How to Disassemble and Replace the Small Display Throttle on Your Arwibon GT08

The cockpit controls on your arwibon GT08 serve as the direct link between the rider and the dual-motor powertrain. Mounted on the right side of the handlebar, the circular small display integrates the trigger throttle, power lock ignition key cylinder, digital voltmeter readout, and drive-mode selector into a single, compact control pod.

If your arwibon electric scooter takes a direct impact, suffers water intrusion from a heavy downpour, or exhibits an unresponsive index-finger throttle trigger or cracked LCD casing, replacing this display assembly restores immediate control.

Here is the complete, workshop-tested guide to unwrapping the wiring loom, disconnecting the quick-release signal connector, and removing the small display throttle assembly from your arwibon GT08.

Tools and Equipment Checklist

Before beginning the disassembly procedure on your arwibon scooter, prepare the following items:

• Metric Hex / Allen Key Set (Specifically 3mm and 4mm sizes): For loosening the brake lever clamp, the dual-button switch bracket, and the main display rear clamping screws.

• Clean Cloth: To wipe down the bare handlebar surface once components are removed.

• Insulating Work Gloves: Protects hands while handling tight spiral cable wrap.

Step-by-Step Disassembly Walkthrough

Step 1: Unwrap the Handlebar Spiral Cable Sleeve

1. Position yourself facing the cockpit of your arwibon e scooter.

2. Locate the black spiral wrap (wire sleeve) bundling the main harness, brake cable, and display wires along the upper steering column and right handlebar bend.

3. Use your fingers to peel open the upper end of the plastic spiral sleeve.

4. Uncoil the wrap downwards along the stem harness run until the individual wires inside are fully exposed and slack.

Step 2: Disconnect the Waterproof Display Signal Cable

1. Trace the short, round black lead originating directly from the base of the small display pod down into the unwrapped harness bundle.

2. Locate the in-line round multi-pin waterproof quick-disconnect plug (connection cable for small gauges).

3. Grip both halves of the molded connector bodies firmly with your hands.

4. Pull them straight apart in opposite directions. Avoid twisting while pulling to prevent bending the internal alignment pins.

Step 3: Remove the Right Handlebar Grip

1. Move to the outer tip of the right handlebar.

2. Firmly grip the ergonomic rubber handlebar grip with both hands.

3. Twist and pull the grip outward toward the bar end until it slides completely off the aluminum handlebar tube.

Step 4: Loosen and Slide Off the Right Brake Lever Perch

1. Locate the mounting clamp bolt on the underside of the right brake lever assembly.

2. Insert a 4mm or 5mm hex key into the clamp bolt and turn counter-clockwise until the clamp loosens.

3. Slide the entire brake lever assembly outward along the handlebar tube and remove it from the bar end, letting it rest gently to the side on its cable.

Step 5: Remove the ECO/TURBO Dual-Button Switch Assembly

1. Locate the small dual-button auxiliary switch pod (Yellow/Red buttons) mounted adjacent to the ignition key cylinder.

2. Insert a small hex key into the clamp bolt securing the switch bracket to the handlebar.

3. Loosen the bolt completely, separate the bracket clamp from the bar, and set the switch assembly aside.

Step 6: Loosen the Small Display Rear Clamping Bolts

1. Look at the backside of the small display throttle housing where it clamps around the 22mm handlebar.

2. Identify the two horizontal hex clamp screws securing the rear half of the split clamp collar.

3. Insert a 3mm hex key into each screw.

4. Loosen both screws evenly by turning counter-clockwise until the clamp pressure releases and the screws back out.

Step 7: Slide the Small Display Assembly Off the Handlebar

1. Support the main body of the display pod with one hand.

2. Gently twist the housing to break any surface adhesion against the handlebar metal.

3. Slide the entire small display throttle and ignition cylinder assembly smoothly outward off the open end of the right handlebar.

4. Guide the detached signal cable through the steering stem area to finish removing the component from your arwibon.

Reassembly & Installation Tips for Your Arwibon

• Connector Pin Alignment: When installing the replacement display on your arwibon GT08, inspect the round waterproof plug before joining. Align the raised internal plastic keyway with the matching notch on the female receptacle, then press straight together until the collar seats fully flush.

• Throttle Angle Positioning: Before tightening the two rear 3mm clamping screws, sit or stand on your scooter in your natural riding stance. Rotate the display housing until the trigger throttle aligns comfortably with your index finger without bending your wrist upward or downward.

• Tightening Sequence: Reinstall the ECO/TURBO switch, brake lever perch, and handlebar grip in reverse order. Ensure adequate clearance (at least 2–3mm) remains between the inside edge of the rubber grip and the rotating throttle mechanism so the throttle snaps back to the idle position without sticking or catching on arwibon scooters.
