How can you check to see what causes it not to charge. How do you check stater? Could it be rectifier? Any help appreciated. Tracy

i think that probley has to be putting out 28 to 33 volt ac at 2800 to 3000rpm for the stator try to take a look in the book tomorrrow

Seems to be a common problem with these 616-720 machines. I've been workin' on gathering some parts together to design an Alternator system that would fit for these machines. Until I get my engine back in its engine box, I'll see what parts that I came up with will work without to much hassle of an installation. You need to pick yourself up a service manual for your unit Tracy. This way you can perform some testing if need be and familiarize yourself with the machine better. I know in my manual it tells how to troubleshoot the system. If Mike doesn't come up with somethin', I can probably e-mail somethin' to ya...

vr test 1800 to 3600 = 13.4 to 14 vdc measured at the battery. stator test 17vac across the two yellow wires no rpms given would try about 2000rpm stator rx1 scale ohm 0.8 at yellow wires also cannot be open ( engine off )

I have a manual. I was wondering if there was a way to check it without it running? I was hoping to check it not running and find the problem. Are the stator still available for them? Thanks tracy
