  • 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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!

FE/FC TE 449 starting problem

Husqvarna
C Class
Have a 2011 TE449. Runs great and starts great but when I take my finger off the start button the motor shuts down. It was intermittent at first but is a permanent condition now. Any suggestions?
 
You might post this question in the Italian 4 stroke section, not the Austrian 2014 and newer section. The 449 experts are hanging out there, not here.

My suggestion is, assuming that by "motor" you actually mean engine (if the motor - the starter motor - shuts down when you release the button, that's a good thing) that you go crazy with a test light or meter...Perhaps the running ignition relay has failed (if it has one).
