"What does a stator do on an ATV? The stator/rotor assembly is collectively known as an alternator. In simple terms, the stator generates the electricity that powers the battery in a motorcycle, ATV or side-by-side, and is therefore responsible for powering the vehicle itself." For those who are wonder'n what that thingy is/was.....:)

lol.....you do all the heavy lifting brother, I'm just yacking on the sidelines.

It is always so interesting to watch you work on your equipment. Most people would have to take this to a shop. Hope your parts are delivered soon.

Interesting video! Glad you fix things that go down and not just getting rid of them. I enjoy y'alls videos

Nice job Tyler, it never fails when ever you're working on something there's always some misc. parts that should of been ordered that we forget to. Lol keep up the good work!!

Thanks for sharing Tyler.

Remy is such a big help! Hope you have a great weekend!💕

That was Cool Tyler! Can't what to see the next one! Thank you for sharing!

Very sequential and informative even with the challenges. So typical for a job like this. And Remi helped.

Great video 👍 That stator has definitely seen better days for sure. Thanks for sharing. Have a great weekend.

And the plot thickens..... Thanks

I'll been the mess up everything. You are a great animal and farm care taker. I enjoyed your video and thanks for sharing.

Thanks for posting! I need to tackle stator removal on a Honda Fourtrax so this is very timely. From what I've read, the Fourtrax is mot mesrly as complicated...hopefully! Great work!

Awesome thank you excellent information

Odd how the melted coils were isolated to one side of the stator. Great find tho. Love these videos thanks for sharing.

Another great video by FTR

Noel Henderson has a good point. I know you see that too and will also follow the burned wires beyond the cannon plug. Just an arm chair guys opinion LOL....Another enjoyable day on the FTR... keeping the equipment running....Strong work Tyler!!

As usual, one thing always leads to another. Hopefully it didn't short-out anything else. On an other note almost 20K on the subs. Way to go son.

Oh the joys of older things. Nice work getting the 4 wheeler apart. Yep, just when you think you've got everything you need for the job, you end up finding that one thing you forgot to or should've gotten while getting the parts. LOL I laugh cause I've been there & done that several times over the years. Stay safe.

Very interesting Tyler!

Looks like you worked your partner to hard !! Had to go to bed !!! Or maybe all those treats for being a good boy made him tired !! Lol Thanks again Tyler Have a great weekend !!

Great information and wrenching work on the Kawasaki I'm on this job today the torque specs on the pulley bolt is only 89lbs why the heavy duty DeWalt impact won't take the pulley bolt off is beyond me my DeWalt impact will take off 150lbs of torqued bolts or nuts off and I can't get my pulley bolt off today! 😂 I don't have the air impact like you do I Hate working on Brute force machine's! 😂 great video!

Nice video

Always waiting on parts. I thought it be a lot harder coming apart

Awesome

If theirs an oil seal anywhere near the stator id change it thats definately oil it must be leaking oil from a seal there i only come to that conclusion considering everything else is clean considering the stator should be a shiny copper maybe because the plug was a bit burnt up the top was becsuse all the oil was screwing with the power output

When you pulled cover off, was the stator sitting in engine oil

It pays to be mechanically inclined. Figuring out how things release can be a chore at time.

"Never done it before" never stopped a rancher or a farmer. The 'easy' part was to take it apart. Now you gotta get it back together.

When you put the large stator cover back on. How much did you torque all the bolts down? I am doing the same project.

i just pulled the side cover off and the pickup coil little plate that goes on with the screws looks like someone must have put it on upside down ,it is bent flat with shinny scrape marks ,would this make it miss and back fire , i just bought it not running 2005 kfx 700 are they an adjustment on this if i can find a good one / new one ? ~ thanks for your reply

I’m not aware of an adjustment for that. Whether this is what’s causing the problem or not is hard to say but I’d say it needs to be fixed either way!

What drove you to target the stator? If I remember it just quit running while you were spraying.

@farmertylerranch4399

Few things, the brand new battery died after running all day, the fan started turning slow, numerous electrical items started behaving weird, and the motor didn’t quit just wouldn’t run right so figured weak spark. All signs point to the charging system!

Hey can you tell me what other parts you ordered was it like gaskets or what? Pls answer and thank you

Yeah I’ll have a list in the next installment of this series. Off the top of my head I got a gasket for the pull start, water pump gasket and seals, case gasket, crankshaft seal, and...that’s all that comes to mind at the moment.

When you run into a snag, a 20 lb sledge hammer and a crowbar can usually get you where you want to go. No guarantees about getting back, though.

It’s basically the same as the alternator in your car. Charges the battery, powers the electrical system. I know I know, boooorrrriiiinnnngggggg!! Haha!

Can I ask what some of the symptoms were with this project? My dad is having issues with his 2012 750 v twin brute force , it has sat for over a month and it fired right up we took it for a ride about 2 miles long there and back and when we pulled into camp he shut it off to let it cool , when he went to start it it was like the battery was stone cold dead , it has a new battery less then a yr old, new silenoid hes being told , the voltage regulator is the issue or the starter, and stater , he don't want to just throw a bunch of parts at it not knowing or having a clue , can u give us some advice or pointers here ?

@farmertylerranch4399

If you have a volt meter it should be fairly easy to narrow it down. Assuming you haven’t done anything to it since it died in camp, put the tester on the battery. With the engine off it should read just over 12 volts (like 12.2 or 12.3). If it’s low odds are the stator is bad and not charging. To double check this, charge the battery up and start the engine. At idle your battery should read around 14 volts on the volt meter if the stator is working properly. If the battery won’t charge or smells like sulfur, then the voltage regulator isn’t working and it cooked the battery. If the battery checks out good and the quad still won’t start then my guess is the starter is bad. Lastly, the moment I looked at and smelled the stator I knew that was the issue! It sounds like it’s the starter in your case. With a stator issue the quad would have started running bad, lights quit working, fan runs slow or not at all, then the engine would die on its own. And on a fully charged battery it would have taken hours for these symptoms to arise. Good luck!

@@farmertylerranch4399 thanks for the advice and for getting back to me after doing this I found the voltage regulator not doing what it is supposed to be doing and the voltage before the start was 12.38 volts while running the voltage just dropped and continued to there was 15.4 at the stator and nothing coming from the regulator so that leads me to believe the voltage regulator crapped out on him . New one is ordered and will be here soon thanks again

12V sprayer pump? watch your amps. maybe run accessories off another battery like the old forklifts. i've burned up delco remy alternators putting too many lights on tractors for night fieldwork

The sprayer runs off a little Honda motor, so it wasn’t that. Really wasn’t running any accessories, not even lights. It just plain wore out I guess!

I don't normally cuss, but when I do, it's usually this type of work that provoked it. 🙂

I would be worried about putting it all back together.
