Peugeot Speedfigth 2 doesn´t start on electric starter

Hi!

I have a fair amount of experience with two-stroke engines Evil or Very Mad

, but not so much with the Speedfight. It´s a 50cc air cooled one from 2001 or 2002. It starts with the first strike of the kickstarter, and runs perfect. BUT, when trying the electric starter, it doesn´t fire Rolling Eyes

. This happened quite suddenly. Before, it started with just a touch of the starter-button. Now, there are plenty of power from the battery, and the starter engages and turns the engine at the correct pace. There are plenty of air coming out the muffler. So something in the electric circuit must be causing the engine to not fire. Any ideas from somebody who have had the same problem?

You are pulling the brake(s) on when starting?

OK, its an easy enough mistake to make, I should know!
So, do you get a spark? If not, then, either the battery isn't good enough to do both jobs or there is another lockout switch somewhere.
