      Thank you again. Scooters are new to Canada and there isn’t a lot of info or scooters available yet. This will make my transition from car mechanic to Scooter tech much easier.

      Thank you! Too many people end up with broken scooters so if we can help just one person fix their ride in the future it will all be worth it. Lots of repair/modding videos in the works.

      Awesome 👍. We need this. I'm ordering the screw extraction tool right now.
      Are you guys going to offer to work on PEV,s for people ? I think they would be good money in it. ✌️

      Thanks! The mantis is a solid scooter, but we’re going to feature it a lot I think since so many people have them here (it’s inevitable that something goes wrong or needs to be replaced).

    Congrats on the shop. I’m a small business owner in Utah (nothing to do with PEV’s) and I kno how much everything it takes to take the leap into being on your own and creating your future rather then reacting to what happens in life. That’s huge man. Life will NEVER be the same. 💵 😀

    • @AlienWorks
      @AlienWorks  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yeah, hard to say, there is kind of a rats nest of wires in most of these scooters. It could’ve been rubbing up on a connector or something. Better wire management would be nice.

      It’s totally possible, but you would need to wire them yourself to a switch. Not an easy task, but doable. Will try to make a video on that in the future.

    Hello I also have one kaabo mantis and I wad happy with it until today … yesterday at night I noticed that the front motor was working a bit strange like sometimes was working sometimes not! I tried to take it out and take a look if something was lose or with bad conection and it was normal for my eyes ( I am not a professional ) I put everything together again and the front motor don’t work at all 😖 can you help me with that ?! Do you have any guess what it could be ?

    • @AlienWorks
      @AlienWorks  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      We'll try to get to that one, but it might take a while. I think you can do it though, you should be able to take off the deck and find the two wires coming out of the battery. Often one of them will have a small box that the fuse is inside of. You should be able to open up the box and replace the fuse. Good luck!

      So let me get this straight, i tried to charge my scooter, but the led indicates green light and doesn’t turn red. charger power is currently on 49%. it was faulty from the moment i unboxed. i been told is the fuse that needs replacement. but i am not sure how to do so.
      What do you reckon is the problem?

    • @AlienWorks
      @AlienWorks  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@PSTRIPPLEE I’m actually not sure it’s the fuse, if it was it would be unlikely to run/ride. Does it ride ok? Seems like it could be a bad charger or bms... might be worth testing a new charger, and also testing your charger on another scooter. Sorry you have those problems, one of the reasons for this channel, But it will take some time to build up a library here.
