Remove Old Regulator
1) Disconnect negative battery terminal
2) Unplug regulator/stator
connectors.
3) Disconnect regulator B+
wire from the main circuit breaker located under the seat.
4) Disconnect regulator GND.
Wire from the ¼’ ground stud located under the seat.
Take note of the wire routing
and cut the necessary wire ties and remove wires.
Note: if you tie a piece of fishing line to the ring terminal
of old regulator wire before pulling wire out. You can use this cord to pull
the new wire in place.
5) Unbolt regulator and
remove.
Install New Regulator
1) Connecting wires to
regulator
Note: When connecting wires, place regulator upside
down with something soft under fins so paint won’t be scratched.
A- The regulator B+ wire is 50” long. One end has yellow
marker on it. Connect end labeled B+ to B+ terminal on regulator.
B- The ground wire is labeled GND on both ends. Connect
the end with the smaller ring terminal to the GND terminal on regulator.
C- The stator plug has two wires labeled AC. Connect
one AC wire two each AC terminal on the regulator. It dose not matter which way.
Note: For best appearance, position wires to follow
the contour of the regulator legs.
2) Mount new regulator. Reuse
the stock ¼’ nuts to fasten the regulator to frame.
3) Route wire labeled “Silver
post main breaker” to the main circuit breaker under the seat and connect to
the silver post.
4) Route wire labeled GND.
and connect it to the ¼” ground stud on the frame under the seat.
5) Connect stator/regulator
plug. Insert plug until locking tab locks.
6) Check the routing of all wires
to be sure they are not in a vulnerable position. Keep wires away from exhaust
pipes and moving parts. Be sure wires are not in the very bottom of lower frame
or they will get pinched if you bottom out.
Replace all wire ties previously cut and add new ones
where necessary.
7) Reconnect battery and
start motor. Test battery voltage. Standard models should run 14.2 to 14.6
depending on what model you have.
