Put the ceramic bearings in hot oil the case and or shaft they gone on in the freezer and they'll go on very easy.

 kersie It's either a bad connection with the switch or a bad brake switch itself. You'll need to pull it apart and check the connections and then you can test it with a multimeter to see if it is still good. JR

ellis1016 I'm presuming you mean how often? If so I change my gear oil every 3000 miles. JR

Is this a gravity fed fuel system with no fuel pump? If so then my thinking is you are not having the fuel petcock open all the way to it being bad, or a vacuum leak that is not letting it open all the way. If this is the case the carb bowl is running dry for lack of fuel. One can test this easily by removing the fuel line to the filter and then applying vacuum to the vacuum line to see if gas flows freely and a good steady stream. vacuum can be applied by using a big syringe or by putting suction on it with your mouth. Be sure to put something under the fuel line to catch the fuel.

Not so ellpee CDI, or Capacitor Discharge Ignition is composed of an electrical transformer, a rectifier, a capacitor and a series of circuits. Capable of producing a high-voltage spark to insure a strong combustion, the CDI requires an adequate power source either from a battery (DC Type) or the stator (AC Type). The ignition timing is a preset interval used to fire the spark plug at the right time to maximise combustion. On most scooters, timing is set a few degrees before the engine's piston reaches the top of its travel, referred to as Top Dead Center, and is often triggered by a magnetic or mechanical trigger circuit which is the pulse coil. This circuit stops the charging cycle of the capacitor, discharging the energy stored within the capacitor through the ignition coil wire. Ultimately, the high-voltage current is transmitted into the spark plug to create a spark at its tip to create combustion. In other words the CDI is charged by an electrical source and it discharges a high voltage to the coil and does so every revolution of the flywheel at the right time. The magnet on the flywheel is located to pass under the pulse coil right at TDC and tell the CDI to discharge it's power to the coil which in turn sends even a higher voltage to the spark plug to make it fire. The pulse coil on the stator is the unit that tells the sparkplug when to fire. JR |

Listen terryspa there is one thing I want you to check and it's the battery. This is a DC type CDI system and if the battery is weak it can effect the spark. Take a reading on the battery with a volt meter, you need 12Vdc or higher. If it is below that charger the battery for 4 to 6 hours with a slow charger and then let it sit for one hour and take a reading then. I have seen these scooters start with a low voltage battery but since it is a DC type CDI system then the CDI gets it's power from the battery and not the stator so a weak battery can make the CDI produce a weak spark.

OK smart6316 one thing is very obvious here and it's the battery. The clicking sound and barely turning over is a dead give away. Do you have a battery charger and a volt meter? If so charge the battery slowly for about 4 to 6 hours, take it off the charger and let it sit for one hour then take a voltage reading with the meter. You will ant it to be at 12.5Vdc or higher, if not then you need a battery. JR |

OK smart6316 then it is as I suspected. So we need to know where the red/yellow goes, it should go to the starter relay solenoid at least one side. If it does then I need to know what the other side goes to? What I mean is naturally the starter relay has two wires a positive and a negative. Now on all scooter systems you can see by this diagram how the starting system works:  So what I need you to do is this, trace the red/yellow to where it goes and test the green/yellow and by that I mean turn the key on and press a brake lever and using a volt meter see if you have 12Vdc+ on the green/yellow wire. If the red/yellow does indeed go to the starter relay then I need to know what color the other or second wire to the starter relay is? JR |

First picture I guess is kill button wiring? Is so Green = ground Red/White = kill wire to the CDI,. You need to trace it, it's possible it ties into the Black/White off the key switch if so then that's fine. Make sure the Green goes to ground. Second picture I guess is start button? If so one wire is for sure going to the starter relay solenoid = Red/Yellow Now the other wire which appears Green/Yellow is totally out of place. That color is universal to the brake lights and the positive side of the starter relay. You've got to trace it out and tell me where/what it is going to? Someone has for sure messed with this wiring or you have a system I've never seen and I've seen a lot of them.  JR |
