Top 20 Pride Mobility Products Jazzy 1170 XL Plus Questions & Answers

Just wrap your wrist with an Ace bandage. LOL

Hi Rob....I had the same problem with my 1170. Your problem is probably worn motor brushes. Replacing the brushes will most likely fix your problem.

Locking/Unlocking the VSI The VSI has a feature that enables you to lock your power chair to prevent unauthorized use. To lock the VSI: 1. With the VSI switched on, press and hold the on/off key. After 1 second, the VSI should beep. 2. Release the on/off key. 3. Push the joystick to the full forward position until the VSI beeps. 4. Pull the joystick to the full rearward position until the VSI beeps. 5. Release the joystick. There should be a long beep. 6. The VSI is now locked. To unlock the VSI: 1. Press the on/off key and power on the VSI. The maximum speed/profile indicator should ripple up and down. 2. Push the joystick to the full forward position until the VSI beeps. 3. Pull the joystick to the full rearward position until the VSI beeps. 4. Release the joystick. There should be a long beep. 5. The VSI is now unlocked.

Have you tried releasing the brake level? Should be located on the lower right side. I hope this helps.

if i remember correctly there should be a single nut holding that tire on,use a rubber hammer and hit drive shaft and pull on tire at same time with other hand,it should move out far enough to get a large wrench behind the tire and push toward chair untill tire comes off

Batteries are shot. Charger will not turn on when batteries are bad. Replace batteries.

that fuse is located on a battery post cable,they are very exspensive for just a fuse but u will need to go to a hardware store and hope they have them or napa,oreily any auto motive parts store ok,those are special fuses

shouldnt even move with charger plugged in sounds like a controller problem or joystick have a tech fro dealer check the error log they can tell u what is wrong from that

Code 9: brake fault. Check motor connections and make sure that the levers are in the engaged position - if you can roll the chair the gearbox is not engaged.

Should use proper 24 volt 2-4 amp off-board charger. A 3 red, 3 green flash code on a VSI/Remote Plus controller indicates high battery voltage.

Go to:http://www.pridemobility.com/resourcecenter/Downloads/Product_Owners_Manuals/product_owners_manuals.aspAnd choose your model.

Code 7: joystick problem. Be sure joystick is in center position when you power up. If rubber boot is worn out, replace it or repair it so that stick is in center position. Always check connections.

loose connections on power side of harness, computer reads this as low batteries sometimes

The 2 flashing red lights indicate a low battery. Did you have the batteries replaced? and did you have the charger checked? The charger could not be giving you a full charge or you didn't charge the batteries correctly. It takes about 9-10 charges to bring the batteries to 100% operating capacity. Always charge the batteries before using after installing new ones and then charge nightly when you sleep. When you get up in the morning the batteries should be fully charged and last all day. Never charge more than 12 hours and always store or put up fully charged Hope this helps and sorry that no one can seem to help you except spend your money needlessly

According to my 1170 manual the flashing lights are error codes. 1 red = low batt., 2 red = left motor disconnected, 3 red = Left motor wiring fault, 4 yellow = Right motor disconnected, 5 yellow = right motor wiring fault, 6 yellow = Inhibit active, 7 yellow =possible joystick fault, 8 green = possible controller fault, 9 green = Solenoid brake fault, 10 green = high batt. voltage

Mark,

The manufacturer parts manual indicates the following information:

The motor brush caps are available from Pride:
PLSINDV1059 Motor brush cap (Reliance 0003-0035) retail $2.68
The brushes are:
DRVBRSH1000 Motor brush Jazzy (Reliance 0002-6957) retail $36.31

The guys in tech service at Pride (800-800-8586) are always a good resource for the information you may need. If you are exceptionally nice to them they will drop a new brush cap in the mail for you for free.
You can also check with Reliance Motors at their website for information and cross reference for other brushes available based on the Reliance part numbers above.
A good local motor rebuild shop can recommend a comparable (more durable) brush based on the specs. I think you may be disappointed with the pricing of the more durable brushes.

Hope this helps.

I think you might have a joystick fault but first make sure that the chair is not in freewheel. If the chair is not in freewheel then you have a joystick problem and it will have to be replaced Hope this helps

low batteries might need replacing if you charged it and you are still getting one blinking ligght also check the charger Hope this helps
