Fuses on a Buddy

I have a 150, and one day I started it, it ran for about 10 seconds then died. I couldn't get it to start so I put the battery tender back on, and left it until I could look at it it. The battery is new, and the tender shows that it is charged, but no lights come on, and it doesn't turn over. Besides the fuse by the battery, are there any others?
Thanks

Sure wish someone would answer your question. I need to now the same thing. Can't get my brand new scooter to start. The battery is dead, charging didn't help.

Even sans battery, the kickstart should still function.
Are there any lights at all? Were there any popping noises when it died?
I would look over the tech section and grab the service manual. It should indicate some of the fuses.
Otherwise I'd take it to a local shop.

I haven't tried the kick starter. No lights, just silence. No popping noise. I had put in silver star light bulbs in the turn signals so they would be brighter.
When I finished, I tried to start it and it was dead. Would a fuse blow by just turning on the switch.
Dead electrical.

My problem was the fuse by the battery. I still don't know if there are any other fuses.

If it turns on too much current, you bet. That's what they're there for.
Same issue

I have a head light and tail light but no blinkers from or back or running lights. Battery fuse looks fine. What am I missing?

Finally got this into the shop to be looked at. At the end of the day my relatively new battery (less than 6 months old) from Batteries Plus was dead, and wouldn't hold a charge.
Couldn't find the receipt, so lesson learned spend a few extra dollars and get something of quality.

That is bad luck with the battery. I'm glad the scooter is running. I hope the shop didn't charge you that much to replace the battery.
When I went to Wal-mart to purchase a battery for my scooter I found a box on the shelf with an old battery in it. I think people just return the old batteries. It sucks for us honest people. You would think BatteriesPlus would be better than Wal-mart at catching these things.

It was the relay switch. It was busted from a crash that's why I wasn't here ing any clicking. That fixed the back ones. Then I just adjusted the front bulbs till those worked.
