Hey Fellas,
I've done a search on "not charging" and I'm still not sure what's wrong. I just finished checking the valve clearance (all good) and balancing the throttle bodies.
Put the tank back on and the battery box + battery and not enough power to turn motor over. Jumped started it and according to my volt meter no charge. I checked all my connections and even installed a new connector on the end of my Sasquatch bypass, still nothing. I replaced the rectifier less than 500 miles ago just for the hell of it. Am I to assume I need a new stator or perhaps both? I can't for the life of me figure out what I f%$ked up. :BangHead
Any help would be terrific,
Rod
NEVER MINE......I had some wires crossed, charges like a champ now thanks to pictures on a post by Fross. :thumbsup I thought I had one too many leads going to the positive battery post and it doesn't look like I hurt anything. Every now and then I'm reminded when my Old Man told me I was "ate up with the dump ass" :icon_mrgreen: Just cracked open a beer.
:icon_redface: :new_all_coholic
Thanks for your honesty mate, you will probably help others with your post.
I'm one of those anal so and so's who put every fastner back where they found it and bundle all the leads together when I remove them from the battery.
I do this not because I am a natural anal retentive, in fact I am the exact opposite. I do it because of the countless times I've done something similar to you!
