As a mechanic by trade who has never worked on a scooter or moped, I must say that I found this video very informative. I never knew what a stator did or how it worked. Thank you very much for all the work you are doing to educate those of us that don't have all the knowledge that you do
What he doesn’t know is the red and black plastic tips come off and he’d have a long prob to use and wouldn’t have to place metal pieces to get connection while testing. 🤣🤣. I’ll be sexist…I’m female and know this & I don’t know a ton about engines but knew this much 😂 Lord. 🤦🏻♀️
THANK YOU! I've been rebuilding 70's and 80's bikes for 15 years and someone brought me this GY6 and I've been mind-boggled trying to figure out the no-spark. I've never seen a DC Stator. I've always seen the rotor/stator into the Regulator/Rectifier (and onto the CDI box after '79/'80). All the manuals and test procedures I've found are for testing AC stators and I was starting to think someone hacked into the wiring. Seeing the DC stator on your table and the ground wire and pickup wire with no exciter made me so joyful. I totally get it now. Thanks for making this thorough and thoroughly enjoyable video. Many thanks.
Thank you sir. I worked on many types of vehicles and equipment over the course of my life. But electrical is one area I have always struggled with. You gave a very detailed thorough explanation of a problem I've been dealing with. As you said, there's no manuals or data out there. This is help me resolve a problem I have been dealing with for a while. I am now a subscriber. Again thank you!
Thank you for taking the time to explain and produce these lessons. People like myself need to watch it over and over to get it to sink in , so I really appreciate it.
Now THIS is an instructional video. I was beginning to give up with all these guys fast forwarding through important procedures, partially explaining things, not showing the parts they were talking about... this was awesome, thank you!!
God dam. This is hands down the best video on youtube explaining the ignition and charging system on most bikes. I'm an idiot and I understood it. Good job ! Subscribed
Thank you sooooo much. I checked everything. All the resistance values, swapped CDI’s, swapped Coils, then finally checked the ‘reluctor to pickup coil’ gap. It was huge. Over 100”. I bent it closer and the bike finally started. 2001 KTM 300 EXC.
This video is superbly helpful. I have worked on carbs for years and have been intimidated by spark and charging systems. The instruction and demo in this video are exactly what I needed to take my motorcycle troubleshooting ability to the next level. I will buy the exact same Craftsman meter so I can exactly replicate this troubleshooting sequence. Thank you.
You did a good job very informative I've been a motorcycle mechanic for 45 years and I still learned more things all the time awesome Bill Leonardo have a nice day
I have to say i learned a hollere lot from this video. my pops died before he was able to show me how to "really" use a multi meter, so sometimes it feels like iam speaking greek. Then the stators themselves. I didn't know there were a/c and d/c stators. I work on these things quite a bit. So i do understand what you are saying and will be able to apply it to my endeavors. Thank you
Hey Rolling Wrench, Thank you for this informative video. I just changed out the Stator in my Yamaha 2000 VSTAR 1100 motorcycle. Last year my go to bike shop mentioned to me the bike isn't charging properly and its time to replace the stator. So last week I did it, no biggie right but now I know why they want $700 to change it out, its all labor. I haven't started it yet because I'm waiting for the new battery and I haven't put oil in it yet either. So I have the older stator and I was going through the various test that you thoroughly describe, its a 12 volt 3 phase stator. The stator resistance, was 4 ohms, the requirement is .36 to 44 ohms, it appears low and this may contributed to charging issue. But I believe the issue with it is when I tested the pickup coil resistance, it requires 189-231 ohms. There are 2 wires in the pickup a gray and a black, I switched my analog meter to 100k and tested it. Can I assume the gray wire was equivalent to your blue wire and the black is ground? My reading was nothing at all. I assume I'm doing this right, I think the pickup coil is smoked and attributed to the charging issue. Any suggestions or help would be much appreciated.
