Questions and answers
Why is the getting light blinking
The blinking light on the Jetson Bolt may indicate a throttle or electrical issue. One user reported the light flashing and the throttle not functioning after a spring came out and was reinstalled incorrectly. This suggests that incorrect reassembly or a related mechanical issue could trigger the blinking light and prevent operation.
