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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

What's this connector? Any workshop manual? Help with lights..

Hi guys
Got an 09 TE that was quite well butchered electrically before I got it. I wouldnt mind sorting out a few queries with it:

Near the fuses is a large electrical connector, 3 wires in: Black, White/Black and Yellow. The end's capped off. What's this connector for?

Where can I download the 2009 service manual? I've got the 2011 one but some things seem different..

The head and dipped bean on this bike don't work, neither does tbrake light. I get a constant 3 volts aoss the terminals for the brake light regardless of barking or not. Havent tested the headlight yet, but was wondering; is there something I don't know about this.. Like the headlights only stand a chance at running when the engine is active.. ?
 
there is a thread that has manuals you can download http://www.cafehusky.com/threads/husky-shop-manuals-spec-sheets-and-more.17158/

Off the top of my head- the connector you speak of sounds like the tilt sensor plug- on TE's no sensor is used- but a resister plug is put in place of the sensor....I don't have a schematic in front of me at the moment to confirm. But near the fuses- the only other possibility should be the turn signal relay and that uses 2 wires not 3.

The headlight only works when the motor is running. The tail works when the key is in the on position (engine need not be running).

Your going to have to study the schematics and check things over well to sort all the issues out- YOU CAN DO IT!:thumbsup:

Ahh.. yes that could be it - the 2011 TE wiring diagram I'm following does indeed have a resistor pack with matching colours. Solved, cheers!

So, when the engine's running it looks like the ECU grounds the brown/red wire, activating the coil in the DC relay and powering up the lights by sending the Yellow/Black wire's voltage down the Green/Black, through the left hand switchgear/brake light switches and into the bulbs

I guess then I should test the voltage across the Brown/White and ground (which should be 12v+) and then between Brown/White and Brown/Red at the relay.. Which shouldnt register any connection until the engine is started and the ECU connects Brown/Red to ground, at which point it proves the ECU is doing its job.. I can test the relay in isolation then start looking at if the switchgear has been chopped up inside. Maybe I should do that first, or test if green/black gets a voltage with engine running and chase back from there :)
