hey i have a 1999 srx 700, i cant keep lights in it some times i can ride for 3hrs and not blow a light some times 10 min and all the lights are blown, the stator checks out fine, and i fixed the wiring under the engine and replaced all the voltage regulators and still cant figger out wtf is goin on. any help would be great.
 

I am sure you know, that sled has 2 voltage regulators and also a dc regulator, which ones have you changed?
 
i had the same problem with a 99 srx i had.we changed everything including the light bulbs about 1000 times. needless to say that sled pissed me off so bad i held it wide open until the heads turned black & still sold it for what i bought it for.
 
i think it blew because it must have been a hole in the heat exchanger but i never knew because i never had any lights.
 
have you checked the tail light harness, especially up under the gastank area?
 
ya i checked that out it looks good. and i checked out the wiring that comes out to the handle bars i really dont know where to go and its pissing me off
 
something must do a load of charge for any reason and i know they have alots of problem with those stator .......
 
That would fall into the intermittant problem category. Something is likely allowing the voltage to spike occasionaly beyond what the regulators can handle.

Time to get a tester out and test all of the components. Verify that they are within tolerance range. A little out is likely nothing to worry about, but you are looking for a lot out of range.

Also test wiring (disconnected on both ends) for continuity to ground or neighboring wires. This is what I really suspect.

I suggest starting with the coils, and the wiring near them..

Be patient because a component may test fine several times, and then test bad.

If you can test immediatley after bulb failure, you may find the problem.
