  • Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

2101 TE250- no alt voltage at battery...Ideas?

AA Class
The battery went more or less dead last week. So I charged the battery up and checked the voltage at 12.6v at the battery. After starting the bike, the battery voltage stayed the same. Usually it would head towards the 14v range when the bike was off idle.

So the question is: Does anyone know anything I can check to trouble shoot? Off hand I'm not sure if there might just be a fuse that might have blown. Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks
Doug
 
Hey doug, not near a manual at the moment, have a look at the rectifier it is the link between the magneto coil and the battery for charging also the voltage regulator. Need to remove the tank, maybe a lose wire / or broken one at best.
 
First off you need a multimeter.
Test fuse at starter relay
ensure good clean connections @ battery
Disconnect battery now
follow wires coming out from your stator cover untill you find the plug. Disconnect the 3 wire plug should have 3 yellow wires. Set your multimeter to ohms. Test the 3 yellow wires for resistance between them(testing 2 at a time obviously) You should have around0.8 - 1.4ohm resistance between Y-Y and the yellow wires must not have any continuity to ground. If this is ok then inspect wiring from the stator plug to the reg\rec. Find the 5 wire plug 3 yellow one red one black. disconnect it and use multimeter to test continuity in wiring harness between stator plug (3 yellow wire plug) and reg\rec plug (5 wire plug)
Test continuity between each end of yellow wire, if ok test black wire @ reg\rec plug for continuity to ground (should have continuity) test red wire for continuity between 5 wire plug and positive battery terminal. (should have continuity)
If stator and wiring all check out ok then problem will be in a faulty reg\rec

Good luck
