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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

AF-XIED Beta for Husqvarna TR650

Nightrider is trying to identify R1200 Harness Adapter Cables with code "120314" on them. This code is located on the cable label on the last line. We have found a few of these cables that were wired "upside down" at the Control Unit end. Total effected harness Adapters is less than 28 units. Not all harness are incorrect. The most likely effected units would have been sold between 05-Dec-2014 and 01-Jun-2015

A visual check of wire colors should match between the Control Unit into the Harness Adapter.
Incorrect wiring is Yellow, Red, Black on the Keyed (double notch) side of the white connector.
Symptoms would be the AFXIED control unit showing only the yellow/green LED on solid after the units startup sequence and the engine running.

Any Rider with these cables can get a free exchange.

Effected bikes may be anything But R1150 and R1100. This includes R1200, F800, K-series, Husqvarna.

So that was the problem with my AF-XIED then?
 
I've been posting on AdvRider regarding my issues with my Strada and the AF-XIED that was installed after I'd been running one on my Terra. I've just been riding the Terra here in Idaho at 5k elevation with no issues other than the slight lag - non linear response to the throttle. I'll be back in Washington before the end of the month and will see if I have one of the faulty units on the Strada. It's been dieing at almost every stop, will die if the clutch is pulled in at roughly 2500 rpm and below, backfires on decel from 2500 rpm on down. And, in the 2000- 2500 rpm surges and bucks. It idles fine on restart. If the clutch is pulled in at 3000 rpm it drops to a normal idle. However, the only symptom that is significantly better when the AF-XIED is removed and the stock harness is restored is that the engine doesn't die -- the backfire still remains. I have none of these issues with the Terra. Both the Terra and the Strada have the cannisterectomy and Pod mod with the stock AIT sensor.
 
The note from Nightrider indicates a date range and maximum of a couple dozen affected units worldwide, but yours could be one of them. Nightrider seems to be trying hard to rectify this so if you have an issue, it makes sense to contact them.

He exchanged mine after I returned the failled unit to him some months agao
 
Thanks for the follow up guys. I'll check it out when I get back and see about returning it to Nightrider. If nothing else, they can check it out to make sure it's either OK or faulty.
