Check the fuse yet? Thats where I'd start first. Check the bulbs make sure they are in there and not blown up.

Greetings:

The "Stator", as in the stationary part of a rotating electrical generating system?
I don't see how that would cripple the rear light cluster. They run off the battery and turn on with the key switch, whether you have an alternator or not.
I've had this issue on my own SR. If you hang the tail-lamp by its wire while you remove the rack or bucket, it tends to pull out the ground wire. If you've found your cure, great. If not, pull the cover off the tail lamp and see what I mean.
