Zach,

if this is what your system looks like

HH100SSI.jpg

lift the wire (yellow in pic) to the external SSI module and lift the kill wire from the ignition switch

use a multimeter on AC volts (range setting will be for approximately 100 volts)

clip one lead to the open end of the yellow wire - the other lead to ground

crank the engine

depending on the multimeter - you should see anywhere fro 60 to 100+ volts AC on the display

voltage here would confirm the charge coil in the stator is probably OK

no voltage = stator charge coil is bad / bad ground connection from stator to engine / kill wire is grounded

60 - 100 VAC reading = probably defective SSI unit.

Check the back of the SSI unit for burn marks.

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

before you disconnect the multimeter from the charge wire to the SSI unit,

you could also measure the resistance of the charge coil to ground

approximately 400 ohms = good

much less than 400 ohms = short to ground

infinite or over range resistance = open wiring in the charge coil (bad stator assy)

let us know
