battery is new - still no good - hmmm
ok - check charge to battery - shud be - 13.5 - 15.0 - getting

tickover - 13.2
lights on - 12
rear fog - 9

thats not right

so am i getting a charge out at all from the stator

ok - disconnected stator plug from the regulator - done these tests
check each yellow [3 off] wire to earth - should be no continuity - ok
check resistence of each yellow wire out of stator - spec - 0.2 - 0.4 ohms - reading i got - 0.5 ohms on each
checked each wire for continuity from regulator to stator - all 3 ok with them disconnected
checked stator for AC output - spec 65v + - output 2 ok one i couldnt get reading on more than about 10v - test taken from cold - 5k rpm

if iv checked the wires for continuity out from the stator and its fine - it is right that to get the readings i just pop the probes from each of the 3 yellows in turn giving 3 readings? if ones not reading do that mean for defo that the stator is goosed?

****** car.. doin my head in - if it is goosed iv gotta take engine out to get at it.. cover is right up on the footwell
