REGEN TUNE
Calibrate regenerative braking strength via the vendor app. **Powered-on procedure** — this is the one brake-service template that omits `power-down-and-photo`, because regen is a motor-controller setting that can only be tuned on a live vehicle. The contaminated-pad and DOT/mineral deviation rules do not apply (no friction surfaces touched).

atom:intake-consult2 steps
01intake-consult/IC.1
Listen to the customer describe the problem, then ask clarifying questions to confirm the symptom, when it happens, and what changed recently
capture“What did the customer report, in their words?”
capture“What clarifying questions did you ask, and how did they answer?”
NOTENOTE
02intake-consult/IC.2
Set expectations before work begins: the scope of the planned work, what is not included, and the likely outcome
capture“What scope and expectations did you set with the customer?”
NOTE
atom:bay-readiness2 steps
03bay-readiness/BR.1
Clear and stage the work area: bench clear, vehicle secured on the stand, fire-safe location for any battery work
capture“Work area clear and the vehicle secured?”
capture“Photograph the staged work area.”
PASS / FAILPHOTO
04bay-readiness/BR.2
Select and stage the correct tools for the planned job, and put on the PPE the work requires (gloves, eye protection)
capture“Correct tools staged for this job?”
capture“PPE on for the work being done?”
PASS / FAILPASS / FAIL
atom:regen-tune3 steps
05regen-tune/RG.1
Power on the vehicle and pair the vendor app over BLE / cable; confirm the app reads the current regen setting
capture“Vehicle powered; vendor app paired; current regen value readable?”
PASS / FAIL
warningRegen tuning runs on a POWERED vehicle — this is the one brake atom where universal power-off doctrine doesn't apply

E-SCOOTERescooter
RG.esc.1On the dashboard or vendor app, locate regen-strength selector (typically 1–3 levels: low/medium/high); set and confirm via test ride
capture“Regen level set; confirmed via test ride?”
DECISION · 3
E-BIKEebike
RG.eb.1On the display or vendor app, locate regen control (often labelled 'regen strength' or 'engine brake'); set and confirm
capture“Regen strength set; confirmed via test ride?”
DECISION · 4
E-SKATEeskate
RG.es.1E-skate regen: most hub-motor boards expose a brake-strength setting in the OEM remote firmware (Boosted, Backfire, Meepo) — pair the remote, set brake mode, and confirm via low-speed pullback
capture“Remote paired; brake mode set; pullback confirmed?”
DECISION · 4
infoBelt-drive boards typically have no regen — confirm board type before touching settings
E-MOTOemoto
RG.em.1Sur-Ron / Talaria — controller display has a regen toggle (some models off-only). Confirm vendor-spec procedure; not all e-motos support adjustable regen
capture“Regen tuneable on this e-moto?”
DECISION · 2
infoMany e-motos have fixed regen — if no adjustment exists, document the OEM-fixed value and exit
07regen-tune/RG.3
Power-cycle the vehicle; on power-up, confirm regen behaves as set during a low-speed roll-and-release test
capture“Post-power-cycle regen matches the tuned value?”
PASS / FAIL
atom:findings-handoff3 steps
08findings-handoff/FH.1
Explain the findings and the work done in plain language, without jargon, and confirm the customer understands
capture“How did you explain the findings and work to the customer?”
NOTE
09findings-handoff/FH.2
Communicate any battery findings verbally: state of health, charging guidance, and safety notes, and confirm they were understood
capture“What battery findings did you communicate, and how did the customer respond?”
NOTE
10findings-handoff/FH.3
Communicate any drive-system findings verbally: motor, controller, or sensor behavior observed during service
capture“What drive-system findings did you communicate to the customer?”
