Factory wiring book and a meter.&nbsp\\; It will be really hard for anyone to troubleshoot your scooter without looking at it. I can give you some tips.
1) Try running one item on the circuit at a time and going for a ride. If you flip something on and it blows…
2) Next, don’t forget to check the out sides of relays as well. You may have no short until the relay is energized.
3) Last, unplug suspected bad parts (if possible) to see if the problem comes back.

Any chance that starter relay (pos. 30) could be causing this issue?&nbsp\\; Would it short that fuse?
