Common Technical Issues: KAWASAKI W650

BRAND: KAWASAKI
MODEL: W650
YEARS: 00-02
CATEGORY: MOTORCYCLE

TECHNICAL ISSUE DETAILS
Kawasaki W650 models have a permanent magnet battery charging system, consisting of a stator with three output wires, which feed into a regulator/rectifier. This unit rectifies the AC into DC and regulates this DC to 14.5V to ensure proper battery charging. The output from the regulator/rectifier connects to the battery. Common faults in this system: 1) Regulator/rectifier failure. The OEM regulator/rectifier is a commonly failing part. 2) Stator failure. Causes are age, heat and vibration. Test and replace when it tests bad. We recommend using the fault finding chart in case of suspected charging problems: Fault Finding Guide This guide will help you diagnose the charging system quickly.
