If your Evolve board’s motor isn’t performing right, it’s important to pinpoint the issue before replacing parts. This guide will help you diagnose motor concerns and isolate the problem.

Step-by-Step Diagnosis:

1. Identify the Issue

• Is the motor not spinning?
• Is it making unusual noises (grinding, clicking, or high-pitched whines)?
• Is one motor weaker or less responsive than the other?

2. Swap the Motor Connections

• Power off the board.
• Disconnect the motor cables and swap them to the opposite outputs.
• Lift the board (wheels off the ground) and test throttle input.

3. Assess the Results

• If the same motor is still faulty, the issue is likely with the motor itself.
• If the problem moves to the other motor, the motor controller could be the issue.
• If the problem disappears, check for a loose connection and reassemble.
