Just replaced my Stator, am I screwing up ?

Ah Ha, So what I'm reading is I should have the stator unplugged from the R/R to do the voltage tests ?
I will do a passive test again and check the voltage again with the stator unplugged from the r/r.
My meter has one AC volt position and one AC mA position.
You guys are great, I can't help feeling like I'm just bugging you with this stuff, and my own inexperiance.
I AM learning though with your help and it's really satisfying and kind of relaxing to do this repair work myself.
OK, I'm off to give it another shot.

Have you read though the Stator Papers yet? http://www.thegsresources.com/garage/gs_statorfault.htm The instructions clearly say to disconnect the stator wires from the R/R before checking AC voltage.

Jim Posplayr has an updated stator testing method. I suggest you read though this before going much further so you clearly understand what to do at each stage of the testing.

I read the Stator papers but apparantly missed some vital info, I will re-read and read the updated papers also.

Hi,

There is a little stator test guide on my website. It should provide some visuals.


Thank you for your indulgence,

Thanks, all of you !
I'm re-reading everything and while I have the opportunity I'm going through the wiring again, rechecking and cleaning everything.
I'm also getting a new battery to be sure I eliminate that variable.
I'll let you all know how it works out.
