Tis with heavy heart and hours of frustration that I post today. After finally fixing the charging problem on the scooter, I did some maintenance and took it out for a test run. On the way back it stopped on the highway and smoke was coming from the air intake on the carburetor. :/ So after getting it towed back home I took apart the air intake to find that there was oil in it and a burnt smell. Seeing as how it looked like it may be the carb, I took it out and cleaned it as well. Put it back together, still won't start, drained the oil and found gunk. Came out running black. Also rather than telling you what it sounds like, I ill post a link to my one drive with a short video of me starting it up. I'm really afraid that it may have blown something in the engine block. *sigh* Attempted Start Video
Thanks in advance everyone, Felix |

Thanks everyone for the assist. The Stator was not the issue thankfully. Replaced the R/R and the relay and poof, 16.50 volts in idle with nothing on. 13.50 ish with everything and the kitchen sink running.
Unfortunately though, I thought I had all the maintenance done and went on a test ride to WV and back. 9 miles from home It seems to have over heated and the carburetor was smoking. Soooo now it wont start and had to tow it home. It sounds like its trying to turn over, and there is spark, however if I leave the seat open, I can smell the attempt. No banging can be heard from the engine which I suppose is a good thing, still have to take it all apart to find out what's what.

Thank you both for all the info. Feel so stupid for not posting like a week ago. Might have already had the part I needed. Let me run down some wires and see what I get for sure.
Also, why in the world would you not have a CID that is AC fed?? Its nice to not stop running in the middle of a highway just because your battery dies :/. Is it possible for me to just change it out?

Thanks for the fast reply,
The scooter is a 2007 Jonway YY250T.
I tested the the other set of cables that come from the R/R looking for some sort of voltage, however it come out to less than a volt regardless of what one I touched. That was in my earlier tests. I had connected the cables that go from the Stator to the R/R and tested the cables that should be an output.
So With the voltage reading I was getting on Idle, I would assume the Stator is functioning then?
Are scooters supposed to continue running even if you detach the battery while its running?

Good evening everyone,
At my wits end here trying to figure this out. this my my first scooter and it ran without any charging issues last season. Started it up and made some repairs that were needed when I bought it only to find that Now the battery doesn't seem to be charging.
I went out and bought a new battery but this did not resolve the issue.
Started checking through this form and found old posts that pointed me to the R/R and Diode however, Someone had told me that it should still run after you remove the battery once started. Hence, I have reason to beleive it may be the Stator. However after reading through the Honda reflex manual, I sitll have no bloody clue how to even get to the Stator coil to see what shape it may be in.
I seem to be getting about 30 ac volts when I test the cables I believe to be associated with the Stator. Other Posts I have read in here indicate that maybe a bit low.
Can anyone point me in the right direction for inspecting and replacing the Stator?
Thank you,
Felix
