    HI

    First step, select the text with the selection tool (not with the Type tool)

    Second step: open the graphic style panel and apply the first one

    now you can use the appearace pannel to control fill and stroke

    LMK if that works for you

    What settings do you have at the character level. DOUBLECLICK on the word characters here to see.

    Appears you may have a fill of yellow at character level that needs to be set to none, to not confuse what is going on.

    Instead of a stroke, you can add another fill and use the Offset Path Effect:
