For battery replacements, we highly recommend having this done by one of our repair locations, but if you are comfortable with this type of repair, then you can follow this guide. Please be aware that damage due to an improper battery replacement is not covered under the warranty. 


With a little bit of time, and effort the batteries in all of our scooters are removable! This guide will show you how to reset and remove the battery in your scooter. 


Note: This guide best applies to the following scooters: City 2020-21, Explore 2020-21, Ghost, and Pro 2020 although the general process can also be applied to other models. 


Steps:
