If you are storing it over winter. I would charge the batteries and disconnect them. Check them periodically and charge once a month until the warm stuff comes around. It can sometimes be better to take the batteries indoors as extreme cold or heat can adversely affect your battery life and performance. If you intend to use it through winter, just keep it dry, warm (if possible) and lengthen your normal charging regime (around 10-14 hours overnight should do it) You can get any number of waterproof dashboard covers and things that keep moisture out of the sensitive parts. It is also worth getting a full lubrication and service from a reputable local dealer.

Thanks Dave

How do I get the power scooter battery to charge when I didn&#39;t charge and used it in a year in a half.

Probably needs replacing. If a battery is left run down for very long it dies and needs replacing. I charge my lawn tractor about three times over the winter.

Getting an error code of flashing 9 times then pause then flashing

Pride Mobility Products Corp Product Owners Manuals Specification Sheets Click on "Celebrity X"

9-flash usually indicates a blown controller. The larger pride scooters are known for blowing controllers and having melt-downs when they are pushed or towed too fast. EVEN WITH THE KEY OFF the controller still monitors the safety systems. If the system detects a "roll-away" situation, the controllers turn on and go into dynamic braking mode in attempt to slow or stop the scooter. If the scooter is being towed or pushed and this happens, the scooter tries to stop the motion, overheats and burns up. Catastrophic failure and 9-flashes will result.

Charging batteries

Hi, you really need to keep those batteries above 10c, minus 30 will freeze the contents, the battery will need to be thawed out before use* ( *Electric mobility advice). You will need to have a heated blanket that can safely be used outdoors otherwise you will always have problems with the batteries... Sorry but the cold kills batteries or battery power very quickly because they cannot transfer charge well.

My wife has an Invacare Auriga, it was not charged over winter, therefore batteries went flat. I bought 2 new batteries and fitted them, but when I switch the key on, the left hand light on the dash panel...

Check that you are not in freewheel. If you can push the scooter easily and the rear wheels roll then you are in freewheel. Move the lever to drive postion and turn the scooter on to see if that fixed the problem Hope this helps

Kymco midi foru,less than 6 months old batteries will not charge.

This will be due to the batteries being left uncharged for a long period of time. Should ideally be charged once a fortnight for at least 12 hours if the scooter is not used for any period of time. Unfortunately, the only real solution is new batteries.
