I pulled this stator off an old Briggs that was in a mates Greenie and he never complained about it not charging and the other half was not inside the flywheel, so I can only assume it was working, just have to work out what rectifier I need for it
Hi AVB, What surprised me with this is my mate never complained about it not charging, but not long after I fitted a new Chonda to his Greenfield he rang me and said he didn't think it was charging. I asked him why and he said he didn't know just thought it wasn't. Next time I was up the bush at his place I put the multi meter on it and 14 volts no problems. I have fitted a few Chondas on rideons and I have always just plugged the Chonda stator wire into the existing plug and they have always charged fine
Hi AVB, I assume I just plug this into the plug coming from the stator and the red wire goes to battery positive and this should be the same if I fit a Chonda motor to it which is looking like the better option?
Norm, This why we must first determine which stator you actual have. There are multiple configs out there as you could see from the chart I linked. That voltage reg you linked is for 10,13, and 15 stators. Then there is the dual stator which has just a diode for the DC side and there is AC side for lighting.
Thanks AVB, Pretty sure these 2 Briggs will go to the scrapper, I'm not wasting any more time on them, for $450 I can get brand new 14hp motors, bolt it on and instant start So I'm thinking that the half stator I had was the D/C side of the stator as it only has a single wire coming from it. Interesting is that I just plugged the new Chonda stator wire into the existing plug on the Greenie and it charges fine and has been running for quite a few years now
