Over charging

[yozzer74]

Tested bike for charging I'm getting way too high volts meter is showing 19 volts when I rev bike a little .could I have wired reg rec up wrong to cause this. or is the reg rectifier just broke

[mike the bike]

It might help if you post a pic of the reg rec so we can see how it's wired up

there  should be a screw in the regulator that can adjust the charging voltage.

Definitely no screw on it .I will get a picture on

If its the original mechanical reg you need to take the cover off to get at the adjusting screw BUT its probably just the floating points sticking. If its an electronic reg sorry you did something wrong and its probably fubared (same as fcucked but politer)

What could I have done wrong to f##k it up I don't want to do the same again .I have the 3 yellow wires from alt to new style reg green to earth then to reg red from starter sol black from ignition power .white from alt to reg

Check your voltmeter, I've seen a similar post recently and it turned out to be the meter. You can either check it on a known voltage (like a battery that's not in circuit) or use another meter. Hope you find your gremlin!
