Hmm was always told 10.5v is limit...
Here are the book limits for a static battery:
12.6v = good
12.0v = charge
Under 12v = change battery
Battery static reads?
it hits 11 n holds when load testing...
After load test and wait 15min say... static reads?
ill have to check that and see what it does after a load test..
but still doesn't explain why voltage is all over the place n why it runs fine w stator unplugged...
Let me go thru 3 jobbers in the loop"
Battery = 14.2 ~ 15.1v is turning on the winkers, high beam, brake light on; where is the voltage reading when up and down revs occur?
like i said its all over the place when running... jumps from 11.1v up to 14.v at idle, never really changes when revving bike..
Vo/Reg = This: captures AC/separates the excess voltage/sends those 2 separate voltages to ground and the other to the battery.
Stator/rotor = This makes AC. Or magnetism creates heat so you warm up the engine to test the stator. The output should read 51v @ 4,000 rpm. Pull the stator wire out of the vo/reg, set the meter to 250v. Those wires are the 3 yellows going into the vo/reg so meter prong stays in one female pin, the black meter lead swaps the other 2 yellows. That says all 3 of those pins have to put out 51v each or the stator is junk.
yep ive done all the standard tests on the charging system and everything shows good.. OHM stator,ground test stator, ACV output (50v+)but ill double check that. i know they were all bout the same..
Troubleshoot:
Batt ~ 12.6v = Not the battery
Vo/Reg ~ Does not exceed 15.2v = Not the vo/reg
Stator ~ 50v = Is the problem.
Rare:
Is a new OEM vo/reg = Possible
Is the new vo/reg = chinese made and bought from ebay, but nothing mentioned having a new vo/reg thrown at it and still a problem
yep its new, more than likely its a chinese reg/req but ill have to ask..
thanks
