For the majority of Chinese 150cc GY6 scooters the brake lights are in the same loop as the starter, which will only start with the brake handle pressed -- which in turn completes the 12v DC circuit for the starter. With the key turned on but the engine not running, the only things that will be getting 12VDC power are the brake lights, horn, turn signals, and some of the instrument lights. Once the engine starts, the rest of the system will be energized.

Mjsfoto1956,
Nice post. This may help many riders with their 150's, especially those wanting to use LED's. They don't like AC current... I had a Chinese 150 years ago and did a bridge-rectifier setup to provide DC current to some LED's. More work than it's worth. Your chart makes it easier!
Please tell us about that scoot in your avatar... It is a knockout! Got bigger pix?
Oh, and WELCOME to the forum!
Ride safe,
Leo in Texas
