Hi and welcome to FixYa,

Appreciate the direct "Ask Me".

Initially, have to inform you, have not worked on one. Being in the Philippines most that I have laid my hands on are Japanese with a sprinkling of Italian but don't recall ever working on a French scooter. Sorry.

Still as you posted "Any advice...", allow me to do some guesstimate:

• most scooters would have the battery located low;
• would not be more than 50 cms away from the starter motor/engine;
• being a 125 engine, battery would have to be about 7A/H, a bit heavy, therefore battery holder would not be on any of the plastics, chances are to the frame;
• likely to be under the seat but there would be the helmet compartment, so maybe lower.

• either under the helmet compartment front of the engine (but would have an easy access panel/lid; or
• under the footrest/floorboard.

Simple solution - your tbird has a mechanical trunk lock behind your driver seat on the face of the package shelf. Just use your key to open it.

Hey there, I have experienced the same problem. You need to reengage both motors if you have disengaged them pulling the lever undernearth the rear driverside seat. Make sure to put the black lever back under the seat to the position before pulling on it.

You should have the top in the down position before engaging the motors back in place.

To engage the motors: The motors are located under the carpet in the trunk on the driver side. There are two black clips you will need to remove in order to pull the carpet back. One of the motors is located near the taillight. This motor is responsible for the storage lid cover. The motor that is located further in the drunk is the motor for the fabric top to move up and down. Make sure to firmly press these motors back into place. They should not move.

Once you have engaged the motors, go into your car put the key into the ignition and have the convertible top button pressed up (meaning to close the top), move the key to the accessory positio and hold it for 10-12 seconds. You will finally see the trunk lid get pulled closed. The car will now attempt to completely close the lid. If your motors are working fine it will close. If your only intention is to get the lid to close on it's own it should be accomplished.

Good luck!

I had this exact same problem on a hipster 125, it was a faulty regulator module ( mounted under the seat) I also found a short circuit (somewhere) in the wiring loom between the regulator output and the chassis (probably what killed the regulator in the first place!) I cut and replaced the entire wire to save removing most of the loom and after testing reg to ensure it was dead i fitted a new one (about £60) bike charges and runs like a dream now even with fully lights approx 80% of the time. good luck

SOURCE: Need service manual or electrical wiring diagram.

one ofthe best ways to work it out is the find the motor controller, normally it's a black box located under the seat,

Now remember you have two wires from the batteries B+, B-, two wires to the motor, M+, M- and some smaller wires on maybe a ten connector block that leads to the tiller where the throttle on the handlebars is located.

Hope that helps
