Agility 50 / Re: Another Agility not starting thread

i should add that we tested for spark and there was none.  it is getting gas as the plug was wet.  that's why i'm thinking electrical.  if it was a bad cdi would the starter button just not do anything?  When i try to start it now, i hear sound but no firing up.

I was able to start the scooter one time since i posted this and took it for a ride.  since then it has not started at all. charged the battery, replaced the ignition coil and the spark plug over the weekend but still won't start.  is there some kind of fuse or relay switch that might be bad?  also it looks like a real pain in the @ss to get the panels off this thing to do any serious work.  true?  this is a 2007 model that i bought with 6000 miles off craigslist from a guy who kept it garaged.

Hello,

For the longest time now the Agility wouldn't start in the morning but would in afternoon.  Then i got it started and was riding it a lot this week and it was consistently starting in the mornings until today, friday the 13th.  Now here's something i did differently.  The agility sits on my covered front porch which has about an 18inch step up.  I get the scoot down and up onto the porch via a big wooden plank.  This morning i got it down via the plank and then tried to start it and nothing.  On the mornings when i started it and then got it down, it did want to die when it was subjected to the angle of backing it down the plank.  Anyone know what is going on here that makes it want to cut out and ultimately not start? 

thanks.

Linda

I saw those oval shaped lights.  they also have some long rectangular ones that come in red and blue.  i wish i knew more about wiring, i'd put those babies on for more visibility.  on my dash on the left, there's an unused switch place that i think i read where the europeans use it for extra lighting.  did you put your switch for your leds in there?

Got the scooter back last night.  My spark plug wire was compromised and my spark plug was all rusted.  My cdi was replaced bcause when i broke down, the other one was lodged between the back tire and the engine compartment and the rubber had worn off exposing circuitry.  The lights are fixed!  I noticed while in the shop that they sell led lights that you can adhere (yeah right) to the scoot and either wire directly to the battery or press an on off switch.  anyone have any experience with these.  doesn't seem like they'd adhere very well and i'm not sure where the wiring would go.

i've been looking at some youtube vids for help on cleaning or repairing the electrical connections, but i don't know what kind of connectors these are called.  can you help me with the name.  is it best to replace the connectors, and by connectors do we mean the plastic white housing they slide into or the piece the wire is crimped onto?  merci beaucoup!

are these wires crimped or soldered at the connector?  if it's loose wiring do i need a new connector?  if so, do you know what kind?  everything is stock.

thanks.  and if i need a new switch or relay how will i know?  I do have the hi/lo switch.  i don't understand all the wiring stuff and am finding it hard to find info for novices.

Hi Sid,

She's been running okay.  No probs with the piston, etc.  I changed the rollers over to 8.5 grams and this is making her way slower on the hills, which is a sad face.  I didn't think a gram diff would make that much difference.  The belt is relatively new as is the muffler.
