Don’t have 200vac on my meter ( only 750 & 1000) on the 1000 setup the Stator yellow wires are showing only 11v, when connected to the wassel there is nothing even when the battery is connected

Fast n Furious wrote:As Coaster advised, Do a resistance check across both yellow wires and also do an insulation check from any yellow wire and the engine casing.
If the Wassel is short circuit, it will drag down any measurement of the AC "in" value. So disconnect the yellow wires from the regulator and then connect your meter to these wires and set the AC 750V range.
Start the engine.
When revved out you should see over 100VAC on this open circuit connection.
A very low reading would suggest that both yellow wires are nipped to earth somewhere forming a low resistance short circuit.
Negligible reading would suggest an open circuit coil or wire.

Measure battery voltage.
Start bike.
Rev to 3000rpm (ish)
Measure battery voltage
If the battery voltage is higher with motor running, then that's good. If it's lower, then it's bad, in other words, not charging.

What was the fault in the end?
