Alleyoop you Rock Alleyoop!!!!!! I picked up a solenoid, coil and CDI today, I put the solenoid in first and you were correct! When I squeezed The brake and hit the button and she turned over. I changed the coil next, still no spark and the scooter dealer believe it or not, this is the owner, Didn't know that some CDI's are DC. so he sold me this super mega hyper make a 50cc do the 10 second mile CDI that is AC I believe. So she won't fire up today. I am going to take a ride to another shop in the morning and get the right one! Thank you for walking me through all those tests yesterday, It paid off because I knew that the solenoid was no good. I wanted to hear that motor rev up but tomorrow is another day, I will hopefully have taken it for it's first ride tomorrow Thank you TomTom

It doesn't spin the starter, Looks like I am going to have to pick up a solenoid tomorrow, Is there anything else that you would recommend while I am there? Don't say jack up the gas cap and pull a new scooter under it! She's going to come around, with your help, and be a good scooter for me. Thank you for all your help, I don't think the solenoid has anything to do with no spark so I am probably not finished pestering you yet, Is there a way to check the CDI or coil so I can pick those up if they are bad. I am usually patient about things like this, but I want to hear her fire up and see what it can do!!! Anyways I have enjoyed the day Thank you!! Tom Tom

Alleyoop I just got back from Harbor Freight where I picked up one of the test lights that you suggested. The green and yellow wire gets power with the key on and the brake pulled and the two wires do lead to another connector!!!

Both front and back brakes activate the light but nothing from the start button, It turns over when I touch the two terminals with a screwdriver. The red and yellow wire and the green and yellow wire come straight out of the solenoid, no connector Not that I think this is relevant, I just want you to get an idea of what kind of parts are on this scoot, I don't think these are as popular as some of the other scooters. I really liked the Rocketa and I really like this GMW,I will like it more when I get to ride it. Its so clean and has so few miles on it that I just feel that whatever the problem is, it cant be very involved. Lets hope I'm right! Thank You again for your time, It is very much appreciated

I will start by Thanking You for taking the time to help me out. Yes, when the key is on the fuel gauge, turn signals, driving light, no headlights(from what I remember about a Rocketa 150 I used to have the engine has to be running) And I am getting 12 volts on the black wire when the key is on, The kill switch does nothing, I feel like I have made a major break-thru just finding out that its DC and I am getting voltage!!! I will be doing the jig when It starts. I am going to check the connections and put the CDI back in and see what happens, Any thought on the start button? Anything that I can check to see why it wont turn over without bypassing it?

I have been all over this forum gathering information needed to get my scooter back in shape, I recently bought a 150cc Gorilla Motor Works with only 200 miles on it not running! After basic trouble shooting I found that it is not getting spark and the start button will not get it to turn over, jumping the solenoid will. I went through the video "The Ultimate GY6 Starter & Ignition Troubleshooting Tutorial " This was very well done, When I first pulled the seat access off, I found the CDI out of its mount just flopping around, also right from the beginning my CDI has less wires going to it than the one used for the tutorial, when I check continuity from the black wire(lower right) to ground, the kill switch does nothing, the key shorts it to ground in the off position, can anyone shoot me a chart or something that I can use to check out the ignition system and try to narrow down why the start button wont work and try to get me some fire down here in Florida? I humbly ask this, hat in hand! Thomas

I picked up a 2012 Gorilla Motor Works 150cc scooter with low miles (270). It is super clean but it wont run. The starter button doesn't work, it is getting fuel but no spark. Is there something that I can check with the starter safety system that would tie into both of these things. I am not even sure what I would do to get the start button to work, I thought pull the rear brake?
