  • Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

TC449-Headlight switch question

Hi everyone

On my 2011 TC449, the previous owner installed a Polisport headlight and wired the light using a simple two-way toggle switch. One fused wire from +batt, one wire to ground/headlight.

I was looking to add an LED tailight and thought running a twin-wire setup from the headlight switch to the tail light would work... well not quite.

Actually its working in a backwards kind of way. When the switch is OFF, the headlight is OFF but tailight is ON, then if switched on the reverse happens. (like an AC three-way switch)

I checked the voltage across the switch in the OFF position and I get a -12v reading, when switched ON I get a +12V reading.

Any idea what is happening? was the headlight system installed correctly?

Thanks :o
