Hi, I am trying to diagnose my 70 hp 2t charging issue and would appreciate some input from the pros
1. I have unplugged the 2 green wires from the lighting coil that go to the voltage regulator and checked the ac voltage with the motor running at idle and it seems to be 4v AC so its possibly the lighting coil?
2. The regulator shows (minus) -3v dc voltage when testing at the regulator fuse and the battery has a power draw of approx 0.3v but when i unplug the regulator fuse the battery has little to no power draw this might indicate the voltage regulator? .
3. With the voltage regulator fuse unplugged the starter will not turn but if the motor is running and i unplug the fuse the motor will stay running is this normal?.
