Going to look at the charging system on an old suzuki quadrunner 250 tomorrow, he said it will not charge.

I'm gonna do the usual of course - inspect and clean/sand all connections on both the + and - , and install new battery, and this will prolly get it...
But,

I would love to inspect the integrity of the stator windings, if somebody can provide me with book spec resistance?
Also, if there is a book test outlined in the shop manual for the rectifier that would also be great...

Thanks in advance for any answers you guys may have. He's a real old guy down the road that I'm helping out to be neighborly.

 

Well its more than connections - either the rectifier or the stator is bad, 90% sure its the rectifier, but would love to compare the 3 stator winding resistances to a book spec before I order a rectifier...

If anybody at all has a shop manual, please take a quick look for me.

 

I will try to get back with You this weekend. I'll scan a page or two from my book.

 

Thanks alot Sisco, I sent you a PM.

 

stator specs, for future search reference: .1-1.0 ohms across each winding (yellow to yellow)


Thanks Sisco!!

 

I was just wondering if You had any luck. Let Us know. Thanks.
