People GT 300i / Re: Daytime running light and LEDs not turning on
« on: April 27, 2017, 02:58:39 AM »
Okay, update on this.

Took everything apart. Turns out both the connections to the LED running lights were popped out.  ???

Plugged them back in and they worked like a charm. Headlight still not working on low beam. Goto Autozone and get a sylvania H4.

Pop that in and everything works.

So somehow there was 3 failures. how odd.

That said, getting to the headlight wasn't exactly easy. Took like a dozen screws to get to it. I've always appreciated vehicles that have easy to change headlights. You never know when you'll be stuck in the rain at night and have to change a headlight. Yes I know you can turn the highbeams on. But still seems like poor engineering when you have to do remove a bunch of items to get to the light bulb.

Okay, rant over. safe riding everybody!

People GT 300i / Daytime running light and LEDs not turning on

I wonder if anyone has had this problem. When I turn the key to start, the lights remain dark. Normally you'd think this would be a dead headlight, but those LED lights inside the front stay dark too.

The high beams, instrument panel light, turn signals, red back light and brake light and also license plate light all work normally. Its just completely dark up front.

Before I start taking apart things I wanted to see if anybody else might know what's going on?

Hey thanks for the replies everybody. I'm in Austin, Texas, are you in these parts? We have a pretty good scooter club here and there's another guy with a people 300 in it. Getting these parts from Taiwan is gonna be a hassle. I'm gonna try to get a stack of them, but it might take awhile. If I can get some I'll post on this forum.

People GT 300i / What do y'all think of my air filter

Here's my air filter



err, the pic is huge, here's a link


It's not the best pic, but gives you an idea. This is after about 4000 miles of Central Texas summer driving. I'm thinking that I'll need to stock up on some new air filters. Problem is though, I can't find anybody that has any inventory. The dealer says it'll take over a month to get one, and they're $40. However, having lived in Taiwan before I found the Taiwanese version of eBay has OEM air filters for about $8 usd. You can see the website here:

I'm trying to contact the guy to set up a bulk purchase. I'll let you guys know how it goes. In the meantime, what do y'all think of this air filter. I think it is affecting performance and I'd like to see the effect a new filter would have.

Hey, my next project is gonna be changing the horn to something louder. Does anyone have any experience with this? I'm looking for a horn that will fit in the People 300. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!
