Last trip my car had some charging issues. The red charge (or lack there of) light kept soming on during a dune ride in the middle of the day. I was only running the fan (no lights), so I knew there was an issue. When I got back to camp I noticed the wiring from the rectifier was boiling hot. I think the rectifier finally took a crap after being overloaded multiple times. :no_no:
So I pulled out the rectifier, stator, and split the harness and fond some melted connectors. I'm sending the stator out to Rick's Motorsport Electrics to be rebuilt into their high output upgrade. They have a upgraded rectifier I'm getting and they hould be able to get me the connectors I need.
Doesn't look like I'll have it all done in time for T-Day, but oh well. I'm kinda lookin forward to riding more this trip anyways.
So I'll keep this updated since this is something I have been wanting to do for a while now but haven't heard much feedback from other's experience w/ this company. They seem like they know wtf they are doing though. Finally...more charging for lights, fans, etc.
