My daughter has a 2005 Phoenix when it was purchased used we thought the battery was dead so we replaced the battery, within days that battery was also dead. We took the rectifier out and noticed that it was burnt so we assumed that was the issue. Replaced it with a new one along with a new fully charged battery and once again within one day of riding the engine shut down and the battery was dead. Does anyone know what is causing this to happen.
Thanks,
Don

u check the stator? seems like that could be the issue. since it seems the wheeler is just running of the battery and it not recharging it.

charge the battey. get a volt meter. start the weeler and check the battery voltage while its running. if the voltage slowly dropes. the charging system dont work then.
