First ensure the battery is completely discharged by using a voltmeter or other suitable method.

If the battery really is dead it should be charged with a suitable known good battery charger for the required time, allowed to stand a few hours and then tested by putting it into use or employing a suitable method of testing.

All disability scooters and electric wheelchairs arrive with a dedicated battery charger which should be used if possible, though these sometimes fail and need replacing. In that case other methods of charging can be employed but purely on a temporary basis as there are safety concerns with battery charging.

If charging the battery does not work, it might need replacing and/or there might be a fault with the wheelchair.

Where is the breaker switch of my quantum power wheelchair?

However, in most power wheelchairs, including quantum power wheelchairs, the breaker switch is typically located on the main control panel or near the battery pack.
Here are a few steps you can follow to locate the breaker switch in your quantum power wheelchair:
  1. Start by examining the control panel of your wheelchair. Look for any switches, buttons, or indicators that are labeled as "power," "on/off," or "reset."
  2. If you don't find any obvious switches on the control panel, check the area near the battery pack. The battery pack is usually located at the back of the wheelchair, underneath the seat. Look for a switch or lever that can be toggled to turn the power on or off.
  3. In some cases, the breaker switch may be integrated into the power cord or cable connecting the wheelchair to the electrical outlet. Inspect the power cord and check if there is a switch or button along its length.
  4. If you're unable to locate the breaker switch on your own, consult the user manual or contact the manufacturer of your quantum power wheelchair. They should be able to provide you with specific instructions on finding the breaker switch.
Remember to exercise caution when working with any electrical components and refer to the manufacturer's instructions or seek assistance if needed to ensure your safety and the proper functioning of your power wheelchair.

My power wheelchair Quantum 4Front power footrest is not working. Stuck in an upright position. I think a connection is loose somewhere.

If your Quantum 4Front power wheelchair's leg rest function is not working and stuck in an upright position, it is possible that there is a loose connection somewhere. Here are some troubleshooting steps you can try:
1. Check the power supply: Ensure that the power wheelchair is properly connected to a power source and that the battery is fully charged. A low battery can sometimes cause issues with the leg rest function.
2. Inspect the wiring: Carefully examine the wiring and connections for any signs of damage or loose connections. Look for any disconnected or frayed wires that may be causing the issue. If you find any, try reconnecting or repairing them as necessary.
3. Reset the wheelchair: Some power wheelchairs have a reset button or a sequence of buttons that can be pressed to reset the system. Refer to the user manual or contact the manufacturer for specific instructions on how to perform a reset for your Quantum 4Front power wheelchair.
4. Contact customer support: If none of the above steps work, it is best to reach out to Quantum Rehab customer support for further assistance. They will be able to provide specific troubleshooting steps or guide you on how to get the leg rest function repaired or replaced if necessary.
Remember to refer to the user manual or contact Quantum Rehab customer support for specific instructions related to your model of power wheelchair.

Where are the Quantum 600 Fuses Located?

Ron,
With a gifted power wheelchair, the usual culprit is a pair of dead batteries usually size 22NF deep cycle batteries. The pediatric chair may have U-1 (35 amp hour batteries) There are fusible links connected to both batteries at the + terminal. There are additional fuses under the rear cover in booted holders in the belly area in the rear near the controller. These power take off harnesses are fused but probably do not relate to your primary dead battery problem. Remove the front cover of the base and pull out the battery tray. Remove the batteries, test, and replace.
The owner's manual can be found here. It also includes basic service. Hope this helps.

Error code 80 and then 138 quantum edge w/c

Low voltage. Check the batteries and connections to the power module and joy stick. Make sure no loose connections are present.
If problem still persist, then maybe new batteries are needed.

Battery charger on quantum electric wheelchair starts out ember color then starts flashing red I check wires everything is plugged check it about 3 months ago everything was ok now th chair won't

Did you charge it at all during the 3 months? Did you store chair on a full charge? Check to see if batteries are dead. Batteries should be disconnected and/or stored on a full charge. If left connected they should be fully charge every week.

Quantum Battery 1

You would need to buy this: http://www.amazon.com/Battery-replacement-QB24-QB26-QUANTUM/dp/B002BJZ2XI

Just remove the old rechargeable batteries (3) out and install the new one in. That battery is mostly dead. iphoto27atyahoodotcom was able to replaced it and got it working.
