The Original Placentia E-bike Repair, established 2023

7+ years hands on experience · Placentia, CA · By appointment

Electric vehicle repair,
without the guesswork.

Specialized repair and diagnostics for eBikes, scooters, and eMotos.

Controller problems. Motor faults. Battery issues. Wiring nightmares. Throttle failures. Performance problems. I diagnose and repair the electrical and mechanical systems behind today's electric bikes, scooters, and e motos.

Experience

When the problem isn't obvious, experience matters.

A modern electric vehicle is a system. The battery, BMS, controller, motor, throttle, display, sensors, wiring, connectors, communication lines, and charging system all interact — and a fault in one place often shows up somewhere else.

I specialize in finding the actual source of the problem rather than replacing parts until something works. Component level troubleshooting, electrical testing, and 7+ years of practical repair experience on these systems.

"Good diagnostics can save you from replacing expensive parts that were never actually bad."

Process

Diagnose first. Repair with a reason.

01

Tell me what's happening

Call and describe the symptoms, recent changes, modifications, error codes, or failures.

02

Diagnose the system

The vehicle is tested systematically to identify the actual source of the problem.

03

Explain the findings

You hear what failed, why it failed, and what repair or replacement options make sense.

04

Repair / upgrade

Complete the agreed repair, replacement, wiring work, tuning, or upgrade.

Why this shop

Not your average bike shop.

Plenty of bicycle shops are excellent at bicycle mechanics. Modern electric vehicles are part bicycle, part motorcycle, and part electrical system. When the problem involves controllers, battery management, motor signals, wiring, sensors, or system configuration, specialized knowledge matters.

Specialized knowledge

7+ years working hands on with electric vehicle systems and components.

Real diagnostics

Troubleshoot the system instead of blindly replacing expensive components.

Quality work

Repairs are approached carefully and methodically.

Straightforward communication

You'll know what was found and what the repair involves before unnecessary work is performed.

Local service

Garage based service in Placentia, California.

By appointment

Focused one on one service rather than a crowded retail repair counter.

Labor

Straightforward labor

Labor is billed at $75 per hour with a 1 hour minimum. Parts and replacement components are additional.

Most repairs begin with diagnosis. Once the problem is identified, you'll know what is needed before moving forward with additional repair work.

You're paying for diagnostic experience, technical knowledge, and careful workmanship — not just time spent turning a wrench.
