+ | [title] Check your alternator stator |
---|---|
+ | [* icon_note] The alternator stator is supposed to be insulated from earth. |
+ | [* icon_caution] Unfortunately, as the stator insulation degrades, the coil can become connected to earth. If this happens it ''will'' destroy your shiny new electronic regulator. |
+ | [* black] So, check the stator windings are free of earth with a resistance check. |
+ | [* black] Disconnect the three stator wires and check the resistance from any wire to earth. You should see a reading over 10k ohms. |
