ElectroSport R/R question--1978 GS1000

[Guest]

I've installed a new ElectroSport stator with three yellow output wires on a 1978 GS1000. These mate neatly with three yellow wires coming from the ElectroSport regulator/rectifier I installed a few minutes later.

The R/R has, in addition to the three yellow wires, a black ground wire and a red wire that ElectroSport's instructions tells me, confusingly, connects to a red wire from the stator.

My question is, where does this red wire coming from the R/R attach to?

Thanks.

Hey Jack, I recently went through the same exercise except with a Rick's stator and R/R. There should be a red wire in the wiring boot that your original R/R attached to. Maybe it slipped down where you don't see it. I think they're all pretty much the same but you need to find it. Good luck!

The red from the R/R goes to the red lead that the old R/R hooked up to (or in the case that you had seperate regulator and rectifier) the red lead that went to the rectifier.

Ah, that would be the red wire with the sizzled connector . . .

Why couldn't the directions for the $120 gizmo be so straightforward.

Thanks for the help, Frosty, Chuck. The GS Resources is genius!
