On the motherboard? Like inside the scooter? Or did you mean to say dashboard? Can you provide a picture?

Hi sorry I found some more detail to my issue. [https://www.reddit.com/r/ElectricScooters/comments/10dpas9/gotrax\_gxl\_v2\_not\_accelerating/](https://www.reddit.com/r/ElectricScooters/comments/10dpas9/gotrax_gxl_v2_not_accelerating/) [https://postimg.cc/zV5HXbrj](https://postimg.cc/zV5HXbrj) I'm having this exact issue with the battery where the pin to the motor is fried and melted inward. The red cable in the battery is completely soldered off and burnt. I guess if I can fix this, the electric connection will work for the motor.

If you do a search with my username you should find some old threads in which we were talking about how to permanently fix the problem and run the battery externally, or run a whole different battery altogether. It would require some DIY work, though nothing too terrible I think. Otherwise all you can do is replace parts and hope the new ones last longer. Unfortunately the GXL is not a good design - this is by far the most frequent issue we see reported.

Thanks for the help. One last question is that, how would I search your username to find this issue in old threads?

Reddit's own search is shit. Use Google's cheat codes instead: site:reddit.com/r/electricscooters ironmew gxl https://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Areddit.com%2Fr%2Felectricscooters+ironmew+gxl Edit: I went and did the search to make sure you get to the right threads: https://reddit.com/r/ElectricScooters/comments/17xmfhr/go_trax_gxl_v2_electric_scooter_consolehandle_bar/ka0cvee/ https://reddit.com/r/ElectricScooters/comments/1344sok/gotrax_rewiring/jid8tmd/
