Still Broke

Does any one know how much voltage should be on the three yellow wires before the voltage regulator.

 

Disconnect the wires and use a A/C voltmeter on them. Should be over 60 volts A/C at 5000 rpm.

 

You can also measure resistance between any two of the three yellow leads. Impdedance should be 0.1-1.0 ohms. Any higher and you possibly have a burned and/or damaged stator. Try RonAyers.com as well as ServiceHonda.com for best replacement prices. Best of luck.

 

I believe that the output is ~75 volts.

From the 1990-1996 Honda service manual:

"Charging Coil Inspection

Disconnect the alternator 3P connector and measure the resistance between connector terminals (Yellow and Yellow).

Standard: 0.1-1.0 ohms (at room temperature)

Check for continuity between Yellow wire terminal and ground. There should be no continuity."

 

tie them together then hit starter button if they spark you are ok..

A great way to ruin your stator.
