You need to make sure that your battery is in working condition. Scooter has no electrical power, to the horn, lights, ignition. Class 1 mopeds—also known as EU mopeds, as they were introduced to comply with European Union rules—are designed for a maximum speed of 45 km/h (28 mph) powered by an engine of 50 cc (3.1 cu in) or, if it has an electric motor, has a maximum power of 4.0 kW (5.44 PS; 5.36 bhp). The dead or undercharged battery is by far the most common electric scooter issue, and has a very simple solution: plug in the scooter to leave it to charge. Gas scooter does have the ability to charge itself but slowly.

I was able to jump start once, but after I shut off the engine and tried to restart again, the electrical system went dead (no power). The battery should have 12 volts or higher with no load on it (ignition and lights off). First, check to make sure that the battery has a full charge. All fuses appear to be good. The symptoms of a low battery will be partial turning on but the failure of the electric motor. In other cases, a faulty spark plug is the cause, the lack of a proper spark will inhibit power on a moped or motor scooter resulting in sapped acceleration.
