Could be throttle control not in centre position on switch on. check the throttle control or wig-wag is not loose.

This is a speed pot or throttle control problem (wig-wag) have you had some speed issues with the scooter before this happened, if so the wig-wag needs replacing. Make sure it is in the centre position at rest and switch the scooter on again.

hi, sorry to hear you having issues with the go go

Here's the manual

http://www.pride-mobility.co.uk/docs/Elite%20Traveller_owners%20manual.pdf

The fault description is :

Throttle control lever not at centre position
at start up.
Return the throttle control lever to centre
position, turn Travel Scooter off then back on

so what happened is that the throttle is no longer centre , look at the base of the throttle stem, a cross head , now that should look straight at the the seat stem, be in aligh with it, if's it off slight you will get that fault so you need to adjust the lever so the pot is dead centre again..

Still having a problem then goto my site and contact me so we can solve this for you free of charge..

The Legend 4 wheel XL scooter has a S drive controller. This is an assumption based on the model described. I would have to run the serial number to be certain. With the S drive controller a beep code of 6 indicates a bad throttle potentiometer or a throttle potentiometer which is out of neutral on start up. You can test for this by turning off the scooter and attempting to try various neutral positions of the pot, and turning the scooter on with your other hand while maintaining this neutral position. This usually works by trial and error.
The more technical way is to remove the front console covers and inspect the pot mechanism visually checking the spring and movement and electronically using a digital volt meter.
If you do indeed have a code for the charger plugged in (and of course it is not), then you have a bad charger. These chargers are notorious for going into drive inhibit when they burn out and the computer will give a code of charger plugged in. To test for this, you need to remove the cover to get to the charger and unplug the charger on the output side. If the scooter runs you have a bad charger that is stuck in drive inhibit (electronically equivalent to the scooter being plugged into an AC wall outlet). Hope this helps.

probably a dead battery or a bad battery will move you till the controller gets to a threshold voltage then it beeps and stops , testing this is easy turn on the scooter adjust the speed control to the lowest setting then start riding the scooter at full throttle then start turning up the speed controller if that produces the problem then the batteries need charged or replaced
