Choke /Auto bystarter replacement

[C2]

All,

I just changed out the choke/auto bystarter on my scooter and documented the process for y'all. Shall we begin?


1: Remove the "pet carrier" by taking out the four bolts that hold it in. (no photo for this... should be pretty self explanatory)


2: Locate the Auto bystarter - the object of our desire.



3: Remove the cap to the auto bystarter.



4: Locate the power connector for the auto bystarter. It's on the other side of the scooter towards the top.



5: Disconnect the power lead. I tied a bit or string to the lead so that I could use it to help thread the new cable back thru the other wires.



6: Remove the auto bystarter. It's held on with one hex screw, highlighted in red.



6a: The auto bystarter removed.



7: Take the brass retention flange off the old auto bystarter, and put it on the new one. Place the new auto bystarter in position and screw it in place.



8: Thread the power cable and connecter back thru all of the wiring - remember that string I used? Reconnect the power plug.



Put the cap back on the new auto bystarter, replace the "pet carrier" and you're done.

This is a great walk-through. I think I am having the auto-bystarter/choke problem and this may offer a solution. I am having trouble finding the part on scooter works, where did you get your replacement part?

I ended up getting it from ScooterLoungeOnline. Their site isn't that easy to navigate, so here is the link:

It's a very easy item to replace. However it didn't help with my situation... turned out to be the stator.
