Model: Piaggio Zip
Part: Door lock

To replace the ignition switch on the Piaggio Zip, loosen all the screws securing the internal fairing of the scooter just below the handlebars. This will allow you to remove the under shield to access the ignition lock underneath: it must be removed from its housing by releasing its retaining clip and replacing it with a new spare part. Once the new switch is inserted, reposition the under shield in its housing, securing it with the appropriate screws.
