SOURCE: When turning the scooter on the system goes by

Sounds like the throttle mech has come loose, the lever is normally fixed to a pot with a long stem now if that's moved round it will power it self without any movement?

SOURCE: Same problem

If your batteries have ever gone dead, they can show fully charged, then completly discharge very rapidly. Take them to autozone and ask for a "load test". If they don't hold a load, replacement is nessary. [email protected] for more if the batteries pass load test

Testimonial: "It was the batteries - they needed replacement. Thanks to all who responded!"

My golden companion 2 Gc 321 goes forward when i push reverse and goes reverse when i push forward

It sounds to me like someone has gotten inside & tampered with it, Cameron. Maybe they twisted the drive belt 180 degrees or something? Or rewired the motor backwards?

Sounds like the motor cables are in reverse at the controller. Check that the red is in the positive and the black wire is in the negative on the controller.

Scooter won't move when forward/reverse engaged.

From:

http://mobility123.com/help-fix-mobility-scooter-powerchair/


Engage the freewheel lever
- allows you to operate the mobility equipment with the standard controls.
Disengage the freewheel lever - This unlocks the unit and allows the wheels to spin freely. You can easy push the equipment without power. This is especially helpful if you run out of battery power and need assistance.

Why does my scooter stick in reverse when i push forward & stop when i push reverse

Hi, it could be that the throttle has turned around within the throttle lever therefore no longer centre, look under the throttle stem, you should see a cross head now that should be in align with you when sitting on the scooter...you will need to loosen the throttle and realign if that is the case...

Is it possible to reverse the drive lever on the invacare lynx scooter as my dad only has use of left arm. At the moment he has to push lever towards him very awkwardly. It would be much easier to simply...

Hi Mark.

Reversing the polarity:There are 3 wires on the Wig Wag Assembly. (reverse the wig-wag function) simply de-solder the 2 outer wires & swap their position & re-solder.I would seek a price for doing the job from an approved scooter repairer,unless you are comfortable doing the job yourself.I hope this has helped,Colin

Hi my days strider midi4 keeps going in reverse for about 4 seconds after you take the throttle off

spares sounds like the throttle pot is not being centered upon release making the scooter move in reverse or forward depending on which way it is off center. try pushing on the thottle lever slowly forward when you stop to see if that stops the creeping. Then you can try to adjust the pot by loosening the lever and retightening it in the forward direction that stops the creeping. You might have to order a new throttle pot assembly to get this working right. Hope this helps
