No tach,no charging

like Boscoe99 said

the yellow wires need to be disconnected from the RR when testing for AC to see if it is putting any AC voltage

Er ah.....my Mercury manual says that if the Stator yellow wires aren't connected to a circuit....rectifier and load, or rectifier/regulator, the Stator is damaged. My guess is that the voltage rises to a very high voltage (with no load) and you have an arc-over in the Stator.....we addressed that in an answer above.

Can you copy and paste the snippet from the SM where that is stated?
