Topic: Stator wire ? 78 cb550

[gbal06]

Do the green and white wires of the stator and coil connect to their respected color (which I assume they should) or does it need to be green/white.  Thanks

[gbal06]

Also is the green wire with the barrel connector ground?  Is there any trick to get the screw out of the oil switch so I can connect the blue wire?  When I try to unscrew it to remove it, it just spins. Thanks

If the screw is spinning the switch is toast as the stator/fiels wires they connect colour to colour intothe loom

Stator wires are yellow.  Field coil wires are white and green.  Match color to color when connecting.

And the green wire with the barrel connector?

[bryanj]

If that is a replacement for the original green with red stripe it goes to the neutral switch

[gbal06]

its a rebuild from ricks motor sports.  How does it hook up to the neutral rotor? Thanks

The terms you are using is confusing.

Restate  your question.

Are you aware that a green wire and a green with red stripe wire serve different functions?

The dynamo rotor has no connections.
The field coil makes the rotor into a magnet.
The rotating magnetic field creates power in the stator which gets rectified into voltage and current which the bike and battery can use.

I did not say rotor i said switch

[gbal06]

The stator was rebuilt by Rick's so I am just trying to confirm the placement of the green wire with the barrel connection shown in my picture. bryanj the part pic on cmsnl (#15) states it as the stator,neutral sw. Is that incorrect?

[bryanj]

Yup, the rotor is a seperate part on the end of the shift drum
