    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Where is the stator located

  • Thread starter Thread starter GSer
  • Start date Start date
To put it in plain language, it's inside the cover on the left end of the crankshaft.....
 
I typed this, then erased it.:-\\\

The question is so basic that I figured one of those "teach a man to fish" answers is most appropriate.:cool:

hmmm... maybe it is wiser to teach them what a fish is before you teach them how to fish. Otherwise we may end up with a bunch of birds and cats caught up on fishing line. Think about how that would read in the papers :D
 
I have a 1980 GS750. Can you tell me where the stator is located?

Can tell you where it is. ANd others already have.

But for any testing / troubleshooting you dont really need access directly to it. WHat you need access to is the wires comming from it.

So if you were to ask, "How do I find the wires from the stator?" THe answer could be, "they would be the wires plugged into the wires from the R/R".
ha ha ha
A better answer would be: Look for cable comming from under the starter motor cover (the starter cover, not stator cover), the cable should go towards back of transmission and then up and under the left side cover. Will have 3 wires. (if its a replacement stator it will most likley be 3 yellow wires). May go into a rubber boot that is covering those connetions to the R/R (about 81 or prior), or may go to a multi prong connector (about 82 and later).

Tell us what you find. And what you are trying to do.
