No Power - X-TREME XB-700Li Owner's Manual

1. First pull up battery pack and pull the main power cord out of socket on battery pack to kill all
power.
2. Unplug the Large Red and Orange 2 wire connector on controller. This connection is for the
Ignition switch test, on the side that has the Red and white wire by looking down inside you will
see 2 silver pins and there is a little tab that you push towards the pin and the wire will come out
of the connector. Take a piece of wire about the same dia. as the orange wire approximately 4"
long and strip the insulation off each end about 3/4" long. Take one end of the jumper wire and
wrap around the pin where the wire is crimped on to. Then the other end of jumper to the white
wire and reinsert it back into the white connector. You may need to pull out the little lock tab so
it will lock into place. Reattach the connector back onto the controller, as shown in my drawing
above. Plug your cord into the charger socket for the voltmeter, just set the seat and seat barrel
in the scooter without bolting it. When ready plug the main battery cord in bottom of battery and
turn your voltmeter on. The scooter will come as soon as you plug it in and may spark a little
this normal. Go for test ride. If you get same results of still kicking out, just unplug main power
cord and plug in to turn it back on.
Troubleshooting: No Power
In this situation we will assume that the battery has been charged or allowed to stand for several
hours (a battery will normally self-charge up to a point and make the scooter power up for a fair
distance). There are generally two main suspects:
1. First suspect is a loose or broken connection. Take the top or deck off to see the wiring and
inspect it for any loose or broken connections on the battery, switch, controller, etc.
2. Second possibility is the controller box has failed. Since the controller is the heart of the system
it can fail in many ways to prevent current from being supplied to the motor.
3. Other less likely suspects can be:
A battery that is completely open, supplying no current and possible even testing as having no
voltage. It can be very briefly shorted with a wire to see if an arc is produced, revealing current is
present. See Below for more advice on batteries.
It is also possible to have a bad brake lever or throttle since both have wiring and switches or
variable controls. The brake lever has a power cut-off switch. The throttle variably controls the
speed of the scooter.
The scooter On/Off switch can be defective. Without a good switch the scooter has no power, but
