With engine off, check continuity through the stator winding. you should have continuity both ways if testing before the diode. If testing after the diode, and you still have continuity both ways, then your diode is blown and needs to be replaced. If you don't have continuity through the stator windings, then stator is defective.

Some models have a fuse in the charging circuit, look for that as well and test with a meter, don't assume visually.

    I forgot that there were 2 (actually 3) charging systems on this
    engine. If equipped with the non-regulated system, the diode will be
    found in the black stator wire that eventually goes to the key switch,
    the other wire, yellow if memory serves, goes to aux. load.



    If you have the regulated system with regulator mounted external to
    engine, you should be able to measure AC voltage across both wires (not
    purple-ish one). If you have ac voltage here, but don't have DC
    voltage from middle terminal, then your regulator is likely blown.



    Sorry for confusion.

No spark on kohler generator 4ckm21

I don't have any idea what Carl just said, but remove the little ground wire from the coil and try to start the engine. If it fires and runs ok, you have a grounding issue somewhere and need to follow the wires around to see if anything that shouldn't be touching metal, is.

Kohler ch730s runs but battery dies while engine is running.voltage regulator?

you may be correct...to verify that the stator is working, you can disconnect the two either white,gray,or yellow leads that go into the regulator/rectifier.these come off the stator. You will need to use a multimeter set to "ac" to check this. Set the meter to read at least 100v ac. them ,while engine is running, check the voltage on these leads...should be around 30VAC..If this voltage is present then you can rule out the stator.

Not chaging any ideas or where i should start

Before you start check the wires on the left side of the air shroud of the engine. That is the rectifier assy and if one of those wires is broken it will not charge.

Here is what the book says.

That is pretty much it without using the Kohler specialty tester for the charging system.

Thanks for using FixYa.

Kohler command cv15s starter sping in the opposite direction???

It's more likely you hooked the battery up backwards. That reverses the polarity and will make the starter spin backwards.
