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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Speedometer trouble. 2011 TE449

I hit a rock and damaged my speedometer wire at the bottom of the fork leg. I spread the wires and put some liquid electrical tape in, let it dry then taped it up. It worked okay for about 100 miles then quit again. I bought a new wire for it today and nothing changed. The spedo lights up but stays at zero. The magnet is still in place and the only thing different is that I threaded the new one in flush where the old wire was actually rubbing the magnet. Any suggestions?
 
check the sensor with an volt meter set on AC voltage. when you rotate the front wheel you should get voltage. you can also check it with the ohm setting on the meter as a static test. I don't know what the readings should be but if the ohm reading is over limit or out of range you may have a defective sensor. If you don't have proper voltage you may have a sensor gap issue.
