I have a 80XS which had a bad rotor. With the old rotorit would not charge at all. I installed a new (used) rotor with 5 Ohms across the slip rings. It no longer has a bad rotor but is now overcharging. It produces 16+ volts at 1000RPM. My Taillight warning light (Red one) never extinguishes and my Headlight warning/charging system warning light never extinguishes. I have swapped safety relays and reserve lighting units. It makes no difference.
I suspect it is the regulator but at this point I can not be sure. It is installed on the bike and as you know it is nasty to access on a stock bike. If I had a spare I could plug and unplug to see if that works, but I have no spare.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks
Glenn
