How many volts should come out of a stator?
For example a 32-amp stator should put out 18 volts AC (VAC) per each 1000-RPM. At 2000 it should be 36 VAC (18×2). At 3000 RPM it should be 54 VAC (18 X 3).
Can a stator put out too much voltage?
So first off it’s not possible for your stator to ‘ feed too much voltage ‘ to the regulator….. and your bike does not have a rotor that can be ‘checked’. The charging system on your bike consists of a stator ( which is a wire winding in segments ), a field coil and the rotor which spins between them.
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.
How can I tell if my stator connector is defective?
Ohms Test. 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.
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.
How much does it cost to get a new stator?
Create a Battery-op Ignition System for Less Than $50 The cost of a new stator can be hundreds of dollars. Without a good stator, your engine will run poorly or not at all. This solution completely bypasses the stator by using a 12 volt battery to power the ignition system.

What to do if you have a bad stator?
Without a good stator, your engine will run poorly or not at all. This solution completely bypasses the stator by using a 12 volt battery to power the ignition system. Everything required can be purchased for under $50. It will work on all contact breaker point engines (old style), and some electronic controlled ignition (newer style) ones.
Where do you put the wire for a new stator?
The wire marked red (coming from the engine) in the diagram is going to attach directly to the contact breaker points. There should already be a wire connected to the breaker points right where we need to put the new one. You need to remove that old wire and put the wire for the new system RIGHT WHERE THE OLD ONE WAS.
How do you remove a nut from a stator?
1- To remove the nut, the flywheel must be locked in place or else it will simply turn. You can lock it in place by using a special tool. Alternatively, you can lock it this way: remove the spark plug and feed wire or rope down into the cylinder.
