About CDIs

Let's take a short walk through the topic of CDI. Why should you replace a CDI?
There may be a number of reasons for this:

- Your scooter suddenly stops in the middle of a ride and then does not start again. (electric starter does nothing.)
- Your scooter won't start anymore.
- You want to return or lift your scooter.

First of all, the difference between the CDIs of two-stroke scooters and those of four-stroke scooters:

With a two-stroke, a CDI has no influence on the scooter's top speed.
A CDI does have an influence on the top speed of the scooter with a four-stroke.

With a four-stroke, a CDI does affect the top speed, but this is not the only factor.
The top speed also has to do with things like your variator ring or gasoline air adjustment.
So, for example, when your scooter is running 60 km/h, it doesn't mean that you can run it up to 45 km/h again with just replacing the CDI. So always keep that in mind!

Assembly and return

It is also necessary to connect all the CDI cables, these are of course not attached for nothing. Otherwise, the CDI will most likely not receive proper nutrition and thus will not work.
In addition, all CDIs are new and are factory tested for functioning and are only shipped if they are fully functional. So it never happens that a defective CDI is sent to you.

It is also the case that with some scooters the ignition coil and CDI are combined in 1 part, so when these scooters stop using it, it can be up to 2 parts. On the ignition coil or on the CDI, but because these are combined, both of them will no longer be able to do their job.

Attention!! CDIs cannot be returned because it is an electronic product. It is also the case when there is a short circuit in the scooter, that can immediately result in the “inflating” of the new CDI unit.
So always make sure which CDI you need! You can always call the assembly helpline for advice, so you can always be sure to order the right CDI.
