My go go elite traveller won't start

SOURCE: Wheels- knocking noise in the right wheel

Hi. If the knocking noise happens with each revolution of the wheel, it is probably the square key in the axle that drives the wheel. Remoce the wheel and wipe a light smear of grease on the axle and key where it fits inside the wheel. As the wheel normally rotates, the weight comes on to the key and off again, causing the noise. The grease allows it to move without making the noise. Sometimes also caused by a stone in the tread, but most likely to be a dry key.Good luck. Neil.

SOURCE: I turn the key on get 10 fast beeps on my GO GO

The Pride Go Go Elite Traveller Plus HD 4 Wheel scooter problem you are describing with 10 fast beeps is that the scooter has "exceeded the push or roll away speed limit" (the scooter service manual is written by an engineer). The second symptom you describe is that you could get the scooter to drive by turning it off and on. By resetting the controller you were able to get the scooter to work for awhile.
This scooter has either an S drive controller or R series controller which has gone bad. By running the serial number you can call the manufacturer and identify which type. The part runs about $500 retail. It may be covered under warranty so it is advisable to call the manufacturer and run the SN first. Pride Mobility Products is at 1 800 800 8586. They can direct you to a local dealer for warranty repair.
While under the rear electronics shroud cover inspecting the controller check for burnt or melted wiring harnesses and connectors and replace those also. The rear cover has velcro attached inserts and well hidden screws that need to be removed first. An experienced tech can do the work in under an hour or you can save some money by doing the repair yourself. If I remember correctly all you need is 2 different size screwdrivers and an open end wrench for the nuts (all metric hardware).
Hope this helps.

SOURCE: when I turn the key on it beeps 10 times and then

This is the second post to answer the same question. The beep code will begin with 10 very fast beeps, followed by 5 slower beeps. The 5 slower beeps is your actual code. The beep code 5 is a brake fault.
The scooter may be in freewheel mode or there may be a short in the brake.
Make sure the scooter is in drive mode with the rear brake lever in the correct position. If that does not clear the fault you need to check the electromagnetic brake.
To check the brake you need a digital voltmeter. The brake should read 30 to 65 ohms when you read across the pins. You need to measure the resistance at each successive point on the harness because there are 5 connectors. While you are inspecting these plugs, check for corrosion, loose pins, broken wires, and pins not making good contact. Disassemble the front and rear halves of the scooter when you do this.
If all the resistance checks are good up to the controller plug for the brake, you have a bad controller. With that being said, I usually see a bad connection at the multiple points in-between. Sometimes the wires for the brake will melt at the connector at the controller.
Inspect these areas visually, removing the rear cover of the brake/motor/transaxle and the controller. An experienced tech should charge you under 1 hour labor for the diagnosis. You may be able to save some money by checking the obvious areas for unplugged or bad connections first.
The brake will cost about $250, the interface wiring and connectors about $50 and the controller is about $500. For this reason, you should invest in a good tech to diagnose the problem first, before proceeding with any hit and miss do it yourself repairs.
Including a second visit to install the new parts, labor cost should not exceed 2 hours total.
This is a very popular model so you should be able to find an experienced tech in your area. Hope this helps.
