I have a problem with a Drive Mini Phantom scooter. If you picture the speed control dial as a clock with the slow (turtle) position at 7:00 and the fast (rabbit) position at 5:00, the scooter does not move from 7:00 to the 1:00 position. From 1:00 to the max position, it moves only slowly. I replaced the speed pot and dial assembly, but still have the same problem. Any suggestions?

Hi is the on /off switch a proper key lock, or a round plug. If it is a round plug then the switch is probably a mono plug available from any radio repair shop. I have changed a few of these.
Is the name phantom a proper brand name, or just a name the importer put on it. Have a llok inside the covers and see if you can find another name, or a serial number sticker.
Good luck. Neil.

I would suspect that the brake is not releasing causing your problem. When you place the handle in freewheel and you can't push the scooter easily then the brake pad is stuck on the motor housing. If you are able remove the seat and back cover remove the drive wheel on the side of the scooter nearest the freewheel lever usually the right side. you should be able to see the brake attached to the end of the motor with 3 or 4 hex head screws. take the brake off the end of the motor and carefully leave the wiring attached ( don't break or remove the wires going to the brake or the scooter will not run at all) remove the brake and place or tie it up where it won't fall or drag. Put the drive wheel back on and turn the scooter on and see if it will now move. If it moves like it should you will have to replace the brake. You can drive the scooter like this but remember you do not have brakes so the scooter can roll backwards or forward when not on and especially on ramps Hope this helps

SOURCE: Disable back-up warning on Drive Phantom Scooter

Most of these units have the back up buzzer shrink-wrapped together in the wiring harness under the rear shroud. aka motor cover. The buzzer is typically between the size of a 25 and 50 cent piece, is black and has two very small wires coming out of it - one red and one black. You can cut one wire where you can reconnect it later - just in case you cut the wrong wire!
