Worked for me!! Thanks. Its after u enter the password and scooter is ready. Then hold minus button with power button until u hear beep. If that doesnt work then hold plus button with power button for 10 seconds till u hear a beep. Took me a few tries but then it worked! On 2 diff G4s

I tried pressing Power plus -- for 10 secs -- nothing. Will now try Power + to see if I can enable it like you said... BRB.....

@keenanjeff Жыл бұрын

The best thing you can do to extend range is to give a few kicks every time you start and on big hills where the scooter slows this takes the load off the battery / motor and is really easy way to get the most miles from a charge.

Hold “+” button for 3 seconds to power the headlight and tail light power on and off. I have not found a way to disable the headlight. maybe remove the tiller and reinstall checking the connections.

Great video. Question. My battery indicator light is blinking and my scooter won't power off. im gonna replace the battery but shouldn't I be able to still power off scooter holding power button? or is this some kinda default safety feature to keep from damaging scooter? confused in Brooklyn. /👑

Hold the power button until it turns off maybe 30 seconds. If it still does not power off plug in charger and see if it will charge. Once it stops flashing try to power off again.

As of June 2024, the manual included does tell you the default security code: 000 But the procedure for changing the code doesn’t seem to work. I’ve tried the “-“ & “power” buttons for 10 seconds, I’ve tried the “+” & “power” buttons for 10 seconds. Neither gets me into the change mode. I can disable the code and re-enable the code, but I can’t seem to change the code. Not to complain about your video, because it’s great, but you didn’t actually change the code. You enter change mode, but never change the code. I can do that too, but I can never get it to acknowledge a new code. Can you record a clip showing the code change and then unlocking with the new code ? That would be great, thanks.
