check to see if you have power and ground to the coil of the starter solinoid . If you don't then your solinoid is shorted . if you do you need to trace where it is comming from .

The solenoid could have welded itself closed..fairly common problem

Now I have no spark...replaced stator about 2 months ago, cdi and regulator 3 weeks ago. I wonder if a wire is bad since they start switch got stuck and it ran the battery down before I could disconnect it. It started fine before I changed the carb.

I may have missed this someplace, but what kind of scoot do you have?

150cc ..it was a stuck switch that caused the initial issue, but now i think it is the pickup coil.
I have no evidence of melted wires however, these wires where very hot after the 2 minutes it took me to unhook the battery.

Thanks for the 150cc info, I already had guessed that. I'm trying to verify the brand name like Roketa, Tao Tao, Lance, JCL, etc., along with the model number or any other model name. This makes a difference on the wiring diagrams. Not all 150cc scoots are alike.

its a geely...i have the wiring diagram and i have made a wiring harness for it about 1 yr ago. My issue now is when the switch stuck it over heated a wire..i just need to pull the harness and find out which one. i suspect it is going to be from the regulator since everything has checked out ok so far.
