Check the charger output to verify whether or not you have a bad charger using a voltmeter. These smaller batteries are notorious for having a short shelf life and poor quality control from the manufacturer. Load test the batteries after you verify you have a working charger that will bring the batteries up to the proper voltage first.

Jazzy select gt. batteries are good charger is new when charging the lights go from red to green and repeats, but if i hold the button one red one yellow ? i tested the batteries they are full but joy...

Still your batteries are bad. Had this problem before. If the batteries are more than 1 to 2 years old they need to be replaced. The charger only tells you it can't charge anymore, because the battery is sulfated. The meter on the chair is telling you the batteries are not strong enough to run the chair.

Power light is on the charger but no movement from the jazzy select chair

You have to disconnect the charger in order for the chair to move. It automatically removes power from the controller while the batteries charge.

Yep you have a weak or bad battery. Even tho the chair looks new if they didn't take care of the batteries ie: charge regularly then the batteries went bad just sitting. I would check in your area for a battery warehouse or store that can get you 2 new batteries at a reasonable price. If there is an Interstate battery distributor or store near you the get your batteries there. Your Select uses 2 U1 batteries. Check out my tips on charging your batteries once you have the new ones put in. Hope this helps

When charging my jazzy, do I unplug any plugs that controls my jazzy, or leave all plugged in? the reaon ask, green light will not come on the charger, which is onboard charger, unless I unplug controller...

No JJR all the plugs need to remain plugged in. On the Pride chairs the light on the charger will only come on green when the batteries are fully charged. When you unplug the controller the charger thinks the batteries are fully charged and the light comes on. Now the problem is the batteries. If they are old or you have a bad battery then the charger never senses a full charge so no green light. Hope this helps
