A magneto charging system is a type of ignition system used primarily in small engines, such as those found in motorcycles, lawnmowers, and certain aircraft. It generates electrical power through electromagnetic induction, utilizing a rotating magnet and coil to produce voltage. This system is self-sufficient, eliminating the need for a battery to power the ignition, making it reliable for applications where weight and simplicity are crucial. Magnetos are known for their durability and ability to function in various conditions without external electrical sources.
The three circuits of a magneto are the primary circuit, secondary circuit, and charging circuit. The primary circuit controls the generation of an electrical current, the secondary circuit amplifies the voltage output, and the charging circuit ensures the magneto stays charged for optimal performance.
If the P-lead is grounded, the magneto doesn't generate spark. Basically it turns the engine on and off.
According to Wikipedia, a magneto starter, also called the ignition magneto, provides current or pulses for the ignition system of a spark-ignition engine, like fuel engines.
its another name for exaurst system

Early Vespa scooters have no battery and has signal lights. They did it through the Magneto style charging system and ran on lamp sequentially. It even had hazard lamps but it would round robin one at a time.
To polarize a 6-volt magneto, first ensure the ignition is off and the magneto is disconnected from the battery. Then, briefly connect a jumper wire from the positive terminal of the battery to the ignition terminal of the magneto. This will send a small current through the coil, establishing the correct magnetic polarity. Finally, reconnect the magneto to the ignition system, and it should now be properly polarized.
i have u welcome to it robinhailes@yahoo.com
replace the alternator if your system isn't charging.
You must identify which system among many.......
OpConnect Electric Vehicle Charging System was created in 2001.
The battery light indicates the system is not charging. Have the charging system checked. If the alternator is not charging, the engine will quit running and leave you stranded.
