How To Test a Stator

[outsick81]

Hello,
I have a 1992 200 HP Yamaha. I would like to know how to perform a test on the stator while the stator has been removed from the engine. I looked up the specs in the manual and they are listed as "low speed" and "high speed". Do you know which of these tables I shold look at? And also which wires to test across? That is my main question...I do not know which wires to connect to the ohm meter. I have one bundle that contains 3 green wires and another bundle that contains 1 red, 1 brown, 1 blue, and 1 black/red.

Just to answer the question that I am sure will be asked, I am testing my old stator because I am not really trusting my mechanic and want to be sure on this issue.

Thanks in advance for any help!

Re: How To Test a Stator

Put your leads on black red and blue and brown and red I believe. This is for your high and low side coils. The green leads are for your charge system and they should read very little resistance. I am not positive on the colors on your ignition coils but just see what 2 wires have continuity and the lower ohms is the high side.
