cb750 rectifier

<< < (3/3)

ogre:
thanks for that basically the same as i have tried with no reading  maybe with the bike being 40 yrs old its wired slightly different to the modern ones i have tested.on the wiring diagram of the rectifier it looks like the voltage shouldn't go past the diode one way but aloud to go back up the red wire to the battery to charge it. 

Lobo:
Ok... the official CB750 page on testing rectifiers.

Your meter, whilst good for other things is not really suited to automotive trouble shooting (specifically DC) ... can you bludge a better one off a mate for a while?

And K2s suggestion of Wikipedia is great... have you tried diode (etc) testing there?

Good luck

ogre:
yes think ur right about the meter with being in engineering the tools i have acquired over the years have tended to be more industrial the test meter for example.i have got a little cheap one lying around somewhere.
