Identify connection points.

Find the small metal clips on both ends of the damper.

3. Remove the Retaining Clip

Remove the clip completely.

Use a screwdriver to pry out and remove the clip completely.

4. Create Clearance

Make space for easier removal.

Gently bend/pry the cover slightly outward near the damper bolt to create space for removal.

5. Remove the Damper

Lower mounting removal.

• Remove 2 bolts at the bottom (cover side)

Upper mounting removal.

• Then remove 2 bolts at the top (bonnet side)

Carefully take out the old damper.

6. Install the New Damper

Install the new unit in reverse order:

Fix upper section.

• Fix top bolts first

Complete installation.

• Then secure bottom bolts
• Ensure everything is tightened properly

7. Repeat on the Other Side

Always replace both dampers together for balanced support and longer lifespan.

   Remove the broken winker switch.

   
   
2. Once the screws are removed, gently pry the old switch out of its housing. Be sure to handle it with care to avoid damaging any surrounding components.
   
   

   

   Remove the wiring attached to the winker switch.

   
   

   

   Pry out the clip that holds the old switch.

   
   

   

   Push the winker switch out.

   
   

Step 3: Installing the New Switch:

1. With the old switch out of the way, it's time to install the new one. Simply reverse the process, inserting the new switch into the housing. Make sure the switch fits snugly.
   
   

   

   Push the new winker switch to its place.

   
   

   

   Make sure the wiring is connected correctly.

   
   

Step 4: Testing the Functionality

Troubleshooting and Repairing No Power Issues | SYM 125 Jet Power

Nothing is more frustrating for motorcycle owners than encountering power supply issues. Whether you're an experienced rider or a beginner, a motorcycle with no power can ruin your day and leave you stranded. In this blog, we will walk you through a real-life scenario of diagnosing and fixing a motorcycle power problem step by step.

SYM 125 Jet Power Scooter

Step 1: Verify Battery and Fuse Condition

1. The first thing to check when facing power issues is the battery and fuse. Ensure that both the battery and the fuse have a voltage reading between 12V and 13Vdc. A low or dead battery could be the root cause of the problem.
   
   

   

   Check battery

   
   

   

   Check fuse

Step 2:  Inspect the Main Switch Terminal

1. If the battery and fuse are in good condition, move on to the main switch terminal. Make sure the main switch has a supply voltage between 12V and 13Vdc, and the ground or body wire registers a voltage of 0Vdc.

Check main switch terminal

Step 2: Check Power Supply Connector for Main Switch

1. If there is low voltage at the main switch terminal, examine the voltage at the power supply connector for the main switch. Look for signs of corrosion or damage on the connector pins.
   
   

   

   Inspect the connector

   
   

   

   Measure voltage of the connector
   

Step 3: Clean Corroded Pins

1. If corrosion is found on any terminal pin, clean it thoroughly using sandpaper. After cleaning, reconnect the pin to the connector. Corrosion can disrupt the flow of electricity and cause voltage drops.
   
   

   

   Clean the corrosion terminal using sandpaper

   
   

   

   Reconnect the connector

Step 3: Verify Main Switch Supply Voltage

1. After cleaning the corroded pin, recheck the supply voltage of the main switch to ensure it ranges between 12V and 13Vdc when the switch is both ON and OFF.
   
   

   

   When the switch is OFF, the voltage normal 12V

   
   

   

   When the switch is ON, the voltage drop to 8V

Step 3: Inspect the Starter Magnetic Switch

1. If the voltage is fine when the switch is OFF but drops when it's ON, the starter magnetic switch may be causing the issue. Open it up and inspect its condition.
   
   

   

   Check starter magnetic switch

Step 3: Identify the Problem

1. In this scenario, all components were working fine except for low voltage at the connector. The suspicion is that there may be corrosion at the connection point between the battery and the connector.
   
   

   

   Starting circuit

   
   

   

   Suspected corrosion at the jointing area

Step 3: Temporary Fix with a Jumper Wire

1. To confirm the issue, a temporary fix was applied by connecting a jumper wire from the battery's positive terminal to the connector. This bypassed any corroded connection.
   
   

   

   Temporary jumper the wire

Step 3: Recheck Main Switch Supply Voltage

1. After applying the temporary fix, recheck the supply voltage of the main switch to see if the voltage drop has been resolved.
   
   

   

   Measure the voltage of the main switch

Step 3: Start the Motorcycle

1. With the voltage issue resolved, attempt to start the motorcycle to see if it's working correctly now.
   
   

   

   Start the motorcycle

Step 3: Install a New Wire

1. Since the temporary fix confirmed the issue, it's time to install a new wire from the battery to the connector using a 2.5mm² wire size. Crimp connectors were used for secure connections.
   
   

   

   Crimp the connectors

   
   

   

   Rewiring a wire

   
   

   

   Secure the connection

   
   

Step 3: Test the Motorcycle Again

1. After installing the new wire, start the motorcycle again to ensure that the power issue has been completely resolved.
   
   
   

   

   Motorcycle working normally again
