Sears Rider no battery charge

[smokeless]

Hello,

I have sears riding mower bout 12 years old. Been having some starting issues so i measured voltage while running.

Meter remained at 12V while running. Does anyone have some fault isolation procedures they would share? I assume there is a V regulator i could check.

Any help much appreciated, thanks

Welcome to TBN. We could do much better with engine and chassis numbers, or if it is simpler post a pic of the engine/ regulator if it has one.

Voltage regs are cheap . not sure what model you have but on the bigger engines its on the side and a simple swap ,.

Not familiar with these mowers at all, but maybe a pic will help. Sure appreciate you folks taking the time to help, more later

I have a pic from the left side facing the mower. Just by the starter are some wires thay appear to go under the top cowling. The wires go back towards battery compartment but could not identify a reg box.

Does the following help?
Stamped on a cover on the front of the engine.

Model 407777
Type 0607 E2
Code 050822YG

If something comes to mind i would be plenty appreciative.

Tks, but where is it located on the mower? Under cowling maybe??

Should be on the side of engine the wires would run under cowling
