Repair Guide

Dismounting the rear driven hub motor wheel on an arwibon gt06 scooter and companion platforms like the gt06 is required when replacing punctured off-road pneumatic tires, servicing warped brake rotors, or renewing hub axle bearings. The rear hub houses both the pneumatic rim and the high-output permanent-magnet brushless motor, routed directly to the under-deck motor inverter via copper phase rings and Hall sensor leads. Because the axle carries vehicle weight and motor drive torque, removal requires a two-stage procedure: isolating the high-voltage electrical box to withdraw the harness through the chassis, followed by unbolting mechanical torque tabs and axle nuts to release the dropouts.

This technical gt06 electric scooter manual delivers the direct workshop sequence to access the deck bay, uncouple inverter phase blocks, release disc calipers, back out torque plate screws, and pull the complete rear motor tire assembly on your arwibon scooter, arwibon gt06, and related arwibon scooters.

High-Voltage DC Isolation, Phase Ring Terminals, and Axle Flats

Before loosening axle hardware on your arwibon e scooter, evaluate the mechanical and electrical constraints across the rear swingarm of the gt06 scooter:

1. Capacitive Inverter Discharge and Phase Arcing: The motor controller links directly to the rear hub via three ring terminals (yellow, green, and blue phase lines) bolted to a busbar block. Pulling the yellow XT60 DC battery feed plug is required prior to loosening terminal screws to prevent short-circuit sparks from charged capacitors on high-power arwibon scooters.

2. Harness Extraction Through Frame Bores: The motor wire bundle contains five fine Hall sensor wires and three heavy 10-AWG phase lines inside a shared rubber sleeve. Forcing the bundled spade terminals through the swingarm grommet without staggering their metal eyelets will tear internal copper strands on your arwibon electric scooter.

3. Machined Axle Flats and Torque Tab Alignment: The 14mm motor shaft incorporates parallel ground flats that seat into open swingarm dropouts, supported by external slotted torque bracket plates. These plates prevent rotational axle reaction forces from spinning inside the aluminum dropouts and shearing the cable entry collar.

Technical Specifications & Service Bench Prerequisites

Ensure your workshop bench is equipped with the following hand tools and support stands before starting:

• Wheel Assembly: 11-inch off-road pneumatic tire mounted on a split-rim brushless hub motor.

• Axle Hardware: 2 M14 flanged axle nuts (18mm/21mm hex), slotted steel anti-rotation torque brackets, and M5 locking screws.

• Electrical Interfaces: Yellow XT60 main DC battery plug, white 6-pin nylon Hall sensor plug, and 3 M4 screw-down phase terminals.

• Required Shop Tools: 3mm, 4mm, and 5mm T-handle hex keys, electric driver with 4mm hex bit, 18mm or 21mm open-end combination wrench, diagonal wire snips, and clean shop cloths.

• Chemical Solvents: 90%+ Isopropyl alcohol (IPA) to clean dropout slots and axle threads.

Critical Safety Parameter: Always decouple the yellow battery power supply plug before using metal screwdrivers near the controller terminal block on the arwibon scooter gt06. Touching the tool between a live rail and chassis ground creates an immediate arc hazard.

Step-by-Step Rear Tire & Hub Motor Removal Procedure

Execute this mechanical teardown and electrical isolation sequence in chronological order on your GT06 scooter:

Step 1: Unthread Deck Screws and Remove Cover 00:00:00

Position the scooter on a sturdy maintenance stand so the rear drive wheel hangs completely free of the floor on your gt06 electric scooter.

Take an electric driver fitted with a 4mm hex bit 00:00:01. Locate the 10 button-head socket screws spaced around the perimeter of the black metal deck plate 00:00:02.

Rotate counterclockwise to unthread all 10 perimeter screws 00:00:04. Collect the fasteners in a magnetic tray.

Grasp the outer edges of the metal cover 00:00:05. Lift the plate straight upward and remove it from the chassis 00:00:06 to expose the internal battery and controller bay 00:00:07.

Step 2: Unplug Battery DC Supply and Hall Sensor Plugs 00:00:09

Locate the wiring cluster situated between the front of the lithium-ion battery pack and the rear motor controller 00:00:08.

Grasp the yellow high-current XT60 main battery power cord connector 00:00:10. Pull the connector halves straight apart along their horizontal axis 00:00:13 to de-energize the controller bus.

