Husband has narrowed it down to thinking it is the coil if there is anyway you can tell me how to check the coil I would be greatful as I got juice coming from the CDI and STator to the coil but no spark coming out of end of wire going to spark plug there is no spark
Been through winter and he gave up so he is starting up on figuring out why it turns over but will not start

yes my husband ran the carb shop at van electrical for almost 10 years so he did adjust or whatever to the scoot few months ago and it ran fine all that time...not sure what all he did but he did get it to run few miles faster and then I had a wreck and it did just fine after wreck in fact it drove me home still and it was not a good wreck for me that is...scooter just got some scratches but that is why I didn't ride it for few weeks but I had still went out to start it while puttering around in the yard and all that and even took it to the gas station for fountain few times....so I don't know hubby working a lot of hours but ill tell him to do that valve adjustment deal and get back to you on that.....he will set it to that .003 and we will go from there as your the expert!
THe gas thing I was talking about is where I have to move the handlebar grip back few times before I turn the key when I go to start it after it has sat for few hours...like priming it on a mower....that's what I meant by gas thing! Girl talk lol!

We have spent the weekend trying to find out what is going on with the scooter this time (other than the obvious of it being Chinese) Just kidding! Kind of LOL! However, what has happened was few weeks ago I had started the scooter and noticed it was wanting to die...like it was cold start since not ran for few days but it norm starts right up after priming it with gas upon first start by turning the gas thing few times...then I sit on it and rev it up a little and hold it there until it warms for few seconds and then I get ready to go..this day the thing kept wanting to die like it was idling low or running out of gas which is not the gas since new ignition, had gas, new cable so I know idle was good, and so I took off thinking it was just being funny as it wasn't started for few days...took off and for first five minutes noticed no issues until I had to slow down to go over bumps and that is where it died for no reason...kept turning over but not starting! Walked her home and spent this weekend messing with it and have determined it gets gas, gets spark, spark plug good so we don't know what to do now and since this forum helped me so well in past I am back...please help! AGAIN lol I noticed there was spots for similar issue but not same bike and issue lil different so wanted to start own thread

If you go back to reply 3, it is the first post that I was finally able to send pictures on, it has the date of Sep 7 2014 at 1058 pm....it shows some pictures and the first three on there are of the starter button and kill switch of which both go on the right handlebar of the scooter...I am holding it in the picture and I will go out and do the thing with the pigtails and ill let you know what happens! Now, I did want to ask if you plan on showing us how to use the starter button to turn the bike on? Or, if you wanted to show me to wire it up and use the switch the thief put under the seat...its a red button and I had taken a picture of it as well.....it is posted on the same picture post and is the one where you see the red button(little) on the black plastic piece that goes under seat. I don't really care as long as using the key is mandatory. Thanks...ill get back to you on pigtails test of wires very shortly!

ok reviewed your post allieoops and that was only test mentioned and to get the picture too which I did...ill wait til you say wht else or for Rich to explain how to wire it to start with the key and then I should be able to ride it....remember it will start if hubby touches starter or uses wire thiefs used for their button under the seat! Ill be watching and am anxious to get it wired and hope to find out that my issue is the kill switch and nothing else esp since it starts other ways....Thanks for all your help too!

 Pic of CDI and after running the test we get 0 so thinking its AC! This test was done with the two plug pig tail that plugs into the CDI plugged in key on or off no volts and then we unplugged 2 wire piggy from CDI key on or off and received no volts that way either....therefore AC? We were not sure hwo you wanted the test done so that is why we done it above mentioned way to make sure we did it any way you suggested. Now I will move on to whatever else you mentioned in the post and if more testing then I will do so and reply |

OMG....this is what happens with the kill switch test after checking it several times were sure of this ....kill switch black and white wire is on a probe and the other probe is on green wire for ground with ignition on there is no continuity...BUT when the ignition is off we have no continuity when we do the same thing.....this is off of the ignition switch pig tail unplugged! We are having opposite of the person you was talking to in the example you wanted us to read.....something is up here! I cant believe that this could of caused us the problem this whole time....we are going to wait til you respond until we do anything else to avoid us getting confused....

ok now we have went over the section you asked us to read and did the testing there....here is what we got....When key was on pig tail unplugged probe on red wire and probe on black wire we had continuity with the multi set to 200 ohms....key off with the same wires and result was that there was no continuity between red and black. Key on kill wire b/w and ground wire (green wire) produces no continuity and if the key is off their is still no continuity at all...even if we use ground as the frame and other probe on b/w there is no continuity!

Rich, I don't care about that pita kill switch but I do want it to work with the key....if it even has to not be required to pull in the brake to start idc either...my worry is that I need it to work with the key so it is not easily stolen again as I will not be leaving my keys on any tables every again.....so please explain how to get it to start with the key...does this mean we will use the button the theifs put under my seat? I do not care which is the easiest to explain...Thanks...again |

 This is the picture of the button we cant get to work..  This is the thiefs picture of their switch that starts it under my seat of scooter This is the back side of my switch, and we do know the kill switch works and this is the one where we use the jumper wire to the battery as explained in the post...wont work if we don't jump it  This is a wire that hangs down by the battery...maybe its nothing or does it have to do with y cant get starter switch to work?   Last picture of the mystery switch. |

Do you think that the actual starter button on the right handle bar of this scooter could be stuck in the open or on position whatever you call it as I can take a jumper wire from positive side of battery to the starter solenoid wire to positive side of push start button and the scooter will then crank over and start up. If not we can not get it to start with the starter button as we just put a new ignition in the scooter because it was taken out and they used a push button start button that they wired direct from the starter and the battery to their own push button switch. We want it to run the correct way! It will run as above mentioned but we can not figure out how to do so without the jumper. We followed the testing and they are all good but still cant figure it out. I had taken pics with my phone and put them in my email but how to get them on here is I don't know...we found out that all else test good, the cdi, stator, ignition switch and the kill switch but we cant use the ignition button...the kill switch will kill it when it is running and that is above the yellow start switch we are wanting to use as it is how it works until they rigged it. How can we find the push button starter switch to see if just best to replace it as we are guessing that must be the issue but don't know how to test to know for sure....we did do the testing in the last post you answered with the link to electrical and that is how figured out it will start if we jump the switch like mentioned above.... |

Confirmation is that the yellow starter switch on the handle bars under the kill switch is bad and needs replaced! Finally, and when that part is found and put on we will keep our fingers crossed that we have all the wiring fixed.....Thanks for putting up with me or us and I do hope this may help someone else....the headlight issue was caused by the bulb housing was cracked and had to be tightened and rigged for now to keep the lightbulb good and tight
