Hi Ralf, you are a natural! Thank you for this valuable info. My mantis had this happend after 10 days of use. I catually opened it but the cables was a mess and cramped i did not dare to pull them out. But now i will do as u did, push then into the sides! Thank man!!!!!!!
Thanks for that. I can now see why water ingress through the front might damage things as others have reported, that original was not very water proof as one example. Grab a friend to film so you can teach the rest of us :)
Therefore i would need friends :D Joke aside, i got my wife to help with newer videos but we have a little daughter daughter and that makes everything a bit harder.
Great detail and video. Question, as my throttle no longer powers the motor. Scooter is practically new, after I unplugged my battery. I made sure all wires were tight where the battery was. But, could any wires going from the brake light to the controller cause me to lose all power from the throttle?

Great vídeo Ralph, i think i have the same problem. I will try to repair with your review
Hey love your video very informative I'm a subscriber I have one quick question question the black resistor not the green where does it go connected to what wire on the controller or if any please let me know I installed the green one now I'm working on the black 1 please let me know thank you
Hey great video very informative I just have a question for you type a question for you I installed my brake lights but I cannot get them to blink the light stays red but they don't drink when I hit the brakes is there any You can help me with that please let me know I appreciate it p.s Or maybe which color I gotta I gotta plug in that makes makes them blink
hallo ralf, ich suche nach einer Lösung das "blinking" Bremslicht abzustellen, denn beim Bremsen blinken die hinteren UND vorderen Turnsignal-Lichter. Dieses "Blinken" möchte ich abstellen. Vorne soll es beim Bremsen gar nicht leuchten bestenfalls. Beim Bremsen soll das Licht hinten nur stärker aufleuchten. Hast du eine Lösung?
Hallo Ralf! Vielen Dank für deine Videos und Infos über den Kaabo waren schon sehr hilfreich!!! Hast du vielleicht auch eine Idee wie man nur die seitliche blaue Beleuchtung abschalten kann? Würde gerne etwas "unauffälliger" am Abend fahren :-) Freu mich schon über weitere Tipps und Tricks von dir auf deinem Kanal - absolut TOP!! Dankeschön!
Hi, du kannst innen die Seitenlichter einfach abstecken. Wenn du das Kabel verfolgst gehten die Kabel von beiden Seitenlichtern dann in einen Stecker mitten im Batteriefach zusammen den man einfach abklemmen kann. Du musst dafür das Batteriefach öffnen.
Also sind die neueren PCB's verbessert und brennen nicht mehr durch? Ich habe vor einem Monat den Kaabo Mantis 10 Pro+ gekauft. Ich würde gerne , zusätzlich zu den originalen Rück- und Bremslichtern, das Brems- und Rücklicht des IO Hawk Legend Lite anschließen. Kann ich das einfach zusätzlich an den schwarzen und grünen PCB's anschließen, oder brennen die dann durch?
Hi, meines Wissens nach laufen die Mantis Lampen alle mit Nennspannung (=48V) und nicht mit 12V, (abgesehen vom Rück und Bremslicht!) das kann aber mittlerweile anders sein.
@@ralfhalbknapp1104 Makes sense. I wonder, Mantis have speed limiter cable as many other scooters, unplugging the cable removes the speed limit, so I wonder if it is possible to make it into a on/off switch somewhere outside instead of plug/unplug inside the deck via simple on/off switch/button, what do you think?
Excellent work. Is 100 ohm the recommended resistor value or would there be a better suit.. I have no knowledge with this but can certainly solder, t The 100ohm resistors I see have a different colour code to the ones you have used could you share the spec so I can make sure I do the job properly. Regards
@@ralfhalbknapp1104 Hi Ralf. Great work! I'm glad I found your video. I need the same repair procedure. Just wondering if any 100 ohm resistor will do? or it should have to be 1/2W 100 ohm? or 1/4W 100 ohm will do just fine?
Is the brake light 12volts? I'm trying to add brakelight/taillight to my kaabo wolf warrior but there are 4 wires inside and I'm confused. I thought there would be 3. 1 for negative and 2 for power 1+ for taillight and 1+ for brakelight I cant find wiring information anywhere
Hello. I bought an Yume M11 electric scooter. The scooter came with the rear light broken (the red diffuser ) and because was mounted on the rear fender after a while broke completely. Yume sent me a replacement but now I have no brake light. I changed the connectors between them and the led's are working either 2 either 3 from 5 total which 3 I presume should be for the brake light. I understood that the controller has a low and a high brake wire. Is the high 12V? I will mount a separate brake light but I see other connectors with only 1 wire. It means the wire is only +? If yes which one. And the ground is common with other ground wire? Please help me. [Smile]
Hi, I am sorry but i would assume that the Yume is totally different wired from a Mantis or some other scooters. I could only guess and that is a bad base for advice.
@@ralfhalbknapp1104 Hello and Happy new year. I believe uder different brands the functions are the same. The computer/display/accelerator on mine is the same. I discovered in the mean time that the light is controlled via a chip which sends power trough the wires only when the led's are working aka it senses a consumption. Maybe when the lamp broke caused a short and fried the chip. That means a controller replacement. I want to see what Yume has to tell about it. Worst case i have to buy another one. Thank you for the reply. Seems nobody knows what the high brake wire function is and why in all controller is only one. The low brake two.
Hi Ralf, i've the kaabo mantis 8, single motor. Can you help me to connect the led side light to the "dual" button on the consolle (because is un-used, because i'm single motor)?Thanks in advance :)
ralf halbknapp Hi please help i have Mantis 10 800w one motor how to connect both rear brake light and headlamps and side lights from the controller please help Instruction and photo how coonect please help this and cruise mode braking cruose mode dont turn off why?
hey bro, can u help me? i got a brand new mantis last week. was coming home from work tonight and got the e10 message and it turned off nd wont stay on since. it turns off immediately too and from what i've read its a controller error which considering how new it is and how it shut right off, do you think a wire got disconnected?
Unfortunately, this mistake (e10) is common with the Kaabo Mantis. The same is currently happening in Germany with the IO Hawk Legend which also comes from the Kaabo factory. It is either the controller or the motor that sends an error. If it is still very new, I would advise you to contact the dealer first about the warranty. Alternatively, you can open the deck yourself and check the plugs. However, it could be fixed with a software update at the dealer or the controller or the motor must be replaced. This should preferably always be done by the dealer. Especially if you have only bought the device, 100% of it is still covered by the warranty.
Hi, i just want to add a signal light to my mantis 10, my question is were can i get a supply for the power? Do you know what cable color can i tap it? Thank you
I guess you wpild have to add an additional 12V Converter to get the power. There should be an unused black/red line coming from the controller but anyway space is more of a problem in the Mantis.
Welches ABS? Der Minimotors Mantis hat zwar eine ABS Funktion die man im Display ein und Ausstellen kann aber dieses Setting verändert nur das Verhalten der Elektsichen Bremse. Wenn es dauernd bremst hat dein Bremssensor vielleicht was.
You would need a dc-dc converter to get from the 67,2V of the battery to like 12V or what ever you need. While These converter can be had at a cheap price you also have to fit it some where into the Scooter. So It may be easier to start with an external 12V Battery anyway and have All in a bag.
I was thinking on these turn signals. They are DC 12v. Ralf do you know if one can replace /and -or make an extension in the regular backlight cables? and attach the extension cord to these turn signals? (so both original turn signals and these light up, or just the new turn signals) ? www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Unique-Toughness-Bendable-Rubber-LED-Light_62121989324.html?spm=a2700.galleryofferlist.normalList.106.d6c8cf95IV0Ui2

