Mr.Ross,Since you noticed that your alternator do not charge the battery,the only thing you must do is to take the vehicle to your electrician for repair,or renew the alternator,because is not correct and mechanical recommended to keep on the old one on running because not only drain the battery but also damage the Electronic control Unit of the vehicle,not correct working because will loose the power capacity for all the sensors fitted on the vehicle and engine. Go to the specialist the soonest the better
Things to check: Drive/Free wheeling switch, brake release lever (this activates an internal micro-switch that enable power to the drive system, battery box connectors (condition of contacts - corroded, missing, loose. etc.); main control cable (corrosion. lose or missing pins, etc). If all these are OK, could be controller or drive control potentiometers (speed, forward, backward) on the handle-bar (tiller). Good luck!
* Circuit breaker on main control box is tripped * Fuse blown (check fuse in main control box assembly). * Incorrect polarity at battery terminals * Dead batteries. * Charging cable is still connected to charging receptacle * One of the cable connections at the main control box is loose. * Control connection cable disconnected * Broken key switch * Throttle stuck fully open * Throttle control potentiometer broken. * Speed potentiometer broken * Battery voltage too low. * Faulty charging cable. * Charger not working. * Charging circuitry in main control box assembly not working
If these check OK, the problem is likely to in the control connection cable or upper control box Verify that the upper control box is getting 24V. (Blue wire on red connector.)
* If the upper control box is not getting 24V, replace control connection cable
* If the upper control box is getting 24V, check key switch operation and verify wiring in the upper control box. Trace voltage from keyswitch on to find where the problem occurs. (Replace upper control box if necessary.)
* Charge batteries with a 12V charger or replace if necessary.
* Ohm test the charging cable - replace if necessary.
* Test scooter with a different charger, if new charger works, replace charger.
* Check wiring in main control box assembly - replace in line relay if necessary * If batteries, charger, and all wiring is good, replace controller PCB. (Note the model number for the PCB, for example 1208-2330.)
Ross I'm a little confused by your problem what charged light? Do you mean the battery level lights are all lit and it won't move. Or is the charger light on the charger and it won't move?
If you have charged the scooter and the battery lights show full charge then check to make sure that you are not in freewheel. If you are not in freewheel then the problem could be the throttlepot or speed control pot or the cable running to the rear from the console. It is difficult to tell you exactly what the problem is because it could be one or multiple problems. I suggest you contact your provider (where you got the scooter) and see if they can check it for you. Now if Medicare purchased your scooter for you you can call a service company to get it repaired. Repair Xpress @ 1-877-581-3733 or Roadrunner Mobility @ 1-800-467-2668 hope this helps Sorry I couldn't give you a definite fix
FIRST, make sure you have the charger recommended by Garmin. I made the mistake buying a cheap brand and it didn't work. That was a waste! Next:

There are three ways to charge the internal battery in your automotive GPS
unit.1
Use the provided vehicle
power cable that came with your GPS unit. The unit will charge while
powered on and using the device as well as when the GPS unit is powered
off and plugged into a running vehicle. About 3 hrs for a full charge. If the unit will not charge
in the vehicle, check the fuse in the power cable for the unit and
the power outlet in the vehicle.
Use an AC power
adaptor. Some units come with this power cable to plug the GPS unit
into a wall outlet allowing the GPS unit to take a charge. For units
that do not come with this cable, one can be purchased from Garmin's online store.
For most units, the final way
of charging the battery is to plug the GPS into a powered on computer with
a USB cable2. This
method of charging will be a trickle charge and it may take longer (like a
full day) than the other two options, however it will still charge the
battery. A USB cable is provided with a few GPS models. For those
that don't come with this cable, one can either be ordered from the online
store or you can use a standard USB to mini-USB cable that fits the
unit and plugs into your computer.

1 - Please note
that temperature can play an effect on the charging of a device. If the battery
registers a temperature of 0°C and below or 45°C and above (32°F and 113°F
respectively) then it will not charge. When connected to external power it will
only be operating off of external power. 2 - The Quest® and Quest® 2 will not charge using a
USB cable.
