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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Fuse 2 again but different

Blown fuse 2 again , also plate light , so replaced fuse and bulb .
Turned key on , engine check light on and bike won't start.
All the fuse 2 parts work , headlight/high beam / low beam , horn , brake light , plate light but bike only turns over .
So take fuse 2 out and bike starts and engine check light goes out.
I can't remember this happening last time.
My auto electrician charged me $700nz and wasn't even sure what he had done to fix problem apart from open loom up rear and middle of bike and move a few wires around
Damn frustrating

:thumbsdown:.

Wonder if it could have been a short in the loom someplace and by moving the wires around was lucky enough to relocate any bare wire from contacting other wire/frame.
 
Found it! Bloody crap engineering / wiring route
I'll post pics tommorrow but you were right LED .
The loom had rubbed through between subframe and fuel tank
Behind red plastic .
The wires were of course the number plate bulb.
Could only just move loom enough to see rub mark.
Weird that bike wouldn't start but lights worked , great safety feature I suppose.
Not an easy fix but not impossible.
I'm pissed off that my sparky didn't look hard enough 15 months ago.
This was the problem all along.
