I have an early version of a ew36 scooter and need to retrofit a speed pot. How do I do this, and any other info or schematics would be great. Thanks

I am guessing I could put a pot in series with the throttle. This would be on the low variable voltage wiper lead. I need to know if this is how you do this, if not how. I also need to know what is the value in ohms of the pot to use and how to identify the right cable. Any or all of this info would be so helpful. It would in fact be grateful for any info at all that you have on this scooter as anything is so difficult to come by. Wiring diagrams, schematics, part types and brands etc. Thanks so much, all the best, John Hill.

The manufacturer has a variable speed control on the latest version of the ew36. My best suggestion is to contact the manufacturer for the part if it was not available on your version. They may have a retrofit kit with the harness and schematic so you do not have to reinvent the wheel or damage the existing components. You may need a new console cover where the speed control is mounted near the throttle lever. The manufacturer has done the work already and should provide the best guidance. Under driving the digital electronics with a home grown component may produce poor performance and potentially damage the controller sensing circuit. Hope this helps.

Testimonial: "Thanks, appreciate your response. I have done all that, but still no help of info. Fixya is really my last resort. If I can find out how to do it including modding the dashboard I should be able to do it."

2013 EW36 ewheel scooter. Why doesn't it start?

I think the the fuse is under the head light cowling glass type 25 amp fuse. Your throttle, motor wiring, or controller maybe causing this problem.

Scooter has very little power just replaced both batteries what else do i check

check the spped control pot and the throttle pot. You will need a ohm meter to check both pots Usually replacing the speed pot will help but it could be both speed and throttle pot Hope this helps

Hi my scooter will drive in reverse on its own at all kinds of speeds if u leave the key on and is slow in forward only it will only stop in reverse if you turn of key or disconnect the forward or reverse...

Hi tandseaster,
I have owned my own business for 3 years and have been working on scooters and powerchairs for 15 years. I know exactly what the problem is. I can almost tell you what kind of scooter you have. In the future give as much info about the scooter as possible.
Your problem is the throttle pot or somtime called the engager.
You can do one of two things. 1. Open the faceplate to your tiller. look for a lock nut on the throttle pot. loosen it, on the bottom of the pot is a slot for a flat tip screwdriver. Take the key out before you start this procedure. You can turn the screw slot on the pot a little at a time, one way then the other. Turn the key back on, turn the speed pot to lowest speed so the scooter won't take off on you. Once you align the throttle pot to neutral tighten the lock nut. The easiest way to fix your problem is:
2. Replace the throttle pot.
Your problem will be fixed.

Good Luck
Tim

My scooter is too slow,the battery charges,but it only drives at very slow speed,while going backwards it goes fast.Can you tell me what to do?

I have owned my own business for 3 years and have been working on scooters and powerchairs for 15 years. In the future give as much info about the scooter as possible.
1. Replace the throttle pot and or the speed pot.
2. Sometimes even batteries that take a charge are not strong enough to run the scooter. Have them load tested at an auto parts store to make sure. If you have bad batteries that will make you scooter do what you say it's doing. Don't forget your reverse speed is only 1/2 as fast as the forward speed on all scooters.

Good Luck
