The Shining Blue TVS Jupiter 125: My Latest Two-Wheeler

If the service centre can't help you, then better write to TVS directly explaining the problem or if you have another TVS dealer close to your place suggest checking with them if they can do something to rectify the problem.

Your service centre giving the reason of having 12 inch tyre is the case for the vibration which is wrong as from the beginning all TVS scooters come with 12 inch tyres in both front and rear wheels.
(In the past, I have used TVS Wego for 3/4 years which also comes with 12 inch tyre and never had the problem of handle vibration).

There is a problem with my Scooter.

The scooter was idle for a week and after that on Monday (18th Nov), morning I tried to start the scooter but it's dead. When I inserted key and tried to ignite but found no display on the dial and the start button also dead.

Tried to kick-start - no good. I called FNG guy, who came and towed the scooter to his garage. I recommended changing the battery since the scooter is almost 3 year old. I myself purchased a new Exide battery and the garage replaced it.

Once the new battery was installed, the scooter started and rode the scooter for about half a kilometer and the vehicle stopped and display gone dead again. I called the garage guy, who came and towed the scooter again to the garage.

They said that need to check all the wiring and fuses, for which they need some time, so I left the scooter for overnight. Next day when I checked they said the Sensor board might have to be changed which may not be available locally hence recommended to take the scooter to TVS service center itself.

Accordingly, I spoke to the TVS service executive who asked me either to drop the scooter to their place or if they want to arrange pick up then it may take a day. So, I asked the garage boys to drop the scooter to the TVS, for which I agreed to pay something towards their charges.

The Scooter was given to TVS ASS yesterday noontime, but they said they are fully occupied with service vehicles and wanted a day to check my vehicle. I called them just now, but they still not able to find the fault yet.

What could be the problem - any guess?

Update from TVS ASS

Just got a call from them advising that they cannot find out what is the real problem. Now they suspect that some wiring problem which prevents current passing to display panel. However, to test this, they don't have a wiring kit in stock and need to get it from head office. Need to wait 2 or 3 days further to see the final result.

Final update

After waiting 8 days, today the local Service center received the wiring harness kit and the scooter was ready to pick up at 3pm today.

As of now, it is working fine.

The wiring harness kit was covered under warranty terms, and I had to pay only the labour charge Rs.708 (Rs.600 + 108 taxes). They also did a water service after changing the wiring kit.
