Code 9: brake fault. Check motor connections and make sure that the levers are in the engaged position - if you can roll the chair the gearbox is not engaged.
Your version has a Dynamic Controls model controller and joystick. Unplug the charger and engage the motor/brake lever so the chair is no longer in free-wheel mode (con't push by hand) Turn the chair off, wait 5 seconds, turn the chair back. If chair still does not run and your wrench is flashing you have a problem. Count the wrench flashes - the flash count indicates the error detected. 3, 4, 5, and 6 flashes indicate and error with the motors. 3=Left motor fault 4=Right motor fault 5=Left brake fault (may not be engaged) 6=Right brake fault (may not be engaged) Any other fault code usually means the electronics or wiring is bad and not worth fixing.
The jazzy probably has a VSI controller and if it is sleep mode then the lights will scroll rather than blink. Now turn on the chair and see if the blinks have a pause between them, ie 4 blinks pause 4 blinks pause etc If they do count the number of blinks and this will give you the error code ie 4 blinks right motor 3 blinks left motor your owners manual should have a chart listing the error codes If not you can contact Pride tech support @ 1-800-800-8586 ask for jazzy tech support
According to my 1170 manual the flashing lights are error codes. 1 red = low batt., 2 red = left motor disconnected, 3 red = Left motor wiring fault, 4 yellow = Right motor disconnected, 5 yellow = right motor wiring fault, 6 yellow = Inhibit active, 7 yellow =possible joystick fault, 8 green = possible controller fault, 9 green = Solenoid brake fault, 10 green = high batt. voltage
I think you might have a joystick fault but first make sure that the chair is not in freewheel. If the chair is not in freewheel then you have a joystick problem and it will have to be replaced Hope this helps
Hi. Why do you have two different sized batteries? When you charge them, they will not charge up evenly. You say it ran for two days, did you charge it each night or after the two days running? Batteries last the best if they are charged overnight after each days running. The two flashing lights might be a fault code. Can you tell us what controller is in the machine, we can look up the fault codes. Why was the left hand motor rebuilt? In power chairs and mobility scooters the motors develope a build up of carbon dust and copper bust from the brushes and commutator. This build-up causes a leakage of power from the wiring in the motor to the frame of the motor. If this happens it is possible to get a short developing between the two motors, which causes the controller to go into a fault mode.Good luck. Neil.
The number of lights that are blinking indicate what the problem is.
Visit this site to locate the type on controller on your power chair and
you will be able to see that the blinking lights mean: http://www.pgdt.com/scenter/diagnostics/diagvsi.html
Try to reset your manual brake release as this is a common problem.
If you continue to have a problem, contact your manufacturer or dealer
for service. If your insurance purchased they power chair for you, they
may also cover the cost of repairs.
Good luck!
sounds like the wiring from the motor to the controler is not making good connection, try unpluging motor wiring from controller box. Use a plastic safe elec. contact cleaner and lube spray on connections. water in the joystick can also cause this.
Change out the motor brushing on the motor that is not working, or get a nail filer & rub it against the metal pins the back of the chair for a better connection
