I pulled a boner today. While working on my 444 there was a bolt missing holding a side panel. I stuffed on in that was too long and it got into the back of the regulator and shorted it. now I'm not charging. I did have a small amount of smoke coming from the stator area.

Any way to test the stator and the regulator to see if either one are still good.

Your charging circuit may be similar to this one.
You should be getting around 30 vac at 1/2-3/4 throttle from the stator. Hal
PS: You probably fried one or both.

That 30 volts AC was what I needed to know!! I have 28 at 3/4 throttle so I'll pick up a regulator tomorrow. Hopefully thats all I need

Thank you
Robert

Sounds like the regulator is the problem. You probably blew a diode. Hal

Like a dummy I never thought to check the stator under load. I disconnected it from the regulator to check it. when i installed the new reg it was still not charging. Checked the stator with it attached to the regulator and only had milli volts present.

Note to self, check things under load!!
