Rectifier splicing

[bashan]

I had an inquiry on the reference site that piqued my interest. I thought I'd run it by you guys just as a curiousity. Here's his e-mail:
hi....I am looking for any wiring diagrams for my znen zn125t-7a scooter for the rectifier/regulator, the guy i bought it from has spliced the wires on the regulator , when the bike is running it puts power back to the battery, but switch it off and over night a full battery is drained.

I can't imagine how or why you'd splice the wires on the rectifier. Wouldn't that just cause a huge short or is it possible to do? I sent him a simplified generic wiring diagram and told him to trace his wires and get back to me. Any thoughts? Rich

Specific wiring diagrams are extremely hard to locate.

here is a link to one posted here, and I do not have permission from its original poster for it to be posted elsewhere, so please just link to it if you use it.

Thanks for the chart, mums the woid. I got some pictures of the rectifier from the kid, it's a six pin...weird. here they are:

The best I can figure is red goes to battery, green is ground, white to stator, one yellow to stator, and the other two yellows to lights, probably head and tail. I'm going blind, I'm done with this crap. Thanks for your help,always appreciated. Any feedback you want to offer, I'm always open. Rich
