    My f***Ing aerox is playing up again and now the indicators work but left side is normal but the right side is very dim, Almost invisable! Could this be my battery? Im lost again and im awful with electrics!

    first thing is to clean up all the connectors and smear with vaseline to make sure they have good continuity...go from there. Theres not alot of a chance its the bulbs if its just started to do this and its both bulbs on just 1 side

    right i had a look and the wiring is awful.. just twisted together and left uncovered.. I need a new loom definitely but for now i have cleaned it up as much as i can and covered all bare wires.. Now i get the left side indicators work but right side doesnt.. And my left indicators only start flashing once i have pulled the break in? Its really weird.. My brake light now starts and stops i found this out after i came off national speedlimit road and a land rover nearly went up the back of me at 70mph and then it suddenly works again. Im replacing the loom because this is either going to get me pints or injured or killed haha, God i love scooters!

    Could be flasher relay.
    If your brake light is like alot i've seen, the handle could just need adjusting, as the back brake has a pad next to the handle and when the handle is pulled, the pad is pressed causing the brake light to come on. You can usually see the pad without taking handlebar fairings off, have a look and let us know! :)
