Sh775 installed not charging

  • Thread starter Thread starter Wheelbreak
  • Start date Start date
Just an update. I replaced the stator with one of the Electrosports. Everything is charging great now. I made sure I had a SPG as well. Took her out for a 600 mile ride last weekend, and other than being a little hot she was loving life!
 
So after 5 months my charging system ****ted out on me again. If I charge the battery I can ride for about 20-30 minutes before it dies despite no charge what so ever from the charging system and the battery is a relatively new AGM style. Is there a multimeter test for the sh775? I have been googling around for an hour or so, and can't find anything. I really hope these questions aren't too redundant. I just want my bike to run again before spring. I have already missed a few beautiful riding days.

I just went through this thread again and am removing the question about stator tests as they were already answered. I am still interested to know if a test exists for the series regulator similar to that of a shunt using a multimeter. Maybe the same process?

That sucks man. Most likely the stator failed. Guess that goes to show a series R/R is no guarantee the stator won't fail regardless. Can't blame shunted current overheat anyway. When needing a stator recently I ponied up the money for a Ricks. I'm not exactly sure it's a superior product per say, but there is a good bit of positive word of mouth about the units.

BTW, where did you get your SH775 and does it have the numbers printed on the top? Reason I ask is because there are ripoff products in the market.

Not sure exactly what you are trying to test, but posplayr's overall system test would definitely tell you what is working and what is not.

If you want to know, you have to ask (or search). However, once suggestions are made, it's prudent to try them.

They may have been answered for YOU, but what about anyone ELSE that reads the thread? There will be answers posted for no apparent questions. You will have to talk to everyone that posted answers and ask them to remove them, too.
If you want to do someone a favor, just delete the entire first post, so the entire thread will disappear. That will remove the answers to unasked questions.

I would take all results with a grain of salt until seeing direct v.s. anecdotal evidence.

Sure there are tests although I suspect you have neither equipment nor skill to execute them.

The easier thing to do is make sure your stator is working as per the Revised Phase B results and then install the R/R and confirm the quick tests results. That is the easiest way to back into an R/R test.

Here is a link to the ripoff product.

"Replaces these products"
POLARIS 4012941
SHINDENGEN SH775

I have no direct experience with this unit nor do I care to. It's clearly a ripoff product designed to deceive people into thinking it's a SH775. People that don't know better may think it's one but it isn't.

The below photo shows a REAL SH775

This is with new ES stator installed last Sept?? Is this a gooped coated stator? Do the AC leg to ground voltage test (stator and r/r disconnected).
Where did you get the SH-775? Like Nessism, I'm getting suspicious. Recently stumbled on site that sells r/r's for jap bikes- from pics these units have markings like SH-xxx with prices under $20.

I installed my SH-775 on a used stator back in june 2013- no problems with about 12k miles on setup.

All you need to know is the world has no shortage of bstards who will steal your teeth if they get the chance.

Well that to, but I was referring to the practice of developing "universal laws of physics" based on a single experience (or experiment) :(.

As usual Jim I have no idea what you are referring to. "universal laws of physics" ??? My comment was about ripoff SH775 R/R's in the marketplace. ???

You are absolutely correct. I was in fact agreeing with you and taking the OP's suspicions with a "grain of salt". As you know a real series R/R is highly unlikely to cause any more heat damage than a stator already has, but as has been a few people's experience that doesn't mean that a stator will survive the previous damage.

And just so you know the exact same topic and discussion has been posted about and possibly this exact same vendor.

just found this.

anyone used one of these?

I ordered a Caltric on Ebay for about the same, however, I still had charging issues with that and a no name older style (but new) R/R, so I'm replacing both the Caltric stator with a Rick's stator and I've ordered the Sh-775 regulator. I noticed a weird smell last week when I was getting home after a ride. The bike died on me at my driveway. Don't know if the smell is a burnt stator or what.

Notice they do not show the part number (or where it would be) on the eBay unit?
 
Bike Bandit is a reliable source. Since you ordered the Polaris part number it's safe to assume you got a real SH775.

Did you order the Triumph harness too? Best to verify all the connections before spending more money on a stator.

Again, a Rick's stator is expensive, but they have the best reputation. Most of the aftermarket stators on the market are coming from China, which isn't a guarantee they are bad mind you, but given that I'd prefer to go through a company that has a stable supply chain.
 
As some point these Series R/R will probably be that cheap. Someone with a AC clamp on meter should test some of these to see if they are actually series or not. Tom did a tests that would confirm proper series operation.
