RedK... that was it... the battery! It didn't have enough of a charge!! We put the battery charger on it and it started right up.  Thank you,  THANK YOU, so much for your patient,  helpful answers!!

I pulled the brake levers and they both light up the brake light. So my search continues!

Oh, I did that. I've been riding this thing for a couple of years now...that's why I didn't now what I'd missed. I just wasn't sure if the switch in the handlebars went loose, or if it could be an electrical problem. Thanks though! :D

Okay, so it's plainly obvious by now that I don't know anything. Now my scooter will switch on. The light comes on, the dashboard comes on, etc. However, it won't start. It wont' even click. Nothing As if the starter switch is not even real. Any idea what came unplugged or needs to be changed?
Thank you for tolerating my ignorance.

Be very careful with that spark plug. The previous owner may have stripped some of the threads and your plug could have blown out.

Oh! I didn't even think about that! THANK YOU!

I have had two of these scooters and I cannot get them over 55 UNLESS I'm going DOWNHILL, ha. But that's good enough for me! They both have speedometers that are about 7 MPH off. It says I'm going 62 and I'm only going 55.

I ended up buying a new battery. All was fine after that. Thank goodness.

UPDATE!
So...it was ridiculously simple. The sparkplug came out. I bought this scooter from someone who kind had it mickymoused and I guess he didn't put the spark plug in tightly enough. Once I screwed it back in, everything was fine! :)

I never did figure this problem out.  Ended up junking the whole scooter due to engine issues.

Pretty sure the motor is seized up.  Bought a different scooter (same thing) and have moved on to new problems... ::)

Hello,  friends. Unfortunately,  I have not yet solved this problem. Things have been crazy busy here.  This is not the same scooter I had before,  but it is the same model and year. I guess I'm going to have to call the shop, as I have no idea what could be wrong.  It's just 60 miles away. Ugh.  I appreciate the replies,  thank you so much.

I was riding merrily along and stopped at a stop light. Everything seemed fine.  As I took off, the scooter  (people s200) made a snap nose,  then the engine stopped,  but there was a strange noise,  kind of like a playing card in bicycle spokes, and I had to coast off of the road.  I tried to start it and it sounds like it would sound if you had the kill switch switched to off. Any clue what's happened?

JaWolf, yeah, I definitely have a problem. The light goes completely OUT and stays out until I restart the bike.

A few weeks ago, I was riding my People s200 and it seemed to be just fine, then suddenly, the motor cut out and the bike coasted to a stop. I pulled it off of the road and tried to start it, but all I got was a 'click', as if the battery was dead. I doubted that THAT was what was wrong, but I took it home and made sure the battery was fully charged. Again, all I get is a click. All of the lights and dash lights come on and the battery is fully charged. Does anyone have any ideas what might have happened?
