Own a ‘79 SE Special that I’m getting ready to sell. It’s never charged properly from my initial resto, just trickle charged and never went on long trips.
I presumed it was the R/R which was actually confirmed bad through continuity. However, continuity through 4 whites coming off the stator tested in spec but do not supply A/C voltage(<1 VAC to 9k RPM) when running direct to ground. No continuity through case which means not a shorting problem, NO magnetism on inner flywheel ring but not sure if it should have any static.
Manual says contact a technical expert to test stator so here I am guys. Brand new battery, is there a more modern charging method(cheaper) than finding a used $100 flywheel/stator and hoping it is good?
Thanks in advance,
Tim
