Default popo500 misfireing?

Well went and did a little muddin' friday afternoon came homw and unloaded. Today I hosed her off, had it idling while cleaning off, since then she seems to be spitn' and sputern'. checked plug and airbox and those were both fine. Also noticed that somehow the shift light indicator module is broken, it swivels instead of staying in one position like it's suppose to. It's back by the shifting linkage on the tranny, that black circular shaped thing. Anyone know how much those are and how to get them off?

Is indicator showing correct gear? If trans indicator broken and moving,could be showing false reverse or shorting out? e-clip holds module on along with small tab on back. The tab is usually what breaks.

Any idea what they cost and how to get them off? Tried to pry w/ a screwdriver carefully so not to break it or anything else and didn't work. Do you need a puller? They kinda look like there pressed on.

Pulls off,may be corroded, may have to pry off with screw driver. Unless you are able to rig some sort of tab on the back to hold staedy,then replace. Last time I checked around 60 bucks?