There have been video''s I've tried to follow along or tutorials where the person explains or try to explain what he's doing but I can tell you honestly there has not been one as much your video that I've watched where I can truly learn and remember something and apply it. What a very good instructor you will make or already are. For me a manual takes forever because of my disability to reading and memory loss where as soon as I done reading a sentence I forget what I just read. Bottom line is that you for sharing your talents with mechanical community out here who strive on repairing their own and getting satisfaction when all goes as plan because of unselfish people like you, Thank you
buddy yr a bloody legend ive tried for years to learn this and i watch yr video for ten minutes and im sorted clear instruction nothing left out even a dumb buga like me can understand it much appreciated thanks heaps😄😄😄
That is just what I needed to know , the DC stater and DC CDI. I have a 700 Polaris giving charging problems, the stater wires have been readapted to another controller so I needed to understand how it works to fix it. I thought it was AC for a start. Thanks for a great explanation.
I just want to say thank you for taking the time to go through some of the minute things which you find in most videos people don't do it's like people think that everybody just automatically knows and I guess from a certain standpoint certain things people should know but when you point out the very small like the dumb stuff which most people would probably consider that's just common knowledge even in those small things when you go around to the big stuff it kind of brings it all together but I just wanted to thank you because for all of us out here that are trying to learn and trying to grow you know in our brains especially when it comes to electrical stuff the very very small stuff and to teach on a video like you're teaching a 5 year old is probably the best way to do it because if a thousand people watch this every one of them for the most part is going to have one little thing even if they knew everything else one thing is going to stand out that oh I didn't know that and I've had several of those just watching this video oh I didn't know that so appreciate you taking the time teach to us like 5 year olds because when it comes to electrical electrical it can be very confusing and the majority of us don't know much about electrical mine a little bit but not the majority and we don't know a lot about electrical it's a very difficult thing especially when it gets into real depth of running 15 different wires and 60 different places and a mile away in one little vehicle it's making it pretty pretty out there God bless
This exactly how video should be made exactly to the point detail information and he's giving exact information piece-by-piece so you will understand this operation in a hole if you never even looked at this before great job my man this is a real video and I needed to know exactly this because I'm can't get a spark out of my spark plug but I changed everything but the stator it started sparking again after a few runs it's no spark again almost like if the spark plug itself is blown but something is causing it and I don't know what
I've been hurting my brain trying to figure out my electrical system. Best video I've found by far, definitely going to sub just because that was very well explained. I'm trying to get my lights working without a battery. I have a 200cc engine with an 8 pole AC stator and can't get DC voltage from my rectifier. I'm just going to end up buying a new harness and stator.
I have got to hand it to you because you are a perfect teacher breaking it down to understand in simple terms , thanks very much , I now have a much better understanding and have learned a bundle , thanks so much
I say this because I really like following you with or without other people's opinions because most of your stuff is accurate. A lot of people like to do competition with you. Okay cool great but I ain't racing a race car and I ain't got much money
I think he just called it a DC stator to correlate with the DC cdi box for dummies just because the stator meant for a DC cdi box does not have a capacitor charging coil
@geoepi321975 I don't think voltage changes with rpm, but the ac frequency does. Doesn't the voltage regulator keep the voltage consistent by controlling the amount of ground going into the windings?
OP: You probably figured it out by now BUT just in case And for anyone else whom may not be aware.... The upper plastic of your MM's Leads Come Off, improving reach in narrower spaces. (Having the plastics off would have made the type of testing you do in this video A Lot easier. And avoid the need to use the extra connectors at 12:08.) They either twist or unscrew off, ultimately exposing more of the Metal Tip. Hope that made sense.
I just did a 97 arctic cat pantera stator because there was no spark. It only has 3 yellow wires coming from it and thats it. I looked up the specs in a service manual which was .0280 ohms. When I measured it showed me 0.4 ohms. I didn't trust it. Nothing looked to be wrong with the stator. No smell of burn, nothing melted ect. SO I put it back in and figured out my own test. From what I learned it didn't matter any combination of wires. I put a meter across all the wire combinations and cranked the engine. Every combination gave me a voltage of about 9-10 volts. (this is because its not running. Running the voltage will go higher) This is how I knew that the stator was good. Anyway, it ended up being a bad ground to the CDI box. Runs like a champ.
Hi👋👋I've watch your previous carburetor video!not like the others , they just want a video likes quantity.they are still hiding some of the secrets know how??? Great step by step learning and innovation!!not afraid to give what you learn and do from you're year of experience!keep up the good work😂more power to you and your guys!🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
A very good instructional video, I learned a lot and am confident regarding troubleshooting this aspect of the bike's electrical system. It is people like you that make youtube an outstanding segment of the internet that is a go to site for me. Keep up the good work.
