1995 force 40 hp charging&tac not working

[izzyou]

it wont work.just replaced the stater&reg with one from merc the red one and battary .im stuck it work when i got the boat the the adaper plate broke.so i pulled the power head off. now it don't work.what went .it runs .the batt was unhooked when i chang the parts wrong ? thank chad.if you want you can e-mail me chadhouston69@aol.com

Re: 1995 force 40 hp charging&tac not working

Voltage rectifier is shot or is not wired in correctly. It sends the signal to the tach, and converts the AC voltage from the stator into DC voltage to charge the battery. 2 yellow wires from stator go into rectifier. Grey wire sends signal out to tach. Red wire send current back to battery.

It can happen from momentarily reversing the battery cables during installation. Or it could have happened for another reason all together.

i have tried two rectifiers i get the same thing.sould i get a volt reading out of the yellow wires any way?.i have double checked the wires .could the instruction be wrong?any more help would love it.

Double check all wires to make sure they are connected in the right places.

ok i just went over the wirers all seem to be right.should i have power to the black&yellow wirer to the switch box? the new reg has a ground wire ond the old one don't do i need it? thanks

Re: 1995 force 40 hp charging&tac not working

Yes you should read voltage from the 2 yellows.

black/yelo wire FROM the switchbox, goes to "m"terminal on the ignition switch. It is used to ground out the ignition when the key is turned off.

2 yellows feed current from stator into rectifier.
gray sends signal to tach.
Red attaches to post on starter solenoid where the pos battery cable is attached.

I would suggest attaching the rectifier ground wire.

STATOR:

black ground wire
2 yellows to rectifier
blue to switchbox
red to switchbox
blue/white to switchbox
red/white to switchbox

ok my new stator don;t have a grd on it .red wier from the mag switch read 12.59 same as the batt.with the motor running i don't get any volt at the yellow wirers .i hooked my meter up red to yellow &black to ground is the right.this is the new stator from merc. #398-832075a5. hope ypu can help me.

It could be that the new stator is bad, you never know.

Disconnect stator wires and check resistance on the yellows.
What do you get for a reading?
