Default 06 dyna charging system
While testing stator resistance test good and ground test good. When ac voltage test I am not getting a reading at any rpm. Would this suggest stator needs replaced?

Something wrong with your meter or the alternator rotor magnets are broken loose.

PS. Welcome Jesse.
​​​​
Hope you enjoy your ride here.

Only as a suggestion, create a signature
line for your bike, year, model, and all the
code letters.

You can add that bike photo to the signature too..

And be sure to make your next new post over in the new member welcome area to say hello.

Thanks a ton. That’s what I figured but I keep second guessing myself. Have the one piece rotor/stator kit coming. Ofc it’s back ordered my luck. Stuck riding the sporty for ten days or so!

That all doesn't make sense. If the resistance readings are good and the magnets are spinning then it will generate AC current. If the magnets came loose they'd be making a terrible racket. I'd take the cover off and look in there....

Retested stator plug and it is actually putting out some ac voltage but under 5 volts and dosent increase with rpm.

One I had out with a stripped spline, I figured they would make good refrigerator magnets to hold charts on the garage refrigerator.

I took and old heavy screwdriver and tried to knock one off. Didn't budge.

I decided to try the don't strike . One smack on the OD and they just jumped together. Since they are trapped, rpm would not affect them.

Now just ridding down the road should not dislodge them.


My thoughts are since they no longer have those breaks, no AC.

​​​​​​(I think)

Don't think you're going to hear anything.

You may be right. Either way, taking the cover off seems to be the next step.

I doubt it's stripped splines or loose magnets.. I'd be more inclined to believe the rotor busted away from it's hub. IIRC the 06s were riveted.
