I recently bought 2x Roketa MC-01 150cc scooters, for around 400$ I think, 08 I believe. Was told they would not start, one had a key, the other did not. The one with the key I had running in under a day, however, I cannot get the blinkers to work, or the bright light switch. Lights work, brake lights work, RPM guage works. I can feel / hear the blinker switch contacts connect and when I took it off the bar, I was able to get them to work intermittently, but now I cannot get anything, even with the other switch assembly from the 2nd Scooter. Now I have all the plastics off and I do not see any obvious grounds, and I cannot really say if the blinker mechanism is working or not. Anyone have any experience or advice here? Thanks so much!

Welcome to the forum. Electrical issues are a real pain. You started off well loking for bad grounds, look for dangling wires too. A volt-ohm meter or at least a test light is going to be needed and a lot of time looking. this might help scooterrebels.proboards.com/attachment/download/75 |

I did find a loose ground to the body, tightened that up and the blinkers / brights started working. Electronics stuff doesn't worry me much, I had to rewire an entire radar system in the army lol, that was fun. Now I only have to figure out why the brake lights not working now -_- the left side was coming on when pressed, but not the right, now neither brake activates the light. (Light works, just doesn't get brighter when brakes are depressed). Also the speedo doesn't work >.< and the fuel guage is intermittent, but eh. Lol thanks for the reply!!

Checked the speedo cable by taking it off, it does spin when I turn it, so I know its not the cable, not real sure if the wheel portion is really connecting right though. As far as my brake lights, 2 wires, one (G/Y) is common from the rear light to the brake switches, I'm getting an open there, so I guess Ill have to bird dog it lol, unless the brake switches are not the handle brakes I'm guessing that they are.

Check the brake master cylinder for the switch.
Speedometers on these are not very dependable, installing a bicycle speedo is usually the cheapest and most accurate fix. There is a product called a tinytach that doubles as one also.

Had a loose wire at the brake light itself, got that straightened out and the left hand brake will light up the brake light but the right hand will not. Where is this brake master cylinder? I'm not too terribly familiar with these little scooters lol. I'm learning though, about to try and get the 2nd one running so I can sell it off. Thanks again!

The master is connected to the brake lever.

Didn't get to work on it as much as I'd have liked today, seems the brake light is around the rear plug, as I have to move it to get it to activate here and there, I'll get into that today, got the speedo working, but doubt its accuracy lol! The other scoot will be fun >.> starter doesn't even click and the blinker makes the brake light blink with it lol!
