read no continuity. If meter reads continuity,
replace stator.
Stator Voltage Output Test
Use a voltmeter to check the stator output voltage.
Set meter to read 110 VAC output.
Disconnect CPS.
Disconnect stator (6-pin) connector from the
engine harness (6-pin)
connector.
Connect Stator Test Adaptor tool, P/N 5006211, to
stator connector.
Connect meter leads to terminals of adaptor tool.
With a fully charged battery, crank outboard (100
RPM minimum) and observe meter reading:
•
20 VAC at 100 RPM
•
30 VAC at 150 RPM
•
42 VAC at 200 RPM
•
52 VAC at 250 RPM
•
62 VAC at 300 RPM
Charging System Tests
12 V Charging Circuit
To test the operation of the regulator in the EMM ,
you must be able to run the outboard continuously
at approximately 5000 RPM, such as in a test tank
or on a marine dynamometer.
The test consists of monitoring the system’s
response to a partially discharged battery. Use a
variable load tester to discharge the battery.
IMPORTANT:
The regulator requires voltage to
operate. Before proceeding, make sure there is at
least 7 V on the positive terminal of the starter so-
lenoid.
Disconnect the battery cables at the battery.
Use an inductive amp meter or connect a 0 to
50 A ammeter in series between the red wire(s) of
engine wire harness (alternator output from
EMM )
and the positive (B+) battery cable terminal of
starter solenoid.
IMPORTANT:
This outboard has dual output
charging. Each output is isolated and regulated.
Each output is 25 A. Combined output is approxi-
mately 50 A. Refer to engine wiring diagram.

should be available through local tool suppliers.
Reconnect the battery cables.
Following the manufacturer’s directions, connect
the variable load tester (carbon pile) across the
battery terminals.

WARNING
Excessive battery discharge rates might
overheat battery causing electrolyte gas-
sing. This might create an explosive atmo-
sphere. Always work in a well ventilated area.
