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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

TE510 HELP

Hi all. Im after some help and advice. I just bought a 2009 TE510 and the electric start is not working. When i hit the start button there is just a clicking noise and nothing happens (it just clicks once). I bought a new battery so that isnt the problem, but i cant think what it could be. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks :)
 
Easiest thing to check is make sure it's not hung up on the compression stroke. Pull the manual compression release lever and press the starter button, it should turn over real fast, and just let go of the compression release lever while its the motor is turning and it should start up.

Next easiest thing to check is the quality of the grounds, at the battery and at the starter and at the frame. Take them apart and wire brush them or file them until shiny bare metal shows.

The starter button itself is harder to clean, I cleaned mine after I saw a multimeter check that showed some non-continuity. Take it apart slowly and see hows it goes back together as you work it.
