Yamaha xs650 special 2 1981 Uk bike with pamco E.I and advance, High voltage coil pack too..
Hi all When I got my bike 6 years ago there was the original regulator/rectifier on the left and right side of the bike under the side covers. ( i could be wrong in saying this ) bare with me
I fitted a Pamco electronic ignition and the got a solid state Reg/Rec which has 2 connectors, one with 2 wires, the other with 5 wires.
The 2 wire connector plug into a left side
On the right side of the bike goes the 5 wire or 5 pin connector.
On this side the right side, is a metal component like a small mess tin See last picture Picture. What is that . Is it a rectifier or a regulator ????
The problem i have is the bike drained the battery I have ordered a new Reg/Rec and did the slap test on the stator casing with a feeler blade but it did not seem to very strong it just slowly pulled the feeler cuage onto the cover.
I also tried the jumper to ground test . Green wire the brown but it blew my main 20amp fuse should i have disconnected the connector.
its all a bit of confusion for me when it comes to electrics. I am wondering if ineed a new stator?? bike only charges from 12.5 volts to 13 volts at 4000 rpm.
Brushes are not isolated with nylon screws
your help would be appreciated very much.
