Why is Gogoro Viva scooter not starting?

Check the Battery Level

• Gogoro scooters run on a swappable battery system. If the battery is low or dead, your scooter won't start. Check the battery gauge to confirm the battery level.

 

• Swap the depleted batteries with fully charged ones from a nearby Gogoro battery swapping station.

Inspect the Kill Switch

• The kill switch is a safety feature that prevents the engine from starting when engaged. Ensure the kill switch is in the "run" position.

 

• The position usually shows a circle with a line going through it. If it is in the wrong position, flip it to the correct setting.

Ensure Scooter is in the Right Mode

• The Gogoro Viva must be in the appropriate mode to start. Verify that it is set to "Ready" or a similar setting for operation.

 

• If you suspect the mode setting is incorrect, adjust it following the instructions in your scooter's manual.

Examine the Brake Levers

• Some scooters require you to squeeze the brake levers before starting the engine for safety. Ensure both brake levers are fully engaged.

 

• Try squeezing both levers again and then attempt to start the scooter.

Check for Faulty Fuses

• Electrical problems might be caused by a blown fuse. Locate the fuse box, typically under the seat or near the battery compartment.

 

• Check each fuse to ensure they are intact. Replace any blown fuses with those of the same amperage.

Investigate for Any Error Codes

• Your Gogoro scooter might display error codes when there's an issue. Look at the dashboard for any indicators or error messages.

 

• Refer to the user manual or contact Gogoro support for help in interpreting these codes and their solutions.

Seek Professional Assistance

• If all else fails, there could be a more complex technical issue. It may not be wise to attempt further fixes if you're unsure about the problem.

 

• Visit a Gogoro service center or contact support for professional help. They can diagnose and resolve issues more accurately.
