What scooter? I've never seen that before.
My magician was all DC 12v.
When swapping out all my lights for led lights I had to remove my turn signal bulb in my odometer because it would cause a short in the turn signals since it would transmit power. LEDs use much lower power and also have lower resistance so it could allow power flow when I didn't want it.
Regular bulbs wouldn't react to the low power flow since they need significantly more power but my LED lights did.
Apply 12v to each of your LED things on your bike to verify they work, then double check your wiring.
Either way you will need to remove that bulb or your lights won't work properly.
An LED blinker relay is needed to make them turn on though. A normal relay won't react to the low current of LEDs properly.
