Behind the drive wheels is a selenoid that has a flip up for "PUSH" and flip down for "DRIVE", make sure they are both in "DRIVE". That's what worked for me.

SOURCE: Merits DL 52 i electric wheel chair, all leds flash 3 times.

The number of lights that are blinking indicate what the problem is. Visit this site to locate the type on controller on your power chair and you will be able to see that the blinking lights mean:

Try to reset your manual brake release as this is a common problem.
If you continue to have a problem, contact your manufacturer or dealer for service. If your insurance purchased they power chair for you, they may also cover the cost of repairs.
Good luck!

Hope you have had this fixed by now. But in case not and you are not able to use the chair.
If the chair still drives it's not batteries. The toggle switch box should be ok if there is no visable damage to it. Bad connections of the wiring from the toggle switch box to power or the recline or tilt motor should be inspected. A electronic tech is needed for most electronic failures.

I have the tdx sp and the wrench light is flashing 7 times what does this mean?

There is a problem with the remote joystick. Could be a bad connection or bad harness to the remote joystick. If harness is fine then the joystick has issues and needs to be replaced or rebuilt.
Try the 4-wire harness first.

The power funtion drive on my Invacare Storm TDX 5 wheelchair, which operates the tilt, recline, elevating leg rest and seat elevator has stopped working. The drive switch as it appears on the LED screen...

1) Yes your power seat functions can be programed into your drive 4,You'll need a programmer or have to take it into a shop.
2) yes the chair can be manually elevated down,You'll want to take it to a shop for that ,because it requires jumping the power to the seat elevator and swapping the wires around and I would never recommend my customers to do such a thing because of electric shock or burning up the chair.

If your chair has a four wat toggle switch("what controls your power seat functions elev,recl,telt,ext) If thats what your using right now there may be a red light that comes on in drive lock out ,If that light is not on follow that wire all the way down it may have been pinched or cut.If so it will need to be replaced.


Problems like this one is hard to trouble shoot over text or phone ,if your four way switch cord is cut or smashed .Your gunna have to take it into a shop just to make sure ,It didnt cause any electrical problems in your chair .

Good luck hope i had the chair in front of me so i could help you more.

Lights flashing

If your chair is in freewheel (levers on back of motors not in drive) then the light will flash. But are the lights scrolling left to right or right to left? You can check for freewheeling by trying to push the chair from behind if it moves easily then it is in freewheel and you will have to move the levers to the drive position. You need to give more info of the flashing lights are all the lights flashing are only some flashing? etc

Stability locking kit

The M51 does not have a stability locking kit. The Invacare TDX SP has a gas strut stability locking kit that just had an extensive recall campaign associated with it. Please describe your issue in greater detail.

One red light three green flash when turned on

Your chair has a motor problem. The code does not tell which side it is. Make sure both motors have the brakes in the drive position before turning on the chair. Also check that both motors are plugged into the main control module in the base of the chair.
