Looks like they have a cap on them that you have to open to get to the fuse.

Take a few pictures and post em here. Curious to see how it looks inside there.

Actually now I can't unscrew the front cover the get to the battery case where the fuses are, the screw is too tight and won't budge - (imagine being in a blown fuse breakdown, needing to change a fuse but unable to open it up!)

I'll take it to the dealer's workshop and ask for help, they'll have more powerful tools. Don't like asking them for help like this - when I rang to ask what type of spare fuses, they just said they weren't certain, but 'probably' glass cylinder type although 'not sure' what length and 'probably' a spare already in there, but that I should open it up and look. As I can't even achieve that now, I'll have to return to them for assistance.

Jeeves you've been far more helpful than the dealer's workshop, so thanks again. It's just unsettling in the interim, in case a fuse blew and I was stranded and unable to deal with it, but with any luck that won't occur and hopefully this back-up plan will eventually be sorted.

Cheers.

Ups...you know the saying :"Assumption is the mother of all fu..ups" 
From the picture you posted it looked like the battery is in the rear, but I see that I was wrong. Sorry   

On the same picture you can clearly see a standard blade type fuse, so it's probably the type of fuse in your scoot.
I circled the place where I presume the fuse holders are, but after being wrong a few times I will restrain from giving anymore "good" advice.

I would open up the front, as shown in your manual, and take a look.

Good luck.

Jeeves over and out.

Thanks Jeeves for your illustration, I had no idea these were the fuse holders. I'll have closer look at these when the rains stop here (I just have kerbside parking).

You've been extremely helpful.

How might these type of fuse holders open? Push? Pull?

If you don't know, that's fine.

Ok, looking at the picture from your manual I was waaaay off with my suggestion.

Your battery and fuses are located above the rear brake lights, which makes sense because the fuel tank is under your feet.
Also looking at the picture your scooter has standard size blade fuses like on the picture below. Different colors are different amp values.

Very nice scooter! [emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]

Many thanks for your help & photos Jeeves. How are you able to see that the fuses are blade types?

However, I'm not sure how you're concluding that the battery on my scooter is where you say.

On the attached images here (again from my owners manual), you'll see the battery is not above the rear brake lights, but at the front of the scooter behind a panel.

Were you maybe looking at an online manual for an older version of this scooter? Mine is the 2018 model, and these images I've posted on our thread are all from this 2018 model's printed owners manual.

As we're talking at cross purposes re the battery's position, might this also mean that my fuses might not be the wedge/blade type you've concluded they are? Or is something you haven't mentioned making you certain they're this type of fuse, rather than glass cylinder ones?

Hate to be a pest, but any further clarity from you would be hugely appreciated.

Cheers.

(Also see my next reply for another pic of battery position, photographed from a different angle)

Well, if you have the correct fuses
 in hand, and the unusual (blowing a fuse on a new scooter) does happen - you'll need to know where they are so you can get back underway again.
So, suggest you now go ahead and open the battery cover, see what spares your scooter came with....and which others are in use there. Buy some if needed....
And then you can rest easy.

Thanks Stig, but I'd have no idea which were spare or otherwise just by opening the battery compartment.

I want the spares to hand to the roadside assist people if needed. When my last two scooters (Agility 125 & Agility 200i, both fairly new) blew fuses and I called these services, their staff didn't even know where my scooter's battery compartment was. I've had to direct them to it using the printed Owners Manual, then hand them the spare fuses. Even they (mainly used to cars) did much fiddling on both occasions to see which spare fuse went where, using trial and error until each of my previous scooters started. And these are mechanics. I'm just someone who wants the right spare fuses to hand to them when needed.

But on this model scooter I can't distinguish the fuse positionings. The printed Owners Manual lists only the amps of the three fuses (10A 15A and 25A), alongside a blurred black photo of the battery compartment with no indication as to which amp fuse sits where.

Has anyone bought spare fuses for the 2018 model People S150? I've only had this scooter a few weeks.

My auto-store won't sell me fuses unless I specify 'flat' (i.e. 'knife-blade') or 'glass cylindrical' (cartridge) types.

I have no clue about this stuff.

The People S150 printed owner's manual only gives (on page 45) the fuse specifications as 10A 15A and 25A - nothing about 'flat' or 'cylindrical', nor does the accompanying photograph show this, it's just an indistinct black mass photographed, of the battery area where presumably the fuses insert somewhere. 

Yet the fuse section in my auto-store has many different looking types (not just 'glass cylindrical') including all varieties of flat plastic 'wedge-blade' fuses ('mini' and assorted sizes) and others I've not seen before.

I want spare fuses in case I need to call roadside assistance, as my last 2 Kymcos have both had blown fuses and I've had to learn on the spot, while broken down, how and where to replace them, as roadside assist services around here are often nearly as clueless as me about two wheeled vehicles, they really only know cars, so without my having spare fuses on hand to guide them in such a scenario, the most they could probably do is tow my fused scooter to my dealer's mechanic workshop.

This has me quite bamboozled, can anyone enlighten me?

Cheers.
