Welcome Kymco Owners!
Most likely the gear or sensor on the front wheel has sh** the bed. Happened to me too and am waiting for the parts to come in.
I'm lucky enough to have a dealer close by...literally 3 blocks from my work, super convenient, so I order Kymco parts through them. I'd be very interested if you do get that generic one how well it works. The Kymco parts are way more pricey!
I used superglue to put the broken piece together and it's working now. Fingers crossed!
