Have an Aspire Quicky chair, power light bar on arm rest shows all orange, chair barely moves, batteries have been plugged into wall socket for most of a year, how do test for bad batteries or bad controler, thank you [email protected]

Whenever you need to charge your power chair or scooter get into the habit of charging overnight. The battery level indicator lights will tell you if your chair or scooter needs charging. Whenever the lights are down into the yellow and especially if they are in the red. If you have the off-board charger, plug the charger into the charger port in the front of your joystick and then plug the charger into the wall socket or turn the on/off switch on and let it charge overnight. When you get up in the morning the charger should have a red light(power) and a green light illuminated (indicating fully charged) Always turn the charger off or unplug it from the wall socket before you unplug it from the chair or scooter. Never have the power on to the charger when you plug or unplug it from your chair or scooter. Whenever you get new batteries always give your batteries a full charge before use and then if you use the chair daily charge it every night. If you do not use your chair or scooter daily charge it at least once a week. Never leave the charger plugged in and on for more than 24 hours. Your batteries should last you 3-4 years if you charge them correctly.

If you are having problems with a power chair, mobility scooter or lift chair Give as much information as you can. Did Medicare pay for the mobility product? How old is the product? How old are the batteries? When you are getting flashing lights on the battery level indicator or light on scooter console. Count the number of flashes ie: 4 flashes pause 4 flashes pause etc. If the lights are scrolling are they moving right to left or left to right? As much info as you can give will help in telling what problem you are having and easier to help if possible.

In problems with lift chairs does to chair go up but not down? Will the chair move up or down at all? Do you have a red light visible on your transformer that is plugged into the wall socket?

Thanks
