ScEaMin BaNsheE 305 Posted December 23, 2017 Report Share Posted December 23, 2017 Merry Christmas my people, alright my problem is I floated my ground on stator ran both yellow and floated cables to both yellow cables to trail tech rectifier, when I put my meter on output cables (red and black) from rectifier it only shows 6.55 volts dc, when i throttle to higher RPM the volts drop to 0.19 to 1.55 volts, what the hell am I doing wrong, i already tried another new rectifier and same outcome, im throwing up the white flag, about to give up but hopefully one of you kind folks can give me some insight to what im doing wrong, and yes ive done research, watched videos, traced the wiring 50 million times, i put the meter to both floated ground and yellow from stator and get from 8 to 30 volts ac which i believe tells me stator is producing proper voltage, please help thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keno Posted December 24, 2017 Report Share Posted December 24, 2017 Have you tried hooking a light up to the output? I'm wondering if the pulsed dc output from the rectifier is just throwing your meter off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScEaMin BaNsheE 305 Posted December 25, 2017 Author Report Share Posted December 25, 2017 Yeah but when you adjust to max it goes up 7 volts, i ordered a jl engineering regulator to see if that solves issue, tried 2 trail techs to no avail Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackandYellowBanshee Posted December 26, 2017 Report Share Posted December 26, 2017 Are you running a stock stator? Not sure if that would make a difference, but I had terrible luck with the Electro sport. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackandYellowBanshee Posted December 27, 2017 Report Share Posted December 27, 2017 This may sound way too simple, but it is something to check. Did you reinstall the woodruff key on the crank? Flywheel spinning slower when revved? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScEaMin BaNsheE 305 Posted December 27, 2017 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2017 Yes it' a stock stator I had an electro but got toast soon after, woodruff key is on there, i put loctite on that bitch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flywheel spinning slower when revved? Woodruff key is just for alignment of the flywheel. The flywheel is actually held in place due to the taper fit of the mating surfaces of the flywheel and crankshaft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always figured the key was a secondary “lock” along with the taper. Thanks for the clarification. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZillaFreak Posted December 27, 2017 Report Share Posted December 27, 2017 Take some pictures of how you floated the ground and how you hooked up the wires to the rectifier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScEaMin BaNsheE 305 Posted June 4, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2018 Yes I fixed the problem, I kept burning both trail tech rectifiers because I was using a 200 Watt stator and didnt notice that the trail tech only goes to 150 watt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
