Why is my Kawasaki lawn mower not charging?

Why is my Kawasaki lawn mower not charging?

This is a half wave type charging system and when the engine is not running and the key switch is in the off position, the system is isolated from the battery to prevent back feed.

Where does the battery go on a Kawasaki lawn mower?

At the key switch when in the on position, the circuit is completed and then goes back thru the machine harness, again thru the engine harness now in a red wire, and connects to the battery positive cable on the start solenoid.

Do you need to replace your Kawasaki Charger stator?

Ok you need to run 2 more tests on the wires from the stator. 1. You need to connect you ohmmeter between the two wires and test resistance and it should be 0.01 to 0.1 Ohms. 2. You also need to check for continuity between each stator pin and ground. If the stator fails either of these tests then you will need to replace the stator.

Where is the fuse holder on a Kawasaki lawn mower?

Bear in mind also that the system ground needs to be a good connection. This is usually done at one of the engine mounting bolts along with the battery negative cable and other grounding connections. thanks for your suggestions, it ended up being the fuse holder, it is now getting 14.2 at the battery.

What kind of starter does a Kawasaki fd791d DFI have?

The Kawasaki FD791D DFI uses a full pressure lubrication system with spin-on oil filter and dual element air cleaner. The engine was equipped with solenoid shift-type electric starter and 12V-20A or 30A charging coil with a regulator.

Why is my motorcycle battery not charging up?

If the Battery is defective, either dried out or has damaged cells from age or electrical faults, the Regulator will output the maximum it can trying to charge the Battery back up.

How big is the battery on a Kawasaki lawn mower?

Have 34.5 unregulated out of stator but only shows 12.3 at battery @3000rpm. What am I missing is there a way of checking the regulator with a multi meter? Any help will be appreciated

What should the voltage be on a motorcycle Charger?

Rev the bike and the voltage should be at least in the 13’s at all engine rpm’s and go no higher than around 14.5v. If you are reading 15v or higher it is bad and means that the R/R is not regulating the extra voltage from the Stator and overcharging the Battery.

How can I tell if my Kawasaki bike is charging?

Put the volt meter accross the battery with the bike off, and then take your reading with it running and reved up, there should be a noticable difference. If not, you’re not charging. With your reading at 12.65 volts reved up something is wrong.

Why is my Kawasaki fb460v battery not charging?

It appears that the battery is not charging (less than 12 volts). I’m going to be checking the diode and voltage rectifier first before getting into the charging coil, ignition coil under the flywheel.

Why is my Kawasaki tractor not charging battery?

The tractor will start with jumper cables hooked to another battery. No engagement of the electric PTO for the blades while running. (hope the clutch is still good). Was wondering if anyone out there has had similar problems with this engine type and if so what were the corrections. Your flywheel may need to be repolarized.

How many volts does a fully charged Kawasaki P700 have?

A fully charged 12v battery should be about 13.2 volts. On my P700 I get about 14v-14.5v when it’s running and reved up with the volt meter accross the battery. Put the volt meter accross the battery with the bike off, and then take your reading with it running and reved up, there should be a noticable difference.
