I lost both left and right blinkers on my china made 50cc..is there a relay like on cars that i need to find and where to begin looking? thanks

Yes the FLASHER it will be behind the front cowl and it is ROUND very easy to spot. You can get one at an auto parts store just make sure it has the same NUMBER of connectors TWO OR THREE.

I would spray the switch first. Put a paper towel under the switch front and back. Spray the wd40 into the knob area and work the switch back and forth quickly till the wd runs clean. Wipe it down and see if it works.

Then you might want to get some dielectric grease to put on the contacts. My horn doesn't always work, and I suspect the rusty contacts are why, as the only thing I've done is put a bigger horn on it.
