Decide if this is mechanical (tire, brake, noise) or electrical (won’t power, won’t charge, cuts out).
If it’s electrical, assume a diagnostic cost unless you can test safely with a multimeter.
If using a shop, estimate parts plus 1–2 hours labor. If it nears half the scooter’s value, consider replacing.
