Default 2001 250 TrailBlazer-Not Charging

Does anyone know the charging output of a 250 Trialblazer 2stroke? And if anybody knows how to test the stator for continuty or ohm's It would be a big help I'd hate to have to get into there if I dont have to.Also does the Cdi unit do anything with charging or just ignition?
Thank You [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]

Not sure on the '01, but to read the charging circuit coil resistance you will need to read across the yellow/red wire to the yellow wire. You should have slight resistance (0.2 - 0.4 ohms??????) - it should not read open, nor a complete closed (0.0)

Your regulator/rectifier may be the problem is stator restistance is evident

Thanks for the info Quad Wrench. I tested the two leads you described with my ohm meter and I had continuty between them.Does that mean its shorted? And the next question would be where is the stator? Im hoping under the pull starter.And what puller am I going to need? I ordered a shop manual for this bike it should be hear this coming week.

You will have to pull the rope starter housing and the flywheel to get to the stator - the flywheel will come off with an automotive harmonic balancer puller and 3 bolts (either 6 X 1.0mm or 8 X 1.25mm - can't remember which - I know the older 250's used the 6mm)

I didn't clarify in my previous post - When you test the stator for resistance, you need to unplug the wires and test resistance in the direction towards the stator (wires coming from the stator) - hopefully you knew this, otherwise you may have a false reading.

If your stator is bad, it can be rewound for about 1/2 the price of a new one - drop Sean at www.rmstator.com an email, he's in Canada and probably faster than ordering one from Polaris for you.

Hey Quad Wrench
Yes I did test the wire's going back to stator.I got the flywheel off .I see two different stators. see picture > is the bottom one for charging? Because I think i can buy it $35.00.

Thanks Again

Picture of Stator> Stator

Also is there any test I could do to the rectifier? Rectifier

That runs for $65.00.

To my knowledge there are no tests for the regulator/rectifier (basically if the stator tests fine and there are no battery/wiring problems, then the last place would theoretically be the regulator/rectifier)

The lighting stator is the big 3 pole part - 01 TB Magneto #5 on this diagram - the smaller one (#4) is the exciting coil - or ignition system power.
