Hi ... So if I understand correctly, you only need to buy a dashboard, and replace it?

Does fake work or not? I did not understand very well ...

Just replace the dashboard and we can ride with?
:D
Thank you

I bought 2 scooter , $270 each, from design to app, charger, battery, texture on scooter, all show M365 and Xiaomi.
however, this scooter can not folding. I plan to replace the folding, I took out 4 hex screws, but the 5th is not hex, I tried many things but I could not find out what is it.

Anyone know how to take this out?

What is the link you guys are using to buy the circuit board from right now? I know there was a few posted in the beginning but not sure if they work still.

There were two links that seemed promising: https://www.ebay.com/p/Repair-Parts-Cir ... 3942419471

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Durable-Board- ... ctupt=true

Can anyone let me know if these circuits are good or which one I should buy?

Thanks!

Bought this one:

It is OEM, not a clone.
Shipped fast from LA.

First, you got ripped off. You bought a stolen Bird scooter, which is cool and fine, but you shouldn't have paid $270 becuase that's regular price for a used scooter that isn't stolen.

Second, to take off, drill or cut off that. Just cut it flush, it's like a mushroom head (it's a rivet). Once you get it flush, you can punch/press the rest of it into the hole, and the rivet will fall through and out. I used a dremel cutting/grinding tool, a hand saw or file could work too. Or a drill but you'll damage the drill bit.

OEM folding poles can be purchased at https://www.ebay.com/itm/113469875711 and "submit offer" for $50.

I have one if you want. It's non-oem, so can't be used to flash custom firmware, but works for the app and lights and everything else. Comes with 3 screws and a cover (the black piece with button to press and the 4 battery level lights). $25 shipped. Email me at gmail: user2400@

The ones you listed don't have a cover, so you'll have to spend an extra $5 to buy separately.

If you want an OEM one that can be used for flashing https://www.ebay.com/itm/183489822032

HELP: M365 Pro Overheated When Going Up Hill - Error Code 40

I just bought a M365 Pro and went uphill on a 15% incline with a fully charged battery. It stuttered and shut down giving a red code 40 error (overheated). Anyone know if this requires changing the motor, motherboard or any other fix? I waited for it to cool down and still same issue.
