Agility 125 / Re: Electrical issues
« on: June 12, 2011, 04:14:56 PM »
Quick question. Do all the other 12 volt devices work on the scooter (turn signals, gas gauge, horn, brake light)? Or all they all dead like the passing lights? On my agility the engine powers the headlight and instrument panel lighting and the battery provides power to gas gauge, horn, brake lights, turn signals, passing lights and relay.

Double check the connections on your battery and make sure they are tight and clean. There are only 2 fuses on the bike which are down in the floorboard. They take 7 amp fuses. The fuse connected to the black wiring powers all the 12 volt stuff listed above. The fuse in the red wiring controls your battery charging.

Finally when I was working on the electrical system of my bike I had issues with pinched wires from when I was putting the plastic cowling on. I buttoned everything up and then my winker relay didn't blink. I just had solid lights. I assume it was just from pinching the wiring when I jammed it all in. Try taking the plastic cowling off the handlebars and see if everything works fine. Just putting the wiring in weird may be giving you problems.

Let us know what you find out.

The engine is a KDU. It's the upgraded GY6. The guy at Kymco support told me that.

There's only the two fuses by the battery. Even without the bike running you should have your starter, turn signals, fuel gauge, horn, and brake light.

If you have voltage coming from the battery, check and see if you have power going to the ignition switch. You'll have to take the headlight and lower body panels off. Disconnect the plastic white plugs that connect the key switch to the harness and check the red wire coming from the battery for 12 volts. You can ground the meter on the frame or on a green wire.

If there's voltage coming in on the red wire you can see if your ignition switch is broken by bypassing the ignition switch with a jumper wire and connecting the red wire directly to the black wire in the harness. That should turn on all your 12 volt accessories.

If everything works on your handlebars then your ignition switch is bad. If there's still nothing you have a short or pinched wire somewhere.

Keep us posted

For starters check your battery and fuses. Get a volt meter and check your battery. It should be around 12 volts DC.

Check your fuses and make sure they aren't burned out from you jumping the solenoid. My Agility 125 uses 7 amp fuses.

A repair manual that I have for the Agility says you should unscrew the pilot screw 3 plus or minus a half turn. I think when I adjusted mine I unscrewed mine 3 1/4.

If you already cleaned out the carb you can try checking your fuel and air filter. You can use some compressed air to blast them both out.

As far as the lights dimming, they will dim when the engine lulls at a stop. It's because the stator's spinning slower. So long as the scooter doesn't die then you should be good. If your worried check your idle settings. Put it on the center stand and adjust the cable up to the point that the back tire doesnt spin. That's worked for me.

Finally, do you have 7 amp fuses installed?

Good luck.

Ok I got the scooter working. It was a bad pulsar coil. I bought a new one and installed it and the scooter fired right up. On the new stator & pulsar coil I measured the resistance and voltage.

Key off:

Blue/ Yellow wire- resistance 111 ohms
Yellow wire- .6 ohms
White wire- .7ohms

Key on, scooter not turning over:

Blue/ Yellow-112 ohms
Yellow- 7 ohms
White wire- 6.8 ohms

Just turning over the engine:
Blue/ Yellow wire- resistance .9 killi ohms, .23 volts
Yellow wire- no continuity, 7 volts
White wire- resistance 0 ohms, 9.1 volts

Engine running:
Blue/ Yellow wire- resistance ohms, .76 volts
Yellow wire- resistance ohms, 11.6 volts
White wire- resistance ohms, 17.5 volts

Hope this helps someone save a lot of time when their trying to know if their stator/ pulsar coil is bad!

I just tried moving the pulsar coil closer to the flywheel. I also roughed up the magnet and pulsar coil in case there was any corrosion/ dirt etc. Still no spark at all.

Ok I'll try moving the pulsar coil a little closer to the magnet on the flywheel. What about the low voltage though? I thought I should be getting 120 volts AC, not 7.

Axy,

I'm not getting any spark at all.

I tried changing the spark plug, changed ignition coil, changed the CDI, grounding the spark plug, checked the killswitch, looked for shorts in the ignition wiring. Thats why I'm asking for any information on stator voltage.

 My Agility 125 is having ignition problems and i'm running out of things to check. I'm focusing now on the stator and pulsar coil.

Can anyone compare these values to a working scooter? I checked the three wires coming out of the generator area.

Blue & Yellow wire: .4 ohms resistance, produces .4v AC when turning over.
White wire: .5 ohms resistance,  produces 9V AC when turning over
Yellow wire: .38 ohms resistance, produces 7 V AC when turning over.

Thanks

First off can you tell us if your scooter is producing a continuous spark?

You need the CDI box connected in order for the scooter to run.

When my CDI failed, my scooter wouldn't produce a spark, or it would produce a spark when I flipped the killswitch up and down. It would spark once and then die. I talked to a few people and they said the CDI. Once I did that the scooter started up first try and has ran like a champ.

« on: April 21, 2011, 06:22:40 AM »
Did you get any numerical values when you tested the stator with the engine running? Or did you just start the scooter and test for a complete circuit?

When i had problems i checked the fuses, disconnected and then reconnected the battery and that fixed things. I also was curious and checked the turn signal relay ( it makes the clicking sound and is mounted in the instrument panel). Last thing to check is the switch. Good luck.

Agility 125 / Re: when do headlights come on
« on: March 27, 2011, 04:57:22 AM »
My headlight only turns on when the scooter is turning over or running. If I turn the key to on, and I don't start the scoot, only the instrument panel, horn, and turn signals work. If any fuse is blown nothing works. When I'm turning over the scooter the headlight will kind of light up, and when the scooter is running the headlights always on. Hope this helps.

I called up Kymco and talked to their head tech guy. I told him all the problems i had and he told me immediately it was the CDI. Because I could still get a spark but not a consistent one it was not the ignition coil. I replaced the CDI and it started immediately. I've been riding it for about 3 weeks now with no problem what- so - ever.
