Clive

It could well be, i am going to check and clean the ones I can find.

I have a basic meter, but my problem is knowing what to test, battery and charging rate I am ok with, so not sure where and what else to test, I have a ( very small) wiring diagram in the handbook, but it means nothing to me.

I am going to start at the battery, check the connection, check the earth connections to the frame and engine, also put a new fuse in. I have put the battery on charge so it will be fully charged, just to eliminate the possibility that a low battery is causing the problem, and take the tupperware off so I can gain access to the ignition switch, which it is keyless, and check the wiring and connectors around that area.

Wonder if it's worth looking at the starter motor.

Passed its MOT at 9.30am........Fooked by 9.45am......at least it behaved during the MOT.

Headlight, 2 LED running lights, LED Rear light.....its like Blackpool illuminations when they are all on. Just been into the shed and the bastids came on ☺,,,turned it off, then back on................Nothing.

So in answer to Petes question "Will you use it Clive" The answer has got to be no, because besides it not having any running lights, it also has no brake lights.

Be better off asking Mrs. Pete for advice.

No joy with the lights, they will not come on at all now Checked the fuses...all ok. Checked the relays...only has one relay for headlight dip/main beam. Checked all the block connectors that I can see...all clean and free from corrosion. I am stumped as to what it is.

Not looking too good for the weekend here.......nothing planned anyway.

Make it £1000 and I may consider it.

A guy on the scoot forum has been trying to sell his scoot, same model and year as mine, he tried for 3 months and gave up, it is stood in his garage now, he says he will try again next spring. Getting spares is a bit problematic.

Maybe occasionally, see at the end of the month when tax is due..........SORN or sell, not sure yet.

£1.50 for a polystyrene cup of sludge...... What a fooking liberty.

It passed OK. Had a slight problem, the lights would not come on when scoot was started, but they did after 10 seconds, have to look into that one.

Scoot fired up inflated the tyres, sat at the MOT test centre now, Their coffee machine makes a terrible drink.

I lied

They seem to cater for the average, hands are not that big (I think) but I have long fingers.

Not a clue really, my last (rotted) pair were a 3xl, tried a pair on few weeks ago that were the same labelled size, fingers too short, I just keep trying to find pair that are comfy.

I have been around the local shops for some summer gloves, it appears I have hands like shovels.

No air con.

27c here at the moment, its not gonna last though. ☺ back to average temps on Saturday.

Your reputation preceded you.

Oh yes, went on the train, granddaughter forced us too.

A few hours in Chesterfield with the family.......photo of the crooked spire was too blurred to put on here, this is Queens Park.
