Yamaha YBR 125 Generator , Alternator Stator testing







Safety Message: When testing the charging system, be cautious of moving engine parts and high-heat areas. Ensure all electrical connections are tight and corrosion-free. Improper testing or short-circuiting stator wires can damage the voltage regulator or the ECU.


The Yamaha YBR 125 Generator / Stator Testing post outlines how to identify and test the core components of the bike's charging and ignition-timing system.

Wiring Identification:
The stator assembly connector typically contains five wires:

3 White Wires: These are the charging coils (stator phases).

Blue Wire: Connected to the neutral switch.

Red and White Wires: Connected to the Crank Position Sensor (pickup coil).

Stator Resistance Testing (Static):

Set your multimeter to the Ohms (Ω) scale.

Unplug the stator connector from the main wiring loom.

Measure the resistance between each of the three white wires (1-2, 1-3, and 2-3).

The readings should be very low and equal across all three pairings (typically around 0.5 to 1.5 Ω depending on the specific model year).

Check for continuity to ground: Touch one probe to a white wire and the other to the engine casing. There should be no continuity (Infinite resistance); if there is, the stator is "shorted to ground."

Voltage Output Testing (Dynamic):

With the engine running and the stator connected, you can measure AC voltage across the white wires. This should increase significantly with RPM (often reaching 50V+ AC at high revs). Note: This requires extreme care and is usually done only if the resistance test is inconclusive.

  3. The YBR 125 was produced (for EU) with different stators:
    Euro0, 1999 - 2001, with 7 coils
    Euro1, 2002-2005, with 12 coils
    Euro?, 2005-2016, with 6 coils
    Euro2, 2006-2010, with 8 coils
    Could somebody clarify in detail, as well which Rotor belongs to which Stator / year etc.?
