Default 1650 not charging

where is the alternator on a 1650 and is there a way you could test to see if it is charging. I just got done hooking up the lights and it doesnt act like the the alternator can handle it

The Stator Coil is located behind the Flywheel. To check the Charging System, click on this link for further information..... Charging System

The "stator" is located behind the flywheel. You can check the output by following this:

The rectifier is located on the right side of the engine just to the rear of the coil.

DX3, can that multimeter test to the stator be done without the engin running?

The resistance ohm test needs to be done with the engine off, and the leads slipped off the regulator.
This test tells if the stator is open or shorted to ground or good.
The voltage test is performed @ operating speed, in other words full throttle, with all connections as normally hooked up.
The voltage/operational test tells if the regulator/rectifier is operating correctly
Hope this helps

I am curious if your has the same condition a mine.

It charges when the engine is running, howver, if the lights are on, or even if the electric clutch is engaged, it won't charge.

Is yours doing that?

If it isn't is there anyone that has experienced this before? I am going to test everything as pointed out in the post, and check the grounds.

Thanks.

Default is there a disconnected test for the rectifier?

I have a very very similar problem with my 1200. electrical system will not keep up with the basic demands. (no lights). I have 28vac at rectifier input running, no load except coil, but have 12.8vdc (likely due to fresh charged battery settled out at 12.8vdc. ). I would assume.... we all know how that ends up:biggrin2.gif:..... that I should have 13+vdc out of rectifier. Can we test the rectifier , or is it an inherently undercapable system? I want to put lights on, but expect to get stuck out somewhere at night.

With the motor running WOT, check the center wire of the three wire plug of the Rectifier with a multimeter. You should have 13.7 Volts DC (Max). If the Stator is putting out correctly you should have +28 Volts AC across the two outer stator wires.

ok as said before, no assumptions. I do have 28vac across outside leads of the rectifier. Replace the rectifier now?

What Volts are you getting from the center wire on the rectifier. Your stator is working. Sorry, I got to get my reading glasses on,LOL. I see where you said your getting 12.8 Volts. I would hope for a bit more output, but that maybe as good as it gets. What volts are you getting at that wire when say you turn on the lights, and or the PTO while the engine is running WOT? How much does it drop?

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
