Agility 50 / Rather than start, my Scooter is making electric farts.. help please!
« on: May 04, 2012, 07:13:11 PM »
So I left him out in a slight rain with the keys in the ignition, circuit running. When I try to start him up now theres the first whirring noise (what you'
d hear with a broken spark plug) then it changed to kinda of an electrical farting noise coming from one of the cords near the seat. Yes, everything is plugged in. Recharge the battery? It has enough juice to produce decent high beams... but actually pretty weak. Hmmm.

Agility 50 / Re: Fuse Giving Out 5 times a day

It's the turn signal. I do not know how to test this but the turn signal has caused the fuse to blow many times.

Agility 50 / Fuse Giving Out 5 times a day
« on: March 14, 2012, 02:27:37 PM »
So I've been replacing my fuse alot lately. I did a little experiment. When I accelerate slowly the fuse doesn't give out while I'm riding. I can tell when it goes out because the fuel reader dies and lowers to empty when the fuse gives out. I made it a good two miles going slow then I pulled the throttle back about half way and the fuse gave out again.
This is my problem. Thank you so much for reading!

The spark plug wire? the bike is making the same noises with and without the CDI box plugged in. My naive idea is that because of this i need to replace the CDI box. And the spark isn't happening when i touch it to metal.

The fuse wa blown. I replaced it. It's making the same noise as before. I don't have any CDI box connected at all when I try igniting the fuse.
1. Buy New CDI box? (De-restricted?)
2. The wires that connect to the CDI; When I remove them the white input part disconnected from the wire... So the white head was in the CDI and the wire input disconnected.
Help?

Is it possible to short circuit the bike by putting in a non compatible CDI box? Thanks

Howdy! My name is Samroo! I'm new to the world of auto engineering, but I'm now whimp. I'm guna fix this bike I swear.
Here's the story (skip it if you want to cut to my diagnosis)
I've been in love with scooters ever since watching the show fooly cooly. After moving to Boston I tried for months to find the best deal and scooter for me. After a good three months of waiting I see a silver Kymco Agility 50 listed for 800$. I bargain the scooter down to 700$ and call it a deal. I have a wonderful first day with him/ her (haven't even given it a name yet). She broke down once on the first day. The gas suddenly went from full to empty. I filled it up and suddenly it wouldn't work. Maybe I filled it up to far... Anyways with a little help from friends and kicking the bike around a bit she jumps back to life. I keep riding for another hour or so enjoying the breeze and sunshine, truely in love with life. I come home that night... suddenly at three in the morning I jump out of bed. Somethings wrong. I have too much energy... I tell my girlfriend i want to go ride my bike around be she just pulls me back in bed and waaaaaaaaaaah I'm asleep. The next day I wakeup and the bike is gone. My heart jumps.I walk two houses down the street and see it laying in an alley on its side. Her steering lock had been snapped, her frame kicked up, the ignition wire disconnected and battery shot. I eventually go tthe courage to take it apart on my own. I reconnected the ignition wire, trickle charged the battery and tried to fire her up.
Here's my diagnosis:
After trickle charging the battery and making sure all the wires were reconnected (the ignition wire was the only one I saw disabled) I tried firing her up. She had been sitting idle for about a month and a half keep in mind... She started making some noises.
One of my neighbors came by and gave her a listen. The seat cover had been taken off so I could see the carb and engine, etc. He said it didn't sound like the air was being blocked at all so that it was an electrical issue. Replace the CDI! I purchase a DC 6 plug CDI online for 10$. I replace the old one. (This is month three of idle. Yes there is gas in the tank.) I turn the key... there is a noise for but one second and wallop. The bike dies yet again. No more noises....
Back to square one...
