Try another flasher unit, sounds like its knacked.

Has the fault just appeared or have you just rebuilt the scoot?

Check front bulbs,
Check front earths,
I am sure back wont flash if fronts don't work.

Then unscrew the indicator switch and make sure all 6 wires are still soldered on.

Then head relay area.

Could be something as simple as a wire off in the switch. That's an easy check too :)

Every problem i`ve had with indicators has been in this order :-

1. broken wire on switch

2. bad earth

3. crap in panel socket

4. Bulb

5. Switch knackered internally

6. Flasher

best of luck !
