I busted the throttle on my Redshift MX. I tried contacting Hirschmann to see if I could buy one from them with no success. I also tried contacting my insurance company to see if they’d help without success. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can get a new throttle. Mine is completely broken.

where are you in "USA"? There are folks around with parts, somewhere, maybe not Alaska.

You have a picture of an MXR in your profile. Not very helpful. What is your bike model and year?

Ah owners coming out of the woodwork since they need parts. Dont worry, help is out there. If your an MX or MXR looks like you need the shortened throttle without the throttle board connector in line with the harness. Once the OP posts this should be straight forward. How is it broken?
FYI - Hirschmann WILL NOT support directly. Small fish big pond.

Looks like they already sold all of those. Listing ended. Hopefully they have some more.

The listing was still active when I posted. They will probably re-list on Monday. But you can also ask if you need one.

Hello does anyone know if you can make a MXR throttle fit on a MXR. The wiring colours are the same. But the power plugs are not the same. Any help?

Where did you get your throttle from? There are roughly three different iterations of the throttle.....

Hello, I have a 2019 EXR that is showing inverted throttle error And it does not reset by train the key on and off. Any ideas?

You need to update your Inverter firmware. Also how long do you wait when you turn on and off the key?

I first saw this fault Yesterday then I tried again today a number of times but the same issue. How might I update my firmware?

Mulitool. There is documented process on the forum which explains what you need to put together. Also try unplugging the throttle and re-installing as there could be a wiring fault. There is some good info in this thread (not the first time): Inverter Throttle Fault

One other thought that came to mind... check the throttle connection for any obvious issues. I somewhat remember a member overseas having a throttle fault that was caused by a bad connection.

Thanks so much for the assistance! I just inspected the six pin connector and after taking it apart and putting it back together it seems to be in perfect condition but same issue with inverted throttle fault!

Can you link me to the thread that describes how to buy the parts and build the test kit?
