Introduction
If your Haiboxing 18859 is not moving properly, then follow this guide to locate and replace its motor.
Before beginning this guide, make sure that the wheels are not obstructed and the axels are on straight. Either of these being false means they are negatively impacting your wheels functionality. Fix these problems, then test your Haiboxing again. If it is still moving incorrectly, then the motor is likely broken and needs to be replaced.
