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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

SM 610 Speedometer Readout going crazy!

Every ride after about 30 minutes or so, the speedometer readout jumps from actual speed up and down and back. The indication of false speed lasts just for a microsecond, but keeps jumping between actual and a false speed. I cleaned the connector behind the headlight and made sure the pickup was clean at the wheel. Still happens. Any ideas?

thx!
 
I could hit 160mph in fourth gear on my stock speedo. It felt like no more than 120mph. Look into the Trailtech Vapor, more features and not too difficult to install. You might also try unplugging the CDI, sometimes good things electrical happen with that.
 
Mine did that on my 510 right before it went out. :P Now I have a Vapor.

Speedometers seem to be an achille's heel for Husky. Our 610 speedo was acting up the other day. I imagine that one will go out too.
 
My TE610 speedo started acting up after changing to a HID low beam and the battery voltage climbed to over 15V with the reduced load. In my case it does not boot up and give you a blank blue screen. Randomly happens when I turn the key on. Eventually decides to work again on its own. Taking power away speeds the recovery up. Thre is constant power applied to teh speedo and I suspect this helps maintain whatever weirdness it gets into.

I just put a Vapor on yesterday :-). Still working on the tach working from the ECU output (not working, but 8V pulses should I think) and making up some sort of LED indicator light array including fuel level.
