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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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!
I found this in the MOSS tool
Service display
BMW:
On CAN bus vehicles built from August 2007, the service display is on the instrument panel. The only exceptions to this are the HP2 Enduro/HP2 Megamoto models, which have no service display.
Husqvarna :
The NUDA_900, NUDA_900_R, 650_STRADA and 650_TERRA models have a distance-based service-due indicator.
Date-dependent service display
This is initially set during the pre-delivery check, and then during each service, to one date in a year
One month before the due date the message SERVICE and Service date appear after the pre-ride check for five seconds.
When the service date is reached the SERVICE message appears continuously in the instrument cluster.
The function of the service display is dependent on the calendar date being correctly set in the vehicle. Disconnection of the vehicle battery or disconnection of the instrument cluster for more than ten minutes deletes the current calendar date. Updating will then be necessary.
Distance-dependent service display
This is also set for the first time during the pre-delivery check and then during every service. The permitted number of miles/kilometres to the next service is 10,000 km (for instrument cluster that displays in miles 10,000 km are converted into 6,214 miles).
If a remaining distance of less than 10,000 km/6214 mi has to be entered, this can be done using the keypad of the diagnosis system.
From 1,000 kilometres (or 600 miles) before the due date the message SERVICE and the mileage/km still permitted up until the service appear after the pre-ride check. As the vehicle is driven, the value of the remaining distance is reduced in 100 km increments and displayed in this rounded form after a subsequent terminal change.
Once service is due immediately the SERVICE message appears continuously in the instrument cluster.
When the date-based display is simultaneously active along with the display based on travel distance, the display for remaining travel distance is suppressed. The remaining distance data can then only be determined using the diagnosis system.
Redundant storage of service data:
A copy of the service date and the remaining distance until the next service are stored in the DME. When the instrument cluster or the DME is replaced, the service display data is read from the other control unit and transferred to the replaced control unit.
