    Hi,

    I've bought a firefox 50 off a guy at work with an aim to get it running for my daughters 16th. The battery is fully charged, Ignition turned on (Assuming there are only steering lock/off/on positions) horn, indicators and brake lights work but theres nothing when i hit the start button. Ive seen stuff about the kick stand switch being a pig but does it turn over if this is faulty? is there a way to link it out to try it?

    Does anyone have a wiring diagram for these? Thanks

    Check the spring on the kickstand 1st(weaken badly with age/use)(assuming it's sidestand/not centrestand; ) make sure all's cleaned properly/oiled for smooth operation
    may solve prob.- had similar on a 125 I despatched.....played merry hell with the lowjack.
