Make sure you do not overload the vehicle by allowing more than one rider at
one time, exceeding the 59 kg (130 lbs). maximum weight capacity, or by towing
objects behind the vehicle. If the vehicle is overloaded, the built-in thermal
fuse in the battery may “trip”, and automatically shut down. Adjust the driving
conditions to prevent repeated automatic shutdowns.

Loose wire or connector
Check all wires around the motors and all connectors to run, but other times it
does make sure they are tight.
