Yep, wires do come loose sometimes, I have had some wire issues as well. But this smells a bit different.
The voltage measuremnt was peformed in AC setting.
Yes I do realise I have to take off the stator cover and have a look inside.
Not designed to last for 30 years ? Hahaha. Even if they were not meant to last for 30 years, they do. They are bullet proof simple machines which runs and runs.
This is my go to work bike specially purchased for that. It doesnt matter if it rains or snows on it. It usually runs quite good. Even though the starter only manage to fire it up during summer.
I bought it some years ago and God knows what the the other owners have done to it. I managed to get everything working and so far it has just ran and ran, from the snow melts away in March/April until it starts snowing again in Dec.
I have changed some stuff like handle controls, speedometer and some wiring which was poor due to age or poor workmanship. But no major issues.
I plan to run it for many years more, just to see how long it would last.
