Segway i167 - top of handlebar disassembling

ALexey · 01-06-2010, 12:09 PM

Hi guys!
I hope somebody can help with my problem.
My friend have broken left grip on handlebar of i167. That one with steering controls. He ordered used handlebar from Ebay and installed it. But i167 still doesn't work. Then he asked me to help with it.
After some studiyng i found that electronics in 'new' handlebar is dead. Maybe previous owner put it underwater or under heavy rain. There are much remains of humidity.

So here is the situation:
1. 'old' handlebar with broken grip and working electronics.
2. 'new' handlebar that is in good state mechanically but with not working electronics.
3. A great wish to make all this stuff work and to do it myself

My idea is to 'transplant' circuit board from 'old' handlebar to 'new'. But there are not any screws nor nuts.

Is there any means to disassemble top of handlebar (that thing with indicator and port for keys) without breacking it?

Thanks for advance and sorry if my English is not perfect.

The only silly questions are unasked questions.

The left hand side seems to be the side that breaks.
Did you recover the 2 small magnets from the steering grip ?
Did you re-install and orient those properly ?
There are 3 wrong ways and only 1 right way to install 2 polarised magnets.
