...From our hosts technical notes...
"with your multimeter set on ac volts, check for output across these 2 violet wires. (photo 1) This should rise rapidly to over 30 volts at half revs."
I guess my issue will be I'm not running (because I rely on the power from the alternator to power everything rather than just provide charge to the battery)...so I guess if I get SOME voltage reading from those wires as I kick it over then the alternator must be pumping out some juice still, and the wires must still be intact?
Any idea what kind of AC voltage I might expect from the alternator just from a kick over?
