LED tail light blues

Ok, I purchased a atomic LED tail light a little while ago, as per Lambretta parts - it was hardly a straight fit

anyway went to plumb it in to the scoot (SX150 6V Ducati DC electrics) using the ScootsRus website , tried the back brake off the battery- all good, tried the parking light off the switch- all good, however once the engine was running and I tried the lights, the front and rear worked ok but on trying the brake light, the headlight and speedo lights went off and no brake light, eh WTF? tried a few different combinations on the wiring which made the lights not work at all. Checked the earths etc, all seems fine, the bike was fitted with a new loom when I put her back on the road eight years ago, any ideas? Paul

Does it work correctly in the pilot light key position?

You mean the parking light? it does with the engine off and off the battery, don't think it did with it on. Paul

In second key position (side lights), do the these still go out when you brake (running/not running)?

Doesn't work when the engines not running, haven't had a chance to try with the engine on- the scoot is in the front room, need to try and get her out to try later
