Electric scooters help many people stay independent and mobile. But like any mechanical device, sometimes they don’t work, which can be annoying and frustrating. There are common problems that can cause an electric scooter not to start. This article explains how to identify and resolve these issues.
II. Initial inspection
A. Make sure the scooter is charged
First make sure your electric scooter has enough power. The most common cause of start-up problems is a dead battery.
B. Check the battery connections
The bike may also not start if the battery wires are loose or rusty. Check the connections and clean them if necessary.
C. Check the spark plug
Check that the ignition key turns easily and that the display lights up, which means the electrical system is working.
