I fixed this problem; I pulled the wheel and removed the axle nut and sprayed penetrating lube around the axle and put it back together- problem fixed... I also took the rim apart and sprayed rust preventive on the inside of both wheel halves because water can get in there from washing the dog stuff off the wheels (yeah you know). I wanted to pull the hub and have a look but it must take a puller because tapping on it with a brass hammer did nothing. So make sure the axle nut is tight...Jazzy 1450 but should be the same on others...

Jazzy 300. Tight drive wheel. Clicking naise

It's possible that the clicking noise is being caused by a loose or worn-out component within the left drive wheel of the Jazzy 300 power wheelchair. The tightness of the wheel could also be contributing to the problem.
To diagnose the issue, you may need to inspect the left drive wheel and its components, including the motor, axle, bearings, and any other parts that may be causing the clicking noise. Tightening any loose components or replacing any worn-out parts may help to alleviate the issue.
It's always a good idea to consult with a professional technician or the manufacturer of the Jazzy 300 power wheelchair for specific troubleshooting advice and repair recommendations.

Jazzy 600 powewr chair intermittion operation

The small click noise is the parking brake releasing to allow you to drive. the flashing is called a flash code that will give you an idea of what is wrong. count the amount of lights flashing this would indicate the problem. Post the amount of lights flashing and some could give you the meaning of the code.

What is making creaking squeeking noises in power chair?

hi, that noise can be caused by the seat mount moving slightly within the seat holder, because it 's a tight fitting when it does move slightly , you get the noise...only needs mm amounts of movement, Careful spraying WD40 in the gaps will solve this but take CARE making no electronics or electrics are near...disconnecting one battery will be ideal..

a visual inspection of all of the bolts and nuts should prove peace of mind...

WARNING: You need to tip over the power-chair to carry out the instructions set out below so extreme care is required.

This noise can also be caused by the motor gearbox ,, carefully place your hand on the gearbox as someone powers the chair , can you feel a grinding sensation ? , bear in mind you will get some feeling there of a dragging.

Regards
Rob

Has clicking noise on right pull wheel

Clicking noises from the drive wheel area usually means the gearbox on that side has a minor to a more severe issue. Call the place where you got the chair. I'm glad it's running and it could continue to run even with the clicking noise. It could be something as a loose hub nut on the wheel or something rubbing when you are making a turn.

My batteries in my jazzy select gt power chair are dead.would it be possible to replace them with a car battery.

I would not recommend you to do this. The batteries that are used for this application are a deep cycle battery. A regular battery may get hot and you will just have problems. Get the correct batteries for the unit. They take U1 32Ah 12V batteries.

Jazzy select is swaying side to side when going forward like it has too much play in the joystick

Check your tire inflation and treads to make sure they can grip the floor/ground without slipping. Make sure that any keystock/keylock needed is installed on the axle, sometimes they slip out. Are your batteries fully charged and in good condition? Are you over the weight limit for the power chair?
Is there any noise or vibration coming from the power chair as you operate it? A grinding sound may indicate bad bearings in the caster wheels and cause problems in steering. A chirping sound may indicate a bad motor, they may be losing power and are not able to move the power chair evenly.
If your insurance purchased the power chair for you, they may also cover the repairs; contact them for information.
Good luck!

How do I increase the speed . It seems that it ran faster on the straight and now I don't feel with all the bars lit that the speed is like it used to be. Please tell me what I can do to make sure I will...

How long have you noticed the decrease in speed? Are you charging the batteries regularly? Have you checked your air pressure in your drive tires?
If the batteries are getting old or the power chair has been stored for a while, the batteries may not be taking a full charge. If your speed indicator is showing full like always but the power chair is not responding like it used to, it may be a battery issue.
As you operate the power chair, listen for noise and pay attention to see if there is any vibration, this may indicate a mechanical problem that is causing power drain.
If not, your power chair may still be within normal parameters, just not "new out of the box" anymore. Make sure that you decrease your speed when going up inclines to avoid excess wear on the motors.
Good luck!
