Pride Mobility Victory 3 Wheel Electric Scooter - Answered Questions & Fixed issues
Motor draws too much current
The motor has 2 brushes under a circular cap on the sides of the motor. When they wear down, they can use more current. Look there first. Then move on to the brake unit that is connected to the motor. If it doesn't release completely then excessive current will be drawn to move the scooter.
Having problems starting my scooter
I have the same prob ! Try thses, I have cleaned the carb, ive checked for a spark (yes), cleaned fuel tank and checked to see if it is getting fuel and it is, also reset the air/fuel screw 1 and a half turns to factory reset NOTHING :( and took spark plug out and put my thumb over the hole pulled the pull start and it feels like it has pressure.
Oh and yes I did put 2 stroke oil in the fuel !

check your charger - or your battery or both - my thought is the charging unit failed and is not charging to full battery
Air preassure in victory scooter
Most electric mobility scooters with inflatable tires require a tire pressure of 30-35 psi (be sure to check the manual of your scooter for the correct tire pressure). Do not allow the tires to become under-inflated or over-inflated. Under-inflated tires could make the scooter unstable and over-inflated tires can burst under pressure. Also, you should manually inspect the tires periodically to make sure they haven't taken any serious damage that could lead to a flat.
Squeeking
That is strange because both rear wheels as they are connected directly to the trans-axle.I would block up the rear of the scooter so the rear wheels are off the floor, run the scooter,does it still squeak. If it does still squeak its probably the braking mechanism or the freewheel mechanism. I use allot of silicon spray in this area. I use my scooter outside allot, moisture gets into this area and can cause problems. I use pure silicon spray. WARNING; do not use WD-40, it will dissolve some plastics. Also wd40 gets sticky after awhile. Pure silicon spray wont harm anything and is EXCELLENT lubricant. Most scooters trans-axles are hard mounted to the frame, they have no suspension, maybe yours does have some sort of suspension, If it does spray all the joints with silicon. Hope this helps
