from one of your own threads: I bought different colors of 16g wire, and manually ran all the wire from the stator, to the regulator, CDI, etc. itistheride.boards.net/thread/8944/spark-plug-stator-all-replaced if you run AC to the CDI then the CDI must be AC fired, not DC. it sounds as if you might need to rip it all out and start over. personally i would forget about "keeping it original". IOW, go with a strictly DC bike. the only possible problem with this is the autochoke, they might not make a DC autochoke for your ride. in this case you need to tap off one of the stator wires for the choke. one other thing to keep in mind, don't "twist and tape". twisting wires together, then taping them is a temporary solution only. i've rewired my bike, so i can offer some tips and help in this regard. that wasn't my quote. I didn't do any of that. sorry, it was late. steve did that, not you. |

The 100vac at the head light is troubling me. Where is it coming from? Take some readings at the stator plug , unpluged green to white, yellow to white, white to green . at idle and at 3000 rpm. John Unplugged stator plug, cranked at idle: green to white = 18vac Yellow to white = 3 vac White to green = 16vac Volts increased with rpms. Did notice stator plug was really loose so I tightened up the metal contacts in the plug and made sure they made a good connection, now the highest volt reading I can get out of headlights, is around 25-28 vac when reving. |

Go back to the stator unplug it, get voltage measurements with the engine revved up 3 4000rpm. yellow to white, yellow to green, white to green. this is very important. We need to see the output of the stator with no load. John |

that wasn't my quote. I didn't do any of that. sorry, it was late. steve did that, not you. That quote wasn't mine, either. I did talk about running all new wiring, but that specific post is not mine. I would definitely check your regulator. Check the voltage at the battery, while the scoot is running. |

correct me if i'm wrong, but doesn't some of these 50cc jobs headlights run directly off the stator? luckily my scoot doesn't use AC for anything except input to the R/R. i believe my old 50cc had AC lights because they would get brighter and dimmer according to the RPM of the engine. replaced regulator and bulbs, and yes the headlights do brighten when throttle is given. |