Reach deeper into the wiring harness to locate the white 6-pin nylon motor Hall sensor plug 00:00:20. Depress the center locking tab with your thumb 00:00:23 and separate the connector 00:00:26 on your arwibon gt06 electric scooter.

Step 3: Unbolt Controller Phase Line Terminals 00:00:30

Locate the terminal block cover situated along the front edge of the motor controller casing 00:00:31. Lift off the black rubber protective insulation boot 00:00:33.

Identify the three motor connection terminal screws holding the yellow, green, and blue motor phase leads 00:00:37.

Insert an electric driver or 3mm hex key into the right terminal screw 00:00:38. Rotate counterclockwise to unthread and remove the screw 00:00:40.

Repeat on the center and left terminal screws 00:00:41. Lift the three ring terminals off the threaded brass busbar studs 00:00:44.

Step 4: Disconnect Signal Plugs and Extract Harness 00:00:51

Locate the rear turn signal and auxiliary lighting connector pair 00:01:00. Press the clip and separate the plug halves 00:01:05.

Gather the freed motor phase leads, the white Hall connector, and auxiliary wires 00:01:07. Feed them outward through the rubber grommet port at the rear right chassis bulkhead 00:01:09.

Pull the complete motor cable harness clear of the chassis tray 00:01:10. Drape the harness loosely over the rear swingarm 00:01:12 on your arwibon gt06.

Step 5: Dismount Rear Disc Brake Caliper 00:01:35

Move to the left side of the rear swingarm assembly. Locate the mechanical or hydraulic disc brake caliper clamped over the rotor 00:01:36.

Insert a 5mm hex key into the forward caliper mounting bolt 00:01:37. Rotate counterclockwise to unthread the screw 00:01:39.

Insert the hex wrench into the rear caliper mounting bolt 00:01:40. Turn counterclockwise to extract the fastener 00:01:42.

Slide the caliper body off the edge of the brake disc rotor 00:01:43. Rest the caliper safely on the work stand to prevent pulling the hydraulic hose or mechanical cable.

Step 6: Unbolt Torque Tab Positioning Screws 00:01:46

Locate the black steel anti-rotation torque bracket plate seated against the outer face of the left swingarm dropout 00:01:47.

Insert a 4mm hex key into the positioning bolt securing the torque bracket tab to the swingarm plate 00:01:48. Rotate counterclockwise to unthread and extract the bolt 00:01:50.

Move around to the right swingarm plate 00:01:51. Insert the 4mm hex key into the right-side torque plate positioning screw 00:01:52. Rotate counterclockwise to back out and remove the screw 00:01:54.

Step 7: Loosen Axle Nuts and Drop Out Motor Wheel 00:01:55

Fit an 18mm or 21mm open-end combination spanner onto the right-side motor axle nut 00:01:57. Turn counterclockwise to loosen the nut 00:01:59. Spin the nut completely off the axle threads 00:02:02. Remove the outer torque bracket plate.

Move the spanner to the left-side motor axle nut 00:02:04. Rotate counterclockwise to break holding torque 00:02:05. Spin the nut off the axle threads 00:02:07 and remove the left torque bracket plate.

Place both hands under the tread of the 11-inch rear tire 00:02:08. Pull the wheel assembly downward and slightly rearward 00:02:11.

Slide the axle flats out of the swingarm dropout channels 00:02:13. Clear the wheel completely from the chassis and lower the motor tire assembly onto the floor 00:02:14 on your arwibon.

Preventative Inspection & Reinstallation Guidelines

• Dropout Flat Integrity Audit: Inspect the interior shoulders of the aluminum swingarm dropouts on the arwibon. If the axle flats have wallowed or rounded the aluminum slots, install steel torque reinforcement plates before driving high-amperage current through the hub.

• Phase Terminal Re-Torque Specification: When rebolting the yellow, green, and blue phase ring terminals to the controller busbar, torque the M4 machine screws to 2.2–2.5 Nm. Loose phase terminals generate localized electrical resistance, melting terminal blocks under heavy acceleration.

• Component Sourcing Standards: If motor stator windings overheat or axle shafts bend from heavy impacts, replace the hub using authentic arwibon GT06 parts or certified arwibon scooter parts to ensure matched phase winding resistance and compatible Hall sensor logic.
