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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Te 310 not charging

Hi recently my bike has died on me meaning I've had to push it home, not fun. I changed the battery thinking that was the problem which helped for a couple of days before I had to walk home again. Have checked all the wiring for the charging system and done resistance checks on the stator which seemed fine. Just wondering if I should just spend the $230 I have been quoted for a new regulator and try that or if there is something I'm missing? Also after I cleaned up a dirty looking connector and jump started the bike quickly of my ute it ran for an hour or so before it cut out so must have been charging for a while then?????
 
Hi
Some days ago I was fighting with similar problem. My sollution were the battery. In my case the voltage never rise the 14 Volts and i think the problem was the regulator or the generator. I check the regulator by wiring resistance (according by workshop handbook) and I check AC voltage moving the engine by leg start with power off. I see small voltage in the three wirings. Batery DC voltage was ok. I cleaned all contacts
I can not check the regulator but I decide to replaces parts according the price of spare parts. I was lucky because first replacement was the batery.

I hope my story could help you.
My bike never stop when I ride, only it do not electrical start.
 
check all fuses, under seat as well.

look in the workshop manual. it explains everything. here is a quick piece of it from 2012 te310.

Regulated voltage (TE-TXC)
Remove the saddle (as described in the relevant paragraph) to gain access to
the battery.
With the engine warmed up and running at slightly above 3000 rpm, measure
voltage across the positive and negative terminal of the battery using a meter
(the battery must be charged when performing this test). If reading is outside a
12.5-14.5 V range, check generator and voltage regulator/rectifier as described
in the relevant paragraph.
Voltage regulator/rectifier inspection (TE-TXC)
With the ignition on and the battery charged (12.5-13 V), start the engine: if battery
voltage fails to rise (14 V) within the next two minutes, change the regulator
(1) as outlined in the relevant paragraph.
Voltage regulator
The voltage regulator (1) incorporates the diodes used to rectify the generator
current output.
It also incorporates an electronic device that adjusts charging voltage to battery
charge: if battery charge is low, charging voltage will be lower.
Do not disconnect the battery cables while the engine is running,
or the regulator will suffer irreparable damage.
 
Thanks rizzkid I must have missed that page looks like it's not rising above 13volts (if my old analog volt meter can be trusted) might be time to bite the bullet and get a new rec/reg ordered in. Thanks for the help

I went thru this recently with my 2010 TE250......I replaced the voltage regulator but it still won't charge the battery. I followed the procedures set out in the manual as stated above. It pointed to the voltage regulator. I don't think the new one is bad. I also cleaned all the ground contacts and checked the fuses. Anyone have any other ideas?
