I can't really help with the problem (I haven't seen a new Vespa up close) but... was that last photo upside down before you uploaded it?

I watched Robot's video and after about 2 minutes I said to myself "that is something I will gladly pay someone else to do". Good luck on your journey and hopefully some MVer with more wisdom than I offer you some helpful pointers.

It should be connected to your USB port in your glove box.

Thank You For Your Help - Jes, Harbinger and Der Blechfabrer..
- I hope someone will enlighten me on how to resolve this anomaly.
Thank You again, I was hoping Later not Sooner. That I would go down that "Rabbit Hole", on taking off the Glovebox.

Thanx Again.

looking at your pic of your panel (right way up) looks like a 2022. the cable you want will be down out of sight and you'll have to reach down and find it with your fingers. maybe peak with a mirror first or stick your phone in and take a pic (with flash?). or just rip of the glovebox and you'll see it.

Think I will hold off on that, as the last resort.

Thanks All.

Removing the glovebox is quite straightforward. You don't even need to struggle around the steering head. Watch this video:

Yes, it is in German, but it shows how it is done very clearly. Its pretty easy. I removed it on my 2020 to install a Stebel horn and ended up not being able to do it because on my Super Tech the space is taken up by components not on on other models.

I went looking for where the connector, for the USB resides behind the Glovebox:
Looks like it resides on the main power connector cable:
First look at the Connection for electrical power, from the power cable
