The first pic shows the arrow pointing I THINK behind the big plugin. The second pic shows the actual testing of. The third pic is were I THINK the first pic is pointing. The last pic IS the stator plug right? |

Bah I gave up my multi meter is a 9 dollar walmart jobbie n I dunno how to read the damn thing anyway. Taking it to the dealer tomorrow anyway to have them figure out why my headlights keep blowing. Just gonna make sure a stator n regulator test is what they do first. Wonder if all that will be covered by warranty. |

A $8 walmart meter should work fine, you don't need it to do much or do it well. Slap it on the Resistance (R or and Ohms upside down horseshoe looking thing). Stuff the leads against the metal in the connector that goes to the stator, and measure the resistance (the number) between each possible combination (1->2 is identical to 2->1). Tell us what they say. Then measure the resistance between each pin and a clean bolt in the engine (or other good ground). Thats a first easy test... |

It was the voltage regulator. Replaced HOPEFULLY under warranty. Thnx to all who chimed in. |
