Need to see if anyone can tell
Need to see if anyone can tell me what the resistance readings are for a CDI stator part #174-5255. I had an earlier posting about the merc 402 motor that this stator is on loosing fire. I did voltage checks on the stator with the starter cranking the motor. Had only 15vac out of the dual red wire and the blue. One of those 2 is supposed to be putting out about 160v ac to the switchbox. The only thing I have to go off of on the stator resistance readings is the repair manual that has them for the mercury stator which is supposed to be about 5000 ohms between blue wire and ground. Im only getting about 50 ohms on the blue wire. The dual red wires check out as they are supposed to be at 50 ohms. The stator doesnt show physical signs of being bad. Anyone here able to help out or point me in the right direction for some answers other than the repair shop?
