On my way to the library, I noticed the left blinker wasn't working, so I thought, how unusual for both of them to switch off at the same time! Neither was the dash LED working. The right blinkers where working fine.
The day before there was quite a few downpours, so I thought probably the water got into the circuit board.
While I was riding, in some mild rain, I noticed that the right blinkers also stopped working, both blinkers, and dash blinker lights gone.
Dash illumination, front and tail lights, and horn where still operational.
I presume it's the water, and think that perhaps when the thing dries up, both blinkers will work again; though I don't know for sure.
Anyone has any suggestions on what it could be?
Definitely not the fuse, because dash illumination,horn and head/tail light work. I have a headlight that's on even when the engine is off, so I'm not talking about the main headlight, but kind of like a tiny front light, to let me know I left the keys in the ignition, and contact on.

I also noticed, for the past 2 days that the scoot is unusually hard to start! Perhaps because it's not 80 degrees, and the water may be affecting it's starting capabilities. Even the first 10 to 15 seconds, when the auto choke is on, the engine would stall. I presume it's water. Takes me a good 20 seconds of starting. The battery still has enough voltage level on it.

Most likely the rain as you say. My Jonway Hornet...after a light rain even...the signals nor horn work until a warm dry day..dries the components in the dash..