Ja, danach gab es keine Probleme mehr.
I have a question. Do you need to disconnect the battery if you want to rewire/solder wires or is it safe to do without disconnecting everything.
Depends on your Skill. I typically disconnect the battery if i change or solder parts that can cause a short.

100 ohm is perfect. Just buy a restitor with 100 ohm and test it with a multimeter.

What is plus and minus? Is green minus and yellow plus?

Ist es bei den neueren Mantis auch ein 100 Ohm wiederstand?
Das Problem sollte an sich schon lange behoben sein und war hauptsächlich zum Zeitpunkt des Videos aktuell.
Bei mir ist es jetzt so, daß das ABS immer aktiv ist. Auch wenn ich die Bremse gar nicht betätige. Was kann das sein?
Welches ABS? Der Minimotors Mantis hat zwar eine ABS Funktion die man im Display ein und Ausstellen kann aber dieses Setting verändert nur das Verhalten der Elektsichen Bremse. Wenn es dauernd bremst hat dein Bremssensor vielleicht was.
What is the end result? Do all the leds blink now when you press the brake or only 1?
Yes, they do (all rear blink)
I need to pull hard before the brake light blinking. Is there any way to make it more sensitive?
i guess that may be the brake sensors on the brake lever. I would start to check there.
Hätte ein paar Fragen. Kann man dich kontaktieren? Gruß
Hi. I have trouble opening my deck and dont want to mess anything up. How did you open yours? I unscrewed All the screws but it sits super tight
On newer Versions it may be sealed with some kind of silicone or so. Other then that it may just sit tight...
is it possible to add front headlight and turn signal light then connect it to internal battery?
You would need a dc-dc converter to get from the 67,2V of the battery to like 12V or what ever you need. While These converter can be had at a cheap price you also have to fit it some where into the Scooter. So It may be easier to start with an external 12V Battery anyway and have All in a bag.

if i connect small motorcycle light, can i connect it to the front small light cable? is it able to handle the power?
No, because it is connected to a very thin cable so it can not support much load.
