upgraded 11pole stator 7 pin r/r By sope717 (Read 292 times)

So I have everything wired up in a Johnway YY150T. I used a diagram I found on this forum. Everything seems to work except headlights and tail lights which I haven't wired in yet. On the diagram it says I should use a relay and connect it straight to the battery. Is this correct? Are there any other ways of doing this? Currently have all yellow wires from r/r connected to stator and the green one as well. Red to the positive on starter solenoid. White spliced into positive enricher. And black spliced in to positive ignition switch.

You need switched power to the yellow wire on the old 4pin regulator plug . If you use a relay triggered from the white regulator wire (imo) is best .

Thank you sir for the suggestion. Going to go to the store now and pick up a relay see how this goes.

Have you contacted the vendor where you got your parts ?

Here's an update. After connecting everything all seemed well. I ran a relay to the yellow wire out of the old 4 pin rectifier. I was worried because I wasn't sure the battery would be charging. Headlights went on and off with the ignition as that's how it's supposed to be correct? Anyways my battery died while I was testing connections with a multi meter. I just bought a trickle charger. What's a good way to test and see if my scooter is charging and wired correctly? All the yellow wires from the stator are fine. Not sure what the wires coming out of the r/r are supposed to read or how to read it. I'm a noob when it comes to a multi meter and only know some basic stuff frominstalling car audio. Currently i was following this guide in the following post. thescooterprofessor.proboards.com/thread/1365/help-roketa-150cc-engine-changed

What does the vendor say ?

Start by checking the alternating current on the 3 phase legs without load .

Everything seems to be working now. I believe. Had it running with all the lights on etc for about an hour turned it off and checked the battery. Reading about 12.8 still. Only thing different is it seems to idle funny here and there. Stays steady at about 1800 rpms then goes up to 2100. Is that the auto choke trying to keep the charging system working?

Did it have this problem before ?

John

[sope717]

No. I originally upgraded just the stator to an 11pole. So my headlights and running lights didn't work because my 4 pin rectifier. So then I read up on it and ordered a 7 pin r/r and this is where I'm at trying to wire it up. Battery died again so I'm charging again now. I have the red wire going straight to the battery off the r/r but it doesn't seem to charge it. I'll have a go at it again tomorrow. Thinking about just putting my lights on a switch rather than the ignition.

You need to start with ac output from the stator .

Check stator and it was good. Checked r/r and it was outputting about 13 to almost 15 to the wire connected to the battery when running. Battery was still dropping voltage slowly when headlights were unplugged. It dropped faster with the headlights plugged in. Bringing the rpms up only maintains the voltage. Going to try a new battery. If not then replace the lights with lower wattage ones.
