Throttles that have red, green, and yellow wires are designed as follows:
Red = +5V Input
Yellow = Ground
Green = 1-4V Output
The reason that most throttles stop working is because of something physical instead of electrical, such as a magnet that has come unglued inside of it, or a broken wire inside the cable, or a loose connection between the wires and sensor inside of the throttle. Sometime the Hall-effect sensor inside of the throttle will fail also, however that is less common.

Regarding the Zappy Pro Flex scooter, if the throttle has + 5 Volts going into it, good ground, and no output Voltage then the throttle has failed. The failure could be from a factory defect, or from a short inside of the controller which is feeding positive Voltage or ground to the throttle intermittently, like when going over a bump when riding.
I would take a look inside of the controller to make sure there is nothing there out of place, and if everything looks good inside of the controller then I would replace the throttle and try again.
