The left front and back is fine and the front right is ok too. I was gonna try and change the bulb but I don't think it's that as the instrument panel light isn't on when using the right indicator but is with the left. I don't know why but that makes me think it's more circuit related. I have been messing about with the scoot today, have had all 3 wheels off for cleaning so the side panels have been off. I know that loose side panels can break the circuit but I've tried putting a lot of pressure manually on the right side panel and testing the indicator and still no joy. I'm not sure one way or the other whether it was working ok before my tinkering  Any ideas? |

Devo. This is the problem I had with my LML. check the spade connectors on the wire running round the edge of the panel to the indicator back. mine had parted inside the insulation so they looked good but werent. I replaced all the spades and re soldered the switch connections in the end and have had no trouble since. If it is that do em all. its easier than p*shing about every couple of weeks. mine failed during my test which was not good. luckily the LML has a beeper so I could here if it was going or not and use hand signals. which confused the hell out of the examiner but he passed me because it flashed once.

I've had this - take a look at the lug that sticks out from the rear of the side panel, it should be plastic covered with a shiny metal part at teh end. If it is no longer shiny give it a rub with some fie emery cloth or wire wool. Next check under the scooter and look where the lug goes into the frame, that part of the electrical connection is spring loaded so that it pushes against the metal part of the lug. You could check its 'pushing back' by inserting a pencil into the hole where the lug goes.

All sorted now, was rather simple really and I should have had a closer look before posting. But my initial thought was: ahhhh electrics, not sure about them!  The connector under the insulation had just worked itself loose at the bulb end  |
