Technical | How To / Re: kymco agility 125 : headlights issue

Important question.

My Agility do not have an LCM, but apparently some models came with LCM's.

According to some comments at this forum the LCMs never worked properly, and the LCMs eventually had to be removed or bypassed - and some or other modification had to be fabricated to get the lights work properly.

To my understanding the LCMs were bolted next to the voltage regulators which are located behind the front light panel. My Agility does not have an LCM.

I decided to do my own modification to get the lights work properly. Life is too short to try and find out how Kymco managed to get the problem solved.

Does the LCM look like the dci, like a potted rectangular unit? If so, i think I remember seeing one in there the other day when I changed the bulbs.

How do I test that? And what would the workaround be?

Also, and this may sound extremely noob-ish, but does the stator charge the battery? I've read that it also feeds the lights but didn't get much farther than that.

Appreciate the help - anything I've read sounds like it's from guys who know these things really well to guys who know these things really well lol!

Hey all,

My headlight low beams and taillights/brake lights aren't working, but my blinkers, dash lights, and high beam all are working.

I bought the bike used a few months ago so thought maybe the battery was going, so I replaced that. Still no lights, so I replaced the bulbs. Still no good.

Today on the way home from work (about a 15 mins into ride), when stopped at stop signs or lights the engine chugged a little like it was about the die, and even the high beam dimmed considerably.

Any ideas? I just don't know enough to troubleshoot, and the manual didn't help much.

Thanks!!

Hey thanks for the replies!

I had the carb out and cleaned the whole thing thoroughly, including the jets. It's likely now cleaner than it's ever been except for new hehehe.

Hi everyone! New to the forum, searched it out after I developed a problem with my scoot. I'm hoping someone here can help point me in the right direction of my next move.

I have a 2005 Like 50cc. Two nights ago the bike started to chug, IE gain power then lose power,  then slowed as it lost power kind of like it was choking out. I made it home but only just.

Now the bike will start and idle, but if I rev it up, just as the clutch engages, it'll take off but then will either almost immediately start chugging and die or just die.

This weekend I changed the gas out (in case there was water) and filled it back up with supreme (I usually run supreme anyway).
I regapped the spark plug, as it still looked new with no cracking, burning, etc.
I changed the fuel filter to a new one.
I removed the carb and cleaned it and the injectors
I cleaned the air filter.

it still does the exact same thing.

Has anyone else had this issue? The bike ran just fine and solid before this, with no other issues or warning this was coming.

Thanks all!!
