Motorcycle Repair: twin cam stator, meter check, check voltage


Question
My 2002 dyna is putting out 12.30 volts while running. The battey shows 12.56 volts not running.I replaced the regulator. I think it must be the stator. How do i check the stator ? thanks  .

Answer
Witha OHMs meter check for ground at the pins and pin to ground. If that passes start the bike and with a AC volt meter check voltage. At 2000 you should get around 60 volts. If not then the stator is bad. If the stator passes then the regulator is bad
Good luck and happy riding
