Voltage problems By rsw1158 (Read 1,030 times)

I have an 08 Roketa bali MC 13 150. I recently replaced the stator and voltage regulator. It seems that the voltage regulator may not be the same as the old or not the correct one. Is there a difference? I am only getting a little over 4 acv on my white and yellow wires. I am getting 11 to 20+ acv at my stator when I disconnect my stator to check voltage. If I go to the Roketa site to check for parts they want over 30.00 for the regulator. I paid under 5.00 for the one I ordered, bought 2, and it looks like what I took off. Both regulators give me the same results. Can someone help me out?

Here is the link to the regulators I bought. They actually where 7 and change ,not 4 and change like I thought. www.motopartsmax.com/index.php/main_page/product_info/products_id/499/tID/3/cPath/117/eID/6

this is a tricky one .

I,ve never been to Tested Scooter parts before. I just checked it out and went to my specific scooter for parts and looked at the regulator. It looks like what I took off. Think I would be safe trying that one or might I have some other problem?

The yellow wire will have a lower voltage at the regulator than it does at the stator. It has lights and auto enricher drawing on it.
The white wire should be the same at both points with the regulator unplugged. 11-15VAC at idle.
I wouldn't recommend running it very long or above idle with the regulator unplugged, the extra volts can blow bulbs.
Accurate voltages can be hard to get as they change with engine speed.
With everything hooked up are your lights bright and the battery charging 13+VDC when you rev it to 3500rpm?

what is the part number 105???
the longbow voyager is the same body style as your scooter . When I was working with a regulator problem I found this regulator work best www.testedscooterparts.com/product_info.php?products_id=10562489 not the larger one that comes up on the site .

dw,
That is the problem. My lights are dim and only have a little over 4v at the lights and auto richer. With everything hooked up I have a little over 4v at the white and yellow wire and over 14v to batt. When I disconnect the stator to check idle voltage and reved at the white and yellow wires voltage it is acting as it should, 11-20acv depending on rpms with more at the yellow. I'm not interested in destroying anything else on this scooter so I don't run it with anything disconnected. I know better, but thanks for the heads up anyway.

John,
I looked at the link and it looks exactly like the one I took off but it says it is for a 50cc gy6. If it was not recommended by an expert, I would have never tried that one. So, are you confident it will work on 150cc gy6? Just double checking. Thanks.

Seems I read someplace, some guy had the same issue and his enricher was shorting out, dumping all the power into his carb and up his throttle cable.

Lighted mirrors are a good source for shorts too.

Play nice gentelmen

No worries. Sorry if anyone thought I wasn't playing nice. I am just trying to get to bottom of my little problem. It seems that when you go to try and buy a part for these scooters, it is a guessing game in what you will actually get. All regulators must not be equal even though it looks like the part that came off, the store says it is for your scooter, but in reality, it doesn't work. I just want the correct part so I can ride my little scooter. If anyone can tell me what rectifier/voltage regulator will actually work for my scoot, please chime in. I would hate to spend 30+ dollars for a part that won't work or even worse, find out a 15 dollar part would had work just as well. Thanks for any real help.
