Apparently the indicators out of sync are normal because the stator wont allow enough power to light them together,but both indicators on the right of my scooter still don't work,any help? Cheers

Have a look at sbwnik's sticky thread at the top of this section for an explanation of how indicators work and possible fault finding . Check bulbs,switch,earths,all connections including panel pins and springs and relay . Go through everything bit by bit and you'll find your problem . Good luck !
Cheers .

Had another look tonight,front still not working,so going to go through that the weekend,managed to get the rear working but not working correctly,it's staying lit to long and the indicator light on the speedo flickers,do you think this is the earth and if so where is the rear one earthed to? Cheers

rear indies earth from the bulb to the panel ,then from panel to frame through the spring at the top to the catch welded to frame .clean both of these to bare metal with emery paper or a needle file were they contact . an its always a idea to give the bulb a wiggle in its holder as sometimes there not a good fit .H

I think I've sorted the rear indie,right front one not working,bulbs ok I've put a new earth wire on it and I've had the switch off and all wires are still soldered to the switch,how can I check there is power getting to the holder Cheers

Have you put the indicator flasher unit in the correct way?
I put mine on wrong once and my scoot did the same as yours.

I have only owned a scooter for about 8 months and this is the only problem I have had with it. Turned out to be the regulator. Whilst trouble shooting I tried my mates flasher unit,turned out it wasn't that. put his back on and his scoot did the same as yours.he didn't care and had to get off. In work the next day I went and wired his flasher unit up according to that pic on the link and his indicators have worked properly ever since. Troubleshoot before thinking its all gone tits up next step would be the earth points,there are plenty of posts about this. hope this helps. and I hope it is just that good luck

I'll try the earth again tomorrow then the next step will be the flasher unit Cheers

I'd check the flasher unit first mate as that is only three wires. earth points are everywhere on the scooter,one wire not earthed properly can cause electrical problems elsewhere. so flasher, then earth points

I'm new to all this as well mate.

after that i'm clueless to be fair.

Post by paulmattb on Feb 5, 2017 10:33:44 GMT
Yeah fuel tap was on,either there's a blockage or the fuel tap is knackered
