Thank you MotoRandy123 for the pics. They explained a couple of things. I am being confused by a part Scrappydog sells. Here is their description - "DC fired stator assembly. Where else are you going to find these? DC fired stators are found on many high end scoots and ATV's like Lance and Tomos. These have a yellow, white, and blue wire. $34.95" - This is exactly the stator mine had. Scrappydog is calling it a DC fired stator but the schematic and pic you sent are for an AC stator. Here's a little more info.....I can start and run the scooter just by kicking it with the battery reading 8.4V. But according to what I've read so far, my scooter should not start by kicking it if it has a DC stator and low battery. I need help figuring this out. Is the Scrappydog description of my stator correct? I have the exact same stator they are advertising as a DC stator but my scooter starts with practically no juice in the battery. What am I missing here? Also Blue, thanks for your input but I'm not sure what you meant when you asked if I "recaped the wiring as it should be 0.3". Can you explain with a little more detail? The voltage output goes down on my scooter when I rev up the engine and the whole focus is to understand why it's doing that and how to correct it. Thanks everyone again.
