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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Husky SM610 brake light problem

Hi.

Got a problem with my brake light on the 610sm. The bike was at the mechanic guy, he did my usual service like oil and stuff, but he couldn't manage to fix the break light issue. The whole problem is shown on the movie I recorded yesterday evening in the garage.

So... when engine is OFF - the rear light is on all the time (front light is out), and when i press both the front and rear (foot) levers, the brake light goes ON; so it works as it should, when the engine is ON, but...
When I start the engine, the rear light is still ON, as it should, but the break light dosen't want to work, nothing happens. I'm out of ideas, I have checked the cabels, connections, I don't know what is wrong, and I wont ride like that. I cry for help, please! :D

For the brake light not working while the bike is running (and vibrating), I'd look for a broken wire between the fuse at the steering head and the tail light. Make note of the wire color changes at each harness connector (the front section is one color, the mid section is another color, and the rear section is yet another color on my 07). For the light staying on, it could be a simple feedback issue at a connector or switch, or maybe a short or bad ignition switch that thinks you're putting the key in the "park" position (tail light on, headlight off, front park light on). Or, maybe you're actually putting the switch in the park position and don't realize it (you can remove the key in the park position). Hope this helps or gives you a good direction to look...
 
Check the wiring going under the battery and connects under the right hand back panel.Mine was shorting somewhere around there.The battery and the base that sits on rub against the wires...
