The MaxFoot MF-30 bike may not move even though the battery is charged due to the following possible reasons:
1. Loose wiring – Check and reconnect wiring while the bike is powered on. 2. Loose or damaged motor cable – Inspect and reconnect the motor cable. 3. Battery poor contact – Ensure the battery is in full contact with its mount. 4. Blown discharge fuse – Replace the discharge fuse if it is blown. 5. Battery in OFF (locked) position – If the key is in the OFF position, the bike will remain off and not function.
Check these conditions to identify and fix the issue.
