Hello gents
Hang on, there is some very technical jargong to follow!
I'm trying to get my bike to charge my battery basically, and can't figure out how the cable from the stator should connect to the regulator/rectifier...
I've looked at the wiring diagrams, but I think a previous owner has made some modifications to the electronics. The 2 yellow cables from the stator should connect to the regulator/ rectifier, does that mean they connect to the black connector thing (please look at the pictures) that is facing the rear of the bike? Currently there is only an earth cable plugget in there...
I'll just make it clear at this point that yes, the bike runs! Kill switch works, lights and horn work but obviously the battery isn't charging.
There is also a yellow and a Brown cable coming out of the regulator/rectifier. The Brown cable is plugget into the "multiconnector" at the bottom where most other earth leads are connect. Is that correct? And where does the yellow cable go? The one that is coming out of the regulator/rectifier? I can't find that one on the wiring diagram.
I measurements the resistance over the cables coming from the stator, green to black is 166 ohm, black to red is 3.001 ohm. Got 2.9VDC between the red and black when the bike was odling. The yellow cables coming from the stator aren't showing resistance or voltage with bike odling or turned off. Maybe not a great sign?
Stator shouldn't be completely shot since bike starts and runs just fine?
Any thought or help is appreciated, I'm worried I might damage the rectifier/regulator if I hook it up wrong and then start the bike...
