I need opnions. problem-Charging system not working on 03 Ultra.Summary - Riding with friends who tell me my brake light is on 50% of the time. Put the bike in my shop. Pin point a bad rear brake light swith. Replace. Work fine. Since I have the bike up and approaching 5k, I change the fluids. Take it on test ride. Check engine light pops on after 4 miles. Votage reading starts to drop. Back to shop. Check this site for support. Get great system testing advise.
Load test battery - OK
Test Regulator (Replaced on Great Lakes ride in Cleveland in 05)- Neg meter lead to neg batt terminal. Read 12VDC on both pins of Reg plug. According to what I read here it is bad. New reg installed. Still reads 12VDC on each pin.
Test Stator - No Ohm reading at each pin to ground. .5 ohm across pins. Fire up bike and reads about 12VAC output no matter what RPM.
Is the stator bad?
Why do I still get a voltage reading at each pin of reg of new unit?
