Tao Motor Champ Controller ID Guide

1. Locate the controller

The controller on the Tao Motor Champ is accessed from the rear of the vehicle and is mounted on the underside, just forward of the rear axle. It has a black plastic protective cover over it, You will notice the power leads from the motor going into the housing.

 

2. Access the controller

To access the controller the cover will need to be removed. It is held on with 2 screws along the bottom and 3 plastic push rivets across the top. You will need a 3/16" allen wrench to remove the screws, the push rivets on the top can be removed by just pulling straight back on the housing to separate it from the controller mounting plate.

 

3. Observe & Identify The Controller

With the cover removed you can see the controller pretty easily. The controller in this model vehicle (2024) is the FJ 350A. You can see the green FJ logo in the corner of the controller. While you have the cover off it is not a bad idea to take a photo of the white square sticker with all the controller information. Once you have verified the controller you can close the cover back up.

 

4. Locate & Identify Programming Port

To locate and access the programming port you need to lift the seat to the battery bay, from the drivers side of the vehicle you will see the fuse block, there is a small opening forward of the fuse block if you look down there with a flash light you will see 2 or 3 different cables. Its pretty tight in there to access. YOU MAY NEED TO REMOVE 1 OR BOTH BATTERIES ON THE DRIVERS SIDE TO MOVE THE CONNECTOR TO A SPOT WHERE YOU CAN ACCESS IT.

 

5. Locate Programming Port
