    Default Tachometer problem on Mercury

    Replaced rectifier and still no tach signal from gray wire. I can hook gray wire to yellow stator wire and get a signal for a few seconds. Boat is charging could stator be bad and still charge

    What year and size of motor? How are you measuring the signal? Meter should be set for AC voltage.

    2001 125 merc. Bill I checked stator and is at 13.2 idle 14.1 when throttled up. Guy told me I might have a bad rectifier even though it's new.
