Firmware update fails, bricking the scooter, scooter not moving
Firmware updates are essential for optimal performance, but sometimes issues can arise that prevent your scooter from operating. If a firmware update fails or bricks your scooter, follow these steps:
Step 1: Keep the Scooter Awake During Updates
-
Ensure the scooter does not enter Dormant or Sleep mode while updating.
-
Avoid any automatic shutdowns or interruptions during the update process.
Step 2: Update While Charging
-
Connect the scooter to a charger to ensure uninterrupted power during the firmware installation.
-
Reattempt the firmware update if it fails the first time.
Step 3: If the Scooter Is Bricked
-
Contact your dealer or manufacturer immediately.
-
They can guide you through a firmware recovery procedure or, if necessary, a controller replacement.
Important Note
-
Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions carefully when updating firmware.
-
Avoid using third-party tools that may not be compatible, as this can void warranties or permanently damage your scooter.
