2008 Shanghai Shenke 250cc By kit10wmopaw (Read 7,346 times)

I have a 2008 shanghai shenke, 250cc, and recently I prepared to leave for work and absolutely nothing happened. I believe it may be the battery or the starter. The problem is I don't know where most of these parts are even located on the beast. A simple explanation would be amazingly helpful!. I have the charger cable for the battery but I just need to know.... where exactly does this thing go to.

or if someone would be able to post a picture of exactly where to jump the battery correctly. I do however have the proper equipment to jump the beast. I obviously have no knowledge in this area, but I need to start doing the little tweaks and adjustments on my own.

Welcome to the forum. I believe your scoot uses the Honda clone engine. In order to get to the battery and fuses you will have to open up the seat compartment. You will notice a plastic panel with two Phillips head screws towards the front of the compartment. That's where everything is. Click on the link to see what it looks like with the cover removed:

There is a little black box with four 10 amp fuses for accessories. You will see two red wires coming off the positive terminal of the battery. The main fuse (usually 15 amps) is located on the thin red wire. If this fuse is blown, then nothing will work, so check it first.

You will have to expose the battery every time you want to jump start the scoot. Connect the positive (usually the red wire) to the positive of the battery and the negative (usually black wire) to the negative of the battery. I recommend using another battery or a portable jump starter to jump start a scooter. The charging electronics are sensitive and can be destroyed especially when trying to use a car which is running. Make sure the car is not running if you use it for a jump.
