Beginner taking on first project. With y’all’s help of course ;P

Well, it seems this is turning out to be a lot more difficult to than I originally thought it would be. Mostly in regards to the wiring of the machine. The wiring harness was so brittle and wires kept breaking so regrettably i stripped the wiring harness. This was probably a mistake but not much to do about it at this point. Now i have been struggling to figure out the wiring diagram for my engine. I found a great video on you tube that explains the steps fairly well. However, my machine is slightly different than the video.
I have a AC cdi, 3/3 6 wire rectifier(three yellow,red,white,green) and an 11 pole stator. I have followed this diagram except changing my power input to the cdi coming from the red and black bullet connector on the stator. I have matched a place for all my wires except the white wire from regulator and the black wire from my ignition switch ( accessories wire). Also, i can not find the resistor anywhere on this engine. I don’t want to spend a fortune on fixing this engine because i ultimately want the put a more powerful engine in it. In due time of course..

You can delete the entire ignition It uses now and build an ignition system for $35 in dc format instead of the ac system it uses now.

But I would only do that if your stator or AC cdi box is bad.

It’s a bit of work to convert the CDI so it’s not really a recommendation for a beginner.

BUT in the long run if you decide to go that route wait a day or two till MY DC CDI ignition shows up in the mail.. The wiring is the same for that gy6 style buggy.

Edit: day #1 score! I want a buggy like that to mess around with.

I do know this

-Two pulse coil wires from pulse coil CONNECT to cdi
-Two pulse coil low volt pulse signal wires to SEND PULSE to the CDI
-Coil wire
-Theres probably a CDI ground wire in there somewhere..

I have a portable AC cdi box we would just pin your two pulse coil wires pin the pulse send wires and hook up my coil and plug and hit the starter button.

I have matched a place for all my wires except the white wire from regulator and the black wire from my ignition switch ( accessories wire).

White may very likely be "high beam" bypass or just a light on in general.

What I mean is something like the 1968-1978 ish Honda bikes all had which was your standard 3 wires to the rectifier plus a chassis ground since it was a selenium unit (the regulator was a separate part entirely let's assume for a simplified explanation that it wasn't) a yellow up to the key for charging, and a yellow/white up to the high beam switch.

What this configuration meant was that the charging system only really ran on 2 of the 3 phases UNLESS the high beam was on.
An extremely common mod was to splice the yellow/white to the yellow going to the key for constant 3 phase maximum output and leave the yellow/white disconnected from the switches inside the headlight bucket.

ugh so i finally found some photos of the engine of other karts wired similar as mine. To be honest it’s leaving me head scratching. In this picture has a regulator with white, red, and green connecting to a white, green/white, and green? I can only see when i zoom in on my iPad. However, that means im pretty clueless on where those wires would go to. Any ideas or clues?

google images for any in depth diagram for that model was unhelpful.

The only thing I know about wiring is deleting it. The first picture is a snowmobile harness..

The third picture is the harness of the quad in the second picture..
