finally figured out my charging problem

[Dodik]

Hey all, im relatively new to bikes so dont ask me how but im pretty sure im missing r/r. Not really sure myself how i missed it till now but after i went to check the stator i realized that it wasnt connected to anything. well almost nothing one wire was actually connected to the harness. the question i have is in the pic below you can see 3 wires coming from stator outlined green Y,W/G,W/B and 3 wires in the harness W/G,W/R, R. those are outlined pink. after reading thru here and basscliff's site i know that stock r/r was suppose to have 5 wires 3 to stator and + and -. out of those 3 wires outlined in pink i think the solid red is the + from r/r but what are the other two W/R and W/G?

In 1982, they still had one stator wire going to headlight switch( probably W/G ), but it was just connected direct to W/R wire coming back to meet up with other 2 stator wires. You say these things aren't connected? Follow wires back thru any connector and you should find a r/r - or a spot for one! Bassclift might have wiring diagram which will explain things!

thanks i just looked at the wiring diagram and you are right w/g connects to w/g and then comes back as w/r. i think im good on that now i need to find new to me r/r

PM Duaneage and he'll hook you up. I understand he just raised his prices to $45 but it's still a great deal.

Follow the wiring diagram on my sig line when it arrives, I sent it today. Let me know if you need any help with the wiring.

thanks man i checked the diagram already and basscliff's guide makes it pretty simple.
