    Hi guys I recently purchased a zip 125 4t it was fine for months then one morning I was going to the shop and it just cut out and wouldn't start.

    I've replaced the plug and coil and lead with no success i have also checked the fuse near the battery and the two at the front. The two wires going to the coil (black and purple ones) the black one is live the purple isn't I tested with a multimeter.

    I am using the electric start as the kicks spring has come off the battery is also fully charged.

    As you may tell I am not great with bikes and am needing some advice here, thanks

    Hi guys,

    Any ideas? The scooter has been stood for around 2 months now I've got 9 months t&t left and I'd like to get back on the road ASAP.

    The "local" rip off garage asked for £120 just to take a look at the scoot I can't afford that an quite honestly I reckon there trying to take me for a c*nt. if anyone has ideas or can point me in the right direction that would be very much appreciated.

    Updated first post.

    I was incorrect with my first post the two wires going to the coil was not live!

    Only the black is live the purple isn't live at all any ideas?
