Re: 350 not charging the battery

Hi Ming,
yes your right the Sachse regulator doesn't need the green and red so I isolated them. As the Sachse unit wasn't providing a charging voltage for the battery I reverted to the original regulator in an attempt to keep things simple . It didn't I'm afraid!
Thanks for your message- Layton.

Hi Mark, sorry for the delay replying to you , I've been away. I put the SACHSE regulator on with no change to the output. It only uses the yellow wires if I remember correctly. The red and green isolated. The regulators didn't seem to get hot and the headlight was switched off. I think you are righ...

Re: 350 not charging the battery

Hi Mark, I hope you had time for a decent ride out. I had a week on Tenerife, hoping it would heal itself in my absence . Alas no! Lol! Rex's speed shop tested the resistance with no mention of running on a rig. They reported - Source coil 304 ohm. Charging 0.5 / 0.5 / 0.9. So far as I know that's f...

Re: 350 not charging the battery

Hi everyone, Still no further on with the battery not charging. Rex's speed shop - Top fella! tested the stator and resistance was all good and didn't need work. He said he'd never seen a flywheel lose it's magnetism in 30 years, and to be fair it seems pretty strong to me. But a few of the posts ta...

350 not charging the battery

Hi folks, My name is Layton and I'm based in Darwen lancs. I'm a newbie to the site and in fact any site lol! I bought my first Morini about a month ago. A 1982 350 k2 Italian imported about 2000. It was a non runner with the alternator removed. The vendor believed it wasn't charging. The elderly ch...
