If you're experiencing issues with your E100 electric scooter motor, you're not alone. Many riders encounter this problem, but the good news is that it can often be resolved with some basic tools and a little bit of patience. This guide will walk you through the steps to fix the inside of an E100 electric scooter motor. Make sure to follow each step carefully to ensure a successful repair.


Tools and Materials Needed

  • Socket wrench

  • Cleaning brush

  • Replacement parts (if necessary)

  • Lubricating oil


Steps to Fix the Inside of an E100 Electric Scooter Motor


1. Safety First


Before you begin, disconnect the scooter from any power source to ensure your safety.


2. Remove the Motor Housing


Using a screwdriver, remove the screws that hold the motor housing in place. Carefully lift off the housing to expose the internal components.


3. Inspect the Brushes and Commutator


One common issue is worn-out brushes or a dirty commutator. Inspect these components for wear and tear. If the brushes are worn, they will need to be replaced. Clean the commutator using a cleaning brush and compressed air.


4. Check the Bearings


Sometimes the bearings inside the motor can become worn or damaged. Check for any signs of wear and replace them if necessary.


5. Clean the Motor


Dirt and debris can accumulate inside the motor, causing it to malfunction. Use compressed air to clean out any debris and ensure all parts are free of dust and dirt.


6. Lubricate Moving Parts


Apply a small amount of lubricating oil to the moving parts of the motor. This will help them operate smoothly and extend the life of the motor.


7. Reassemble the Motor Housing


Carefully reassemble the motor housing by placing it back in position and securing it with screws. Make sure all components are correctly aligned before tightening the screws.


8. Test the Motor


Reconnect the scooter to a power source and test the motor to ensure it's working correctly. If the motor still doesn’t work, you may need to consult a professional for further assistance.

  • Regularly clean and lubricate the motor to keep it in good working condition.

  • Avoid riding in wet or muddy conditions, as this can cause damage to the motor.

  • Periodically check and replace worn-out parts to prevent future problems.


By following these steps, you can fix the inside of an E100 electric scooter motor and extend the life of your scooter. Remember, regular maintenance is key to keeping your scooter in top condition!
