Vespa Stator Wiring Question??
Posted: Tue Jul 07, 2015 10:14 pm
I've installed a PX engine into a rally 180 (non battery) & I'm a bit stumped with the final connections to the stator - so am hoping a grown-up might be able to help... setup a follows:-
- Piaggio 5 coil / 7 wire stator (which is what's got me baffled tbh)
- Ducati CDi
- 3 pin rectifier unit
- Beedspeed conversion wiring loom
- no battery
I've got the 3 wires from stator to cdi connected (red, green & white)
Then there's a further 4 wires coming from the stator; 1x black, 1x grey, 1x red & 1x yellow... where on a normal 5 wire type stator you would only have 1x black & 1x blue?
The 3 wires coming back to the engine from the rectifier are; green, blue & black - so I've connected the green from the rectifier straight to the second green pole on the cdi unit, then connected the black from the rectifier to the black coming from the stator?
And I'm assuming the blue from the rectifier must to go to the red from the stator - as there's no blue wire coming from the stator??
That being the case, this still leaves me with 2 spare wires from the stator (1x grey & 1x yellow) which I'm guessing would be for starter motor or battery feed (neither of which I'm running) - so with nowt else to connect them to can I just tape them up & leave alone - or will this cause an issue or not work at all?
