Can you give us a picture of your CDI from a couple of different angles so we can see what wires are what?

breaking news: currently the scooter is at my job and I am headed home it wouldn't start up after getting me all the way to work the battery seem to be drained no lights or anything but I think its this time something idiotic that I did on my part so back to Autozone for a charge,..More Newa @ 11.

OK in the grand scope of diagnosis or diagnosing I have tried running it with the security system on in this drain the battery
I try running it with the security system disconnected and just briefly touching the contacts enough to get it to turn off once I have arrived to my destination and this is draining the battery what the heck is draining the battery?? I'm perplexed and I'm wondering if I just get a new security system that would plug up hopefully that will plug up in the same manner will this resolve the issue or will the battery still be draining from something else any ideas?

Security systems are junk, don't but another one. Is there a wiring diagram with your manual? What is this scooter besides the engine number. Is it Tao Tao or what?
We need some pix of the alarm system wiring and the CDI. Verbal descriptions can only go so far. We are trying to help here so you'll have to make the effort to get us some images. If you don't know how to do images there's a tutorial on the non-scooter board.

I was on the bus for 2 years while my back healed. I was on a cane and had the handicapper card. Good service but you never knew what might sit down next to you either.

yea. Guitarman I hear ya' my final straw was i got on the bus... and it was raining INSIDE the bus in Phoenix arizona. I thought that was just damn disrespectful. Its bad enough your bus stops are filfthy and nasty and you obviously never clean the insides of the buses of "some" neighborhoods. But to RAIN inside the Bus???. Disrespectful.
Ok Back to scooter news: So i feel i should give some background about my bike. yes i just purchased it...but it was used. it has ALOT of cosmetic needs and it wasnt very expensive (depending on your idea of a dollar) however i did not know it had and aparently equal amount of mechanical needs. Because it was used... There is no manual... and though there is an alarm. it is inoperable...useless. it has NO key fob and does not work.
Okey dokey and its dusty. it only had like 1500 miles when i purchased it. So here goes guys......dun-dun-dun DUNNNNN... The pics of what i now refer to as "Zombie Scooter"
so i have questions about the pics so well label them 1 and various succession so ill reference the number in regards to the the questions. cool?
hmm looks like they wont post... ill try again when i get home.... check back later please

You can post to a specific album on Facebook on your own photo pages and then link to them here. That's what I do. Once you have it on FB, then right click it and choose COPY IMAGE LOCATION and put that in the photo link box here.

www.dropbox.com/sc/y2tv407vaa6hlgf/AAA4hGYuqayzwCeA7nQJUoIcaok so this is the random cord emerging from where the pos and neg batt cable do. its a 2 pin connector just hanging would this run the horn in the case where you remove the alarm becaus that is the only other loose 2 pin i see. could this be the batt drain cause?

The starter sensor thingamgig is called a Solenoid. If the bike is cranking, it's not the problem. The other 2 pix are major closeups and I can't tell where they go or what they do.

This Just In...so I've been getting This thing tetest AutoZone pretty regularly apparently with the alarm on or with the alarm off this thing is pretty much dying down every two days. we tested the voltage while the battery was on the bike in a while the bike was running no charge was coming to the battery the AutoZone representative suggested it may be whatever feeds into the battery whatever is supposed to keep the battery charged I understand this to be the stator are we in agreement? and if not what other possibilities might there be? I just need to know what parts to purchase and what to start Un screwing so I can take care of this business I want to get on the road again guys by the way happy Friday and thanks for all of your help

There are only two things that would not charge the battery, 1 which is always suspect is the Regulator/Rectifier that takes Vac from the stator and converts it to DC and a wire from there goes to the Positive Terminal on the Battery to charge it as you ride. It should put out 13+ VOLTS while charging. So Find the Regulator/Rectifier it is a BOX with FINS on it and wires plugged into it. So probably what is happening is you charge the battery up and ride it but it is not being charged and in a day or two you drained the battery. Alleyoop Regulator/Rectifier, they come in different flavors for different scoots some have only 4 wires some 5 some 6 etc.. So you have to find yours and see which type you have on there.
