I removed the electromagnetic clutch and measure the resistance of the field coil as per the CC instructions. I found 0.9 Ohms resistance vs. a factory spec of around 3-4 Ohms. The lower resistance indicates greater current flow and thus, higher drain on the battery. The plastic potting material on the field coil was cracked in a few places also. Does this sound typical? Is the resistance I measured that out-of-whack?
