I just got my first scooter and have only put 170 miles on it and while I was on the road yesterday the blue light behind my clock, red lights for my gages, and high beam light indicator started fading until they went out completely. Turns out the actual high beams and running lights are completely out. My gages and blinkers still work fine. How do I fix this? Any help, pictures, words would be much appreciated! Thank you!

Did you check your fuses?

Welcome to the forum! Yes if this is the cfmoto clone vertical engine then you have a fuse box and I believe it's under the seat area with a little cover over it. It will have four fuses, the blade type and the lights you are refering to are indeed fused. I highly recommend you go buy ew fuses and replace them all along with the main fuse that is located in the battery area going to the ignition key switch. Chinese fuses are poor quality and can even look good and be blown. Keep us informed and we'll help you get back on the road. I also highly recommend a good PDI on your scooter also, we have a good one in the tech section. JR

Welcome to the forum. Here's a picture of the fuse box next to the battery: You should also check the connectors that push up through the bottom of the fuse box. They tend to be loose and sometimes make a bad connection with the fuse.
