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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

2007 TE610 power question

Hey Gang - new to the Husky world but not the riding world.

Bought a used 07 TE610 - loved it on the test ride. A bit banged up but still a blast and excited to get out there adventuring with her. It had been dropped a few times by the last owner, and the radiators were pretty bent up along with the cooling fan squeeling. But overall a solid bike.

Got it home last week and pulled the radiators off and mailed them to Mylers in Utah (they do great work) - also ordered up a new fan online. Anyhow, waiting for the parts I put a new clutch cable on the bike too. After that, this afternoon I wanted to see if in neutral so powered up the key. Nothing happened, like there was no battery. Figured no biggie, bike needs a battery and got out the jump box. Still nothing. Weird. Got the multimeter - battery is fully charged. very weird.

While I get the fact the bike is apart, the only electrical connection touched is the fan, so I even plugged the bad fan in. Still nothing. Grrr.... so......

Where is step one on these to diagnose a no power issue? Sorry to join and need help right out of the gate, but hoping you all can point me the right way. I am no newbie to wrenching, just need to know where to look first. Thanks and I appreciate the help in advance! - Jason
 
Check your fuses behind both side panels under the seat. Also check your wiring especially the wiring around the battery tray. The bike likes to chew through the wiring due to the sharp edges of the battery box and how it's routed.

Thank you so much. Found a bad fuse and its all fixed. Where are these images from if I may ask? Would have been very helpful to have access to them.
