Mar 5, 2023 - To remove the speed limiter is by removing the fuse that controls the speed limiter. This is located under the seat on most scooters.

How do you remove the speed limiter on a TGA mobility scooter?

Generally, you can follow two methods to remove the speed limiter, depending on how it's connected to the scooter's wiring.

1. One method is disconnecting the wires from the speed limiter.
2. Another method is removing the speed limiter entirely and connecting the wires.

How to Remove Speed Limiter on Mobility Scooter

If Hand Wind---Ajust screw device on swing arm clockwise

usual cause of this is the throttle (wig-wag ) controll potentiometer has worn out.to test put the scooter against a wall and get a freind to lift up the rear of the scooter and put 2 large blocks of wood underneath it so the back wheels can rotate
carefully advance the throttle 1/2 way then with wheels turning.keep in same position and gently move the throttle lever up and down .if there is a lot of play and the speed varies drasticaly then pot replacement reqd .you can get a dealer to order the correct one or get one off the internett but when fittinf if thr pot is not set to exact center with multimeter scooter will not move and produce off center error code

hi what happening to the battery power indicator while this happens ?

if you are sure the batteries are okay , look at the connections to the rear axle, making sure they are a good clean connection, you be amazed the problems with those connectors...

1. Motor breaking down.. ( Resistance changing ), Brush less motor otherwise check the brushes...
2.Brake coming on so slowing the scooter down.
3.The output stage of the controller is breaking down....

The speed pot may need to be replaced. They do wear out after time.

Hi John.
The problem could be a worn throttle pot ( wig wag ). Next time you are driving the scooter, try moving the ends of the speed lever slowly up and down, instead of in or out as you normally use it. If the throttle pot is worn, moving the lever this way will make the machine speed up or slow down.
Another cause might be a faulty battery lead connector or a faulty motor connector.
Good luck. Neil.

Hi. Does the machine do this more soon after removing the machine off the charger? When a mobility scooter is going down hill, the controller feeds the voltage generated by the motor back into the batteries. When I an testing machines here at the workshop, I have seen cases where 10 to 12 amps is going back into the batteries on a down hill run. If the batteries are fully charged or unable to take much current, the controller slows the scooter right down to limit the higher voltage generated.
It might pay to check the battery leads and connectors as well, and get the batteries tested.
While you are driving along, try moving the speed lever slowly up and down, not in and out as you normally use it. Sometimes a faulty speed pot ( wig wag ) will cause the speed to change.
Good luck. Neil.

Hi, That sounds like the speed pot is faulty,

When going along push the lever in the upwards direction as well as forward , does it speed up ? does it response ? if so then that's the problem.

There could be a issue with the metal key making a good contact when inserted.

ok, sounds like the speed pot,

Can you move the throttle lever up and down, try going along at a constant speed (losing power ?) then move the lever up & down ?

does it improve response ? if so replace the speed pot.

Ohm chech the brake. It should be around 35 ohms.