Perfect find on TH-cam, rewiring an old Chinese quad and had few issues, last one (but not the next) was no spark. Been at it for weeks trying to figure it out! 2 seconds to bend the pickup closer to the magneto was all it took. Now getting a spark it runs but not by itself, just with start spray, hopefully a carb clean then good to go. Cheers for upload.
The wire coils on the poles can also short circuit.The copper wire on the coils are coated with a clear insulating coat which thru time breaks down causing a short.You can rewind them using same diameter wire and count the number of rotations.
Thanks a lot. I’m going outside to work on mine right now I think I know what’s wrong with it I think. I think my coil is bad thanks for the input great job
Hello , did you say , talking about stators .change from a six volt to a twelve volt . i want to do thot on my SUZUKI SHUTTLE . I need to know wh as t i will need . THANKYOU THIS VIDEO EXPLAINED ALL I DID NOT UNDERSTAND .
@@lenniewire8029 hi lennie, good to hear from you but i am the organgrinders monkey in all this.. an almost complete mystery,, think you need to add to the add a comment box to get to Mr Wrench hisself.. c
I'm currently working on a Zephyr 750, for my channel. Getting no spark, so trying to go through everything to find the fault. Thanks for the explanation 👍
Good stuff. Very informative for a random video popping up. Working on my TDub and replacing the '01 stator for a new one, just because its apart anyway.
First time commenting/liking/subbing bc ur video was mint bro. Very in depth and to the point,, wish I found this video a long time ago.. keep up the good stuff and thanks!
Hi, first of all, thank you very much for the very clear video. Unfortunately I have a different type of stator so my value will differ. How do I find out the spec (value) so that I can measure it?
Maybe somebody knows, my 12 pole DC stator is giving out 15Vac per wire at idle and "only" ~25Vac per wire at WOT. My scooter has a charging issue. But the Stator has been replaced recently. Could the flywheel be the issue?
Thank you so much for this ultra thorough video. Now I totally understand how the stator and electrical ignition systems work, plus how to test and troubleshoot. I wrote down some notes for future reference as well. This video is the “go to” on TH-cam for stators. Thank you again!!
@@RollingWrench My pleasure. You took the time to share your knowledge, create, edit and post a video. It’s the least I can do. I watched your video six months ago but came back tonight to watch it again. Keep up the good work and thank you!
Thanks for the info, easy to follow. I don't have spark. 8 coil type. I have 45 volts ac from the exciter, but I don't get any ohms reading on this stator and also a spare that I have What am I doing wrong?
Thank you great teacher. I just bought a new vader 125cc. It's in the crate still. Binge watching your vader 190cc build. Wow what a awesome bike ! I want that !
The probes(AKA test leads or leads) on the multimeter have caps on them. That's why you only have a little bit of metal probe showing, if you remove the cap you'll get the rest of the probe length.
That first stator is the one Iv just put on my 155cc pit bike, so I can run lights, as stock they are just a 2 pole stator for ignition only, Iv modified a gy6 scooter loom, some china Enduro front light and rear light and $20 indicator lights, cheap china switch gear and a small gel battery mounted under left side no plate, it's registered as a 50 cc Forza scooter here in New Zealand, and It's got a motard 12-inch wheel kit and extra rear calliper and KTM hydro clutch on the left under the clutch for rear brake as I love wheelies and in summer it runs on the road on slicks most days,kills everything off the lights with a hole shot lol
I have a non starting GY6, with a DC cdi. It has a very weak spark, and there is no spark when I use the kick starter, I know it’s not good for it, but when I turn the engine over using a power drill it does spark, but it’s very weak, and it won’t start. I’m using a drill since the battery is totally dead. Since my bike has a DC cdi, does the bike need a working battery for it to start?
Electricity is generated when magnets force atoms in a conductor to destabilize and cough up electrons like a football player fumbling a ball. The loose electrons are then captured by the magnets and swept along in a stream for the touchdown.

can i use the power from stator to rectifier into a headlight?
a bit late to ask.
