How many volts should ATV stator put out?
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).
What voltage should ATV battery read when running?
Yes, the majority of all-terrain vehicle batteries are 12 V. After all, this is the conventional voltage system that is used by many vehicles across America. However, this number, (12 V) is generalized. When fully charged, flooded ATV/UTV batteries have a voltage that ranges between 12.6 and 12.8 V.
How many volts does a Polaris Sportsman have?
When I tried to start it and it went to 5 volts, it went back to 12 volts after I disengaged the starter. On those models they tend to have a rear facing light on always for safety. It shouldn’t be a big deal if the charging system is working well. Based on your meter readings your charging system is working AWESOME.
Why does my Polaris Sportsman battery keep going dead?
I have a 2005 Polaris Sportsman 500. The battery continually goes dead over night. Battery is good and has been replaced several times. Something is draining the battery slowly. This has been going on for a couple of years.
What kind of battery does a 2005 Polaris have?
I have a 2005 Polaris… I have a 2005 Polaris Sportsman 500. The battery continually goes dead over night. Battery is good and has been replaced several times. Something is draining the battery slowly. This has been going on for a couple of years. I noticed that the tail lights are on always when the ignition is turned on or the ATV is running.
Why are the tail lights always on on my Polaris Sportsman?
The battery is fairly new, not to say it’s not the problem. No accessaries, but as I stated before, my tail lights are always on when the key is turned on or the engine is running without any light switches on. I don’t know if this is normal.
How to test your Polaris ATV charging system?
This forum is 5 years old, but I just tested my 2017 Polaris 450 HO – the voltage at the yellow wires was 20-21 at idle cold – 19.5-20 at operating temp. Since these are lower than 22….does that mean the stator is bad?
What’s the voltage on my Polaris 400 HO?
The voltage at the regulator was 12.6 – lower than 14. Is this due to the lower voltage at the stator or is the regulator bad? after running my 2014 400 ho with the lights on for about 20 min while travelinv the battery appears on the desplay and things start to dim. have 14.5 volts when doing the test cold to the battery.
How to test a stator on a Polaris Sportsman 500 mod?
Shift the transmission into neutral. Do Not start the engine with the electric starter; as the ammeter will be damaged. Do Not conduct this test for longer than 10-15 seconds, as the. the alternator windings may overheat. 5. Start the engine with the recoil starter and let idle. 6. The specified amperage is listed in Table 1.
Can a universal Polaris Charger be used on other vehicles?
Some Polaris charging systems can be modified to use a universal rec/reg designed for use on other vehicles and for all intents and purposes, eliminate the constant failure of the Polaris unit. I converted an 07 Outlaw 500 to a universal Honda rec/reg and the owner has not experienced a failure since.
