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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Power up kit ends warrentee?

I was wondering how true this was, but I heard that if you add the power up kit and that jumper for the f.i., that it leaves a code that in the computer. So if you need warrentee work in the future and they find this code it voids the warrentee. Any idea if this is true or not? I thought I heard that if husky is supplying the power up kit with the TE's that this seems odd to me. Any thoughts?

Thanks
 
Yes it sets a code that, and for all intents and purposes appears permanent.

Husqvarna is a good company, I've not as yet heard of an issue in this regard as far as warranted claims.

Don't know about the USA but I discussed that with Husky Sport here in the UK before I bought my bike as they were going to fit the power up kit for me. So long as the bike is looked after (the usual regular oil changes etc.) then there shouldn't be a problem with the warranty. :thumbsup:
 
in theory the answer to the question is ,yes.in practice however i would say unlikely.i have never been asked by husqvarna if a bike has been configured to full power mode when processing a warranty claim yet.that includes a request for a complete engine replacement which was granted.dan
 
That is good to hear this shouldnt affect the warrenty. I found it odd that Husky would supply this kit and then not honor the warrenty. I was a little worried about that too!
 
As per Husky warrenty guide lines. No warrenty when it's powered-up... But if your Dlr gets it warranteed you are fortunate. Now is it worth it to him if he gets dinged for it and and gets in trouble with the Dist. Because he went out of the guide lines, and puts his Dlr agreement in jepordy because of it will the risk be worth it to him?
Later George
