How hard is it to change out the stator on a 2000 Ultra Classic?
Discussion in ‘ Touring Models ‘ started by JKJunkie, Feb 22, 2010 . Hello everyone! How hard is it to change out the stator on a 2000 Ultra Classic? I am pretty good mechanical wise, I build custom Jeeps for everything from rock crawling to mall crawling…..I have just never worked on a bike since I am pretty new to it.
What should I know about a Harley Davidson stator replacement?
The Harley Davidson stator replacement and upgrade is being done with quality parts made in the USA. The unique design of Cycle Electric Inc. stators offer: Insulation able to withstand temperatures of 600° F to eliminate stator burn out. Better low speed output to reduce battery discharge at an idle.
How to test stator AC on a Kaw?
Check for continuity between each stator pin and ground. There should be no continuity (infinite ohm). one. Disconnect the connector [A]. Connect AC voltmeter to the stator pins . Start the engine. Run the engine at the 3 000 rpm speed. Voltage reading should be minimum 26 VAC/3 000 rpm.
What kind of multimeter do I need to test a stator?
You will need a multimeter set to Ohms for this test. Test every lead of the stator’s connector and note the readings. The reading of each combination should be the same (test leads 1-2, 2-3, and 3-1). If they are different, your stator is defective. Set your multimeter to Ohms.

What should the voltage be for a stator Charger?
A good rule of thumb is you can convert to power by multiplying the stator amps ( current) x the battery ( voltage ). You can use 13 as a good all around battery voltage. That is a good healthy battery staying charged just above 12 volts. Example only: Let’s say the stator is rated for 10 amps x 13-volt battery: 10 x 13=130 watt charging system.
What should I do if I get a reading on my stator?
Set your multimeter to Ohms. Put the negative lead on the engine’s ground and the positive lead on each wires of the stator’s connector one by one. You shouldn’t get a reading at all. If you get a reading, even very small, on any wire, the stator is defective and must be changed. Put your multimeter to AC Volts and start you vehicle.
