Another stator problem

I found another problem with the Stator connection. A few years ago I soldered the 3 yellow wires under the right hand side -at the stator. bike ran ok and eventually the battery died. Bought the bike used, and had to park it for about 16 months due to an illness so I figured it was OK and bought one.

The starter didn't care, still ran (not fast just started the bike). I had added a voltage gauge and saw about 14 volts but only when the rpm was up above idle. At lights I saw the voltage drop with blinkers and brake light.

While working on the bile I needed to unplug the regulator and found a yellow wire not connected. You can see it in the attached pictures. I cut out the melted plastic and bad connector and spliced / soldered the wire. Now at idle (with the headlight fuse removed) full charging!!

Funny how good connections work so much better! Good you found the issue.

Great the fix was so easy comparatively.

Beats the heck out of pulling the motor!

Good fix