Hi any word on the timing coil voltage out put ? And will decrease the reluctor gap increase that
@@williamhaskellhaskell3162voltage is dependent on the rpm but is low the trigger voltage

Good stuff. Very informative for a random video popping up. Working on my TDub and replacing the '01 stator for a new one, just because its apart anyway.
First time commenting/liking/subbing bc ur video was mint bro. Very in depth and to the point,, wish I found this video a long time ago.. keep up the good stuff and thanks!
Hi, first of all, thank you very much for the very clear video. Unfortunately I have a different type of stator so my value will differ. How do I find out the spec (value) so that I can measure it?
This is an EXCELLENT video !! I'm subscribed now

Maybe somebody knows, my 12 pole DC stator is giving out 15Vac per wire at idle and "only" ~25Vac per wire at WOT. My scooter has a charging issue. But the Stator has been replaced recently. Could the flywheel be the issue?
thx for this fantastic explanation it will help a lot of people to fix
Thank you so much for this ultra thorough video. Now I totally understand how the stator and electrical ignition systems work, plus how to test and troubleshoot. I wrote down some notes for future reference as well. This video is the “go to” on TH-cam for stators. Thank you again!!
Saawweeeeeet! Thanks for the support and positive words. I appreciate messages like this :-)
@@RollingWrench My pleasure. You took the time to share your knowledge, create, edit and post a video. It’s the least I can do. I watched your video six months ago but came back tonight to watch it again. Keep up the good work and thank you!
Thanks for the info, easy to follow. I don't have spark. 8 coil type. I have 45 volts ac from the exciter, but I don't get any ohms reading on this stator and also a spare that I have
What am I doing wrong?
Just subbed ! Exactly the info I was looking for to get my Lifan 125cc engine back to life ! Thankx a million !
Thank you great teacher. I just bought a new vader 125cc. It's in the crate still. Binge watching your vader 190cc build. Wow what a awesome bike ! I want that !
Very well conducted now I have better idea 💡 how it works thanks keep up the good work
Thank you for this video. Really clear and precise. Cheers.
Excellent video, from mauritius😊😊
Thank you! 😃
What a fantastic informative video, my friend you have earned a subscriber!
My guy I watch all his videos thank you sir
The probes(AKA test leads or leads) on the multimeter have caps on them. That's why you only have a little bit of metal probe showing, if you remove the cap you'll get the rest of the probe length.
Would it affect left coil from firing correct? Perhaps a ground in the loom that’s made on that side of the bike. Sabotage?
Nice demo and thank you friend...joe from chennai ,India
Great explanation great instructional video all around great job will continue to watch 👍
I really appreciate the kind words!
Good explanation of how electronic ignition works.
I heard 5 different thing watching this big thanks keeping this video in my files great job
tnx bro now i know what is all about,nice presentation dude
That first stator is the one Iv just put on my 155cc pit bike, so I can run lights, as stock they are just a 2 pole stator for ignition only, Iv modified a gy6 scooter loom, some china Enduro front light and rear light and $20 indicator lights, cheap china switch gear and a small gel battery mounted under left side no plate, it's registered as a 50 cc Forza scooter here in New Zealand, and It's got a motard 12-inch wheel kit and extra rear calliper and KTM hydro clutch on the left under the clutch for rear brake as I love wheelies and in summer it runs on the road on slicks most days,kills everything off the lights with a hole shot lol
I have a non starting GY6, with a DC cdi. It has a very weak spark, and there is no spark when I use the kick starter, I know it’s not good for it, but when I turn the engine over using a power drill it does spark, but it’s very weak, and it won’t start. I’m using a drill since the battery is totally dead. Since my bike has a DC cdi, does the bike need a working battery for it to start?
I salute you sir . I have learned a lot from your video
Electricity is generated when magnets force atoms in a conductor to destabilize and cough up electrons like a football player fumbling a ball. The loose electrons are then captured by the magnets and swept along in a stream for the touchdown.
thanks for taking the time to explain, very apreciated
THanks for this awesome Video mate!!!
Great job on breaking it all down
In the mid '80s I bought a '72 H1. I tested the stator by paying $500 and almost making it home.
Have you tested an OEM GET3 stator? I’m having trouble testing the wires since they all run into this black box
Your the man brotha thank you for all your efforts man really appreciate you
My pleasure
