Beam problem with my CDI

[le ted]

Hello, i have a problem with my Kymco Super 8 2T and i live in France. Few days before i want to de-restricted my Kymco; at first i changed the vario ( that's ok) and later i changed my CDI (GY6). But i have a problem, when i put my de-restricted CDI i have not any beam!!! (at rear all is ok) with the OE CDI all is ok ....
i don't know the failure!! Do you understand me?.Please can you help me? sorry for my bad english.

Thanks wordslinger ,
Normaly i buy 2T cdi but when i put it, i have not any light in the front of the bike. stop light ant rear light is ok. I think there is a security in the cdi

Maybe taken out the regulator?

Hi, i don't know wy but i think the lightening is switch on by the CDI. perhaps a security of Kymco for the French bike?

[sidthesloth]

Yes, I think you are right, I think scootergrisen found the fix for this. If you do a search, you should be able to find it. good luck.

I saw scootergrisens thread on this and it seems that you need an a/c signal from your cdi to your light control box to make the headlight work. does your engine run ok with the new cdi?

[le ted]

Thanks for your answer. Yes the engine is ok but not any front lightening ...... rear ok. For me, there is a secuity system for not change CDI quickly.
I try to look for scootergrisens......

His thread is in this section. You might need to find the trigger wire and connect that. I tried to look at the wiring diagram for the s9, but it is not readable. Check that your headlight globe is not blown.

hi, no my headlight globe is not blown , because when i put the OE Kymco CDi N° 30410-LHB3-E10 all is ok but my engine is normaly.

G'day Le Ted, I have just found a manual for the super8 and it shows as being a 4 stroke, you wouldn't have the manual for the 2 stroke would you?
The wires in your picture, going from left to right, top row then bottom row, are the colours
Blue/Yellow, green/black, green.
Bottom row
black/blue, black/purple, black/white?

[sidthesloth]

Also Le Ted, can you find your light control box and if so, what colour wires are going to it?
