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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

TXC 250 EFI wont start after power wash

OK- I have a new left over 10 tXC250- got the bike running decent with a Kaw injector and a JD tuner=Happy
But I had a issue after crossing a small stream-bike would sputter and not run clean

Bike ran fine after everthing dried up-it wasnt that dirty

later after a good ride, I power washed the bike clean.
The bike would not start for days, then one day it runs fine again.?? =not so good

So I finally got some time to dig into the electrical system. I was suprised to find a good many electrical connectors that were not water proof ,as well as the bolts that hold the coil connection was rusty and not that snug.

after using dielectric grease and some silicone ,tape I hope I now have this issue fixed.

has anyone else had this happen?
Overall I like the bike
 
Common for a failed TPS sensor to give those symptoms as well.

I did have those symptoms and mine were from a failed TPS sensor. Either way when I replaced the sensor(supper easy) I also stripped the entire bike down and went over every single connector, connection the bike has and die elec greased. Never had a problem since.

never noticed you mentioning that before... did it show a fail on Ibeat and "tell you" about the failure or did the voltage readings just appear way off and not showing a normal range?

seal up the ends of your coil thats been a common thing.

Yes, look at the coil...mine did the same thing...ride through stream and bike would die....wash bike and bike would die.


Sealed ends of coil and it wa sokay for a while.


finally replaced coil and all is fine....for now.

Yes ibeat showed me with "fail" due to TPS sensor. My problem was unique in the matter that my bike would still gererally run good with the failed sensor but at odd and rare times gave me similar symptoms. Part of my problem was moisture in the TPS Connector and that's all I thought the problem was until I hooked it up to ibeat.
 
This was a very common problem for me last year on a TE310, all it takes is a tiny bit of water to get into TPS or water temp sensor. It was usually as simple as blowing them out with an air compressor and the bike would go from not or barely running, to running perfect. I also had times where the bike would be running terrible and by simply unplugging and plugging back in the ECU the problem was solved.
