*If  the  Motor  is  good  and  the  Batteries  are  charged  the  wheel  will  spin  at  full  power  in 

which case the Controller may need to be replaced.   

 

*If the Motor did Not run then the Batteries will need to be checked to confirm they are 

holding a charge.

How To Replace A Controller 

 

1) Find the Derailer plug on the controller, it is the only one with 3wires in the connection.   

This is the throttle.    Plug it in to the male 3 wire connection coming down from the handle 

bars. 

2) Plug the motor plug into the wires coming from the motor usually has blue and white 

wires that are larger in size than the other wires.     

3) Find the battery connection coming off the controller, this has the same sized wires as 

the motor connection.    Plug this connection into the wires coming off of the batteries.     

4) Locate the wires coming off the charger socket, usually red and black and plug into the 

connection on the controller marked charger. 

5) Locate the wires coming from the on and off switch it has 3 wires usually red black and 

green the red and green goes to the connection marked locl and that usually has red and 

blue  wires  the  black  wire that  you  have  left  over  goes  to  the  connection  that  is  marked 

output power supply that has a red and black wires plug these into each other. 

6) You now have a plug marked brake with yellow and black wires this is where your last 

plug goes.    The last plug is for a brake signal which is not an option on the X-250. 

 

 

How To Replace Brake Cable 

 

1) Loosen the Pinch Nut on your brake hub to slide the Brake Cable out. 

2) Remove the Axle Nuts and Chain Tensioners and Axle from the complete rear wheel. 

3) Slide the Belt off of the Hub. 

4) Remove the complete Rear Wheel. 

5) Remove the Footplate from the frame in order to access the Brake Cable. 

6) Cut the Black Casing off that hides all of your wires going Up the Handlebar Post. 

7) Locate the Brake Cable and pull out; replacing it with the new Brake Cable. 

8) You can replace the black casing with cable ties to keep the wires together along side 

the handlebar post. 

9) Put the complete rear wheel back onto the frame and slide the Belt back onto the hub. 

Verify that the Brake is fitting correctly as well.

wheel is centered. Tighten the Axle Nut.
