      I reattached the old regulator temporarily and I’m now getting voltage at the green cable on the stator and passing the wrench test...

      I’m going to repin the stator connector to match the OEM stator. I’m now getting some voltage at the green stator brush, the way god...

      Great suggestion. And will you look at that. The green (powered brush) and the gray (neutral safety) are in opposing locations. Gonna...

      Stator is good. Rotor checks out. BUT I’m not getting battery voltage at the positive brush (green cable). I AM getting battery voltage...

      What about the stator? Also junk? I’m going to test the resistance again. I think last I checked it was a little high but I assumed it...

      Luckily I have the part numbers. The PO gave me the receipts and I looked up the part numbers. He had the same charging issue before...

      I took a look at the screws and couldn’t see any that would score the rings like that. I guess I could try my old rotor but will have to...

      I’ll take a look and see if I can remove some of the screw material. I am getting magnetism but it feels weak. Which might be why it’s...
