GY6 Charging issue

I put new stator in and checked voltage at regulator ....while voltage regulator was plugged in and scooter running....black lead to green ground and red lead to yellow=10.5-11 ac volts.....to low.
Black lead to green ground and red lead to white=18 ac volts...good!
Black lead to green ground and red lead to red wire=12 dc volts....to low!
When I unplug regulator and check voltage coming up from stator...voltages are good to yellow and white wire.
I tried 2 different voltage regulators with same result.......I ordered a new regulator just to make sure the 2 I have aren't bad....anyone have any other ideas?....TY!

Put new stator and voltage regulator in and still only get 12.7 volts to battery!

Doh!

12.75 is what you're supposed to have at the battery. It's a 12 volts system.

When running though it should have at least 13-13.5 volts so it charges!

If the voltage is over 12v it will charge. It's not supposed to be 13 to 15v, that's yoo high and will sulfate a scooter battery. These aren't cars.

I would buy a new battery. That should solve your problem. If you have new stator and voltage reg, the battery is the only other thing I can see as the issue.

This guy knows what he's talking about. Scooters don't have ac, radio, windows and such. Not to mention the obvious size difference

I had a similar situation to this and I've attached the link to that thread.
In my case, I had replaced the R/R and checked the stator. After changing up the pin configuration at the R/R, it has been working well for 11 months.
