I've been trying to figure this out cause it doesn't have spark. Think it needs a new stator but I have no idea what brand or model it is!
Anyone know or have tips?
Thanks!!

The Shop
If it doesn't check out, no grounded or open windings, maybe try taking it to an auto
alternator/starter repair shop.
That's a problem created by Chinese that I don't know how they'll fix.
The Chinese Government doesn't want any one group, individual or company to get too big.
They don't want to cowtail to a Honda, or have to answer to a company like GE.
So, they keep the factories making different stuff, nothing of which they designed,
on an as need basis. A factory might be making brake hubs one week, washing machine impellers the next. Nobody but the Chinese Government get's the credit
for what they make.
Nobody get's too big.
If there was still a Cycle News, there was a guy rewinding stators in the back ads....
This is driving me nuts!!

Pit Row
take it down to the local Harley dealer and stand in the parking lot with a sledge hammer and charge $ 5 per hit to get your money out of it.
The sticker is turned on its side if you spin it around it will look like a H.
Just curious, how do you end up with a bike that you don't even know what brand it is? I guess we just don't see to many Chinese bikes around here but it puzzles me.
That piece of crap meter is all you need.
Turn it to ohms.
Touch the 2 lead tips, the meter should go all the way across the scale.
If it doesn't, bad meter.
If it does, check from wire tips to plate backing, should be nothing.
If there is, it's a dead short. to ground.
Needs rewinding.
If you get nothing between the wires, open windings, or a break in the wire.
Needs rewinding.
If you get a reading at the wires, say half way across, it might be something else.
Check the coil the same way, then look for a short to ground in the harness to frame.
Get off the "who made it" thing and get back to the basics.
One guy on thumpertalk said 90% of the time when these little chinese scooters loose spark its the CDI.
I can't remember how to test that either! lol
Might just be the battery in the meter is dead.
Forget to turn it off and poof, dead overnight.
And you need battery to check ohms.
If it's the box, yer screwed.
You know Chris, I scrapped a 750GPZ a few years back because water had gotten
into the electronics. Freakin shame they make stuff you cant really fix............
Wonder if they make scooters too?
