After the key is inserted, I hear 7 beeping tones and the scooter doesn't move.

If the lights on your Golden 3-wheel scooter won't turn off and you hear a beeping sound after turning it on, it could indicate a potential issue. Here are some troubleshooting steps you can try:

1. Check the key switch: Ensure that the key is inserted fully into the key switch and turned to the correct position. Sometimes, if the key is not fully engaged or turned properly, it can cause electrical issues. Try removing the key, reinserting it, and turning it to the correct position.
2. Examine the battery connections: Inspect the battery connections to ensure they are secure and free from corrosion. Loose or corroded connections can affect the scooter's electrical system. If you notice any loose or corroded connections, carefully tighten or clean them as needed.
3. Verify the charger connection: If the scooter is connected to a charger, make sure it is properly plugged in and connected to the scooter. A loose or faulty charger connection can cause electrical malfunctions. Try unplugging and reconnecting the charger to ensure a secure connection.
4. Check the scooter's manual: Refer to the owner's manual or user guide for your specific model of Golden 3-wheel scooter. It may provide troubleshooting steps or information about the beeping sound and lights issue you are experiencing. Look for any error codes or indications that can help diagnose the issue

Beeping is normally indicating a fault! Is there a sequence to the beeping! Like 5 beeps then a pause?

2 beeps=too low battery voltage
3 beeps=battery voltage too high
5 beeps=solenoid brake trip or free wheel mode
remove key then push then push the manual release lever in completely
6 beeps=throttle trip
throttle control lever may have been depressed while
inserting key so release control lever completely
7 beeps=throttle trip
throttle potentiometer fault or speed potentiometer fault

Hi Mag,
I have this steps that might help you with beeping sound on your Scooter. Hope it helps.

UNIT LIGHTS UP/HORN WORKS BUT UNIT WILL NOT MOVE
Possible Cause:

• This often occurs when the scooter is in free wheel mode and is not in drive mode. Re-Engage the free wheel lever which is located down near the rear wheels (normally a yellow or red lever).
• If you hear a beeping noise, the beeping you hear is a fault beep indicating the scooter main control box has detected a problem. Contact your dealer who can diagnose the beep code.
• Check batteries with load tester - If either battery drops more than 1 volt under a load, the battery(s) are bad. Replace "both" batteries.

I also find these additional steps on how to know beep alarm indicators:

This main control box has a self-diagnostics feature & cannot be tested with a volt meter. When a
problem is present the main control box will diagnose the fault, prohibit the scooter from being driven
and sound an alert beep. Each alert beep indicates a different issue which helps to determining the
problem by narrowing the fault into one of a few main areas of the scooter. Reference this information
below for the alert beep indications.

Very Rapid beep- Batteries are low. Charge & test batteries.
Medium Fast beep- Motor/brake wiring fault. Free wheel lever disengaged.
Solid beep- The charger is plugged into the scooter (some models may vary).
Very Slow beep- The throttle pot was not at center when you turned the unit on. Throttle pot off
center or wiring (yellow & orange wires) fault.

This scooter has an S drive controller. The beep code will begin with 10 very fast beeps followed by a number of slower beeps. The number of slower beeps indicates the actual code. It will do this only once. To repeat the beep code, remove and reinsert the key.
Beep code #9 is a possible controller trip.
Diagnosis:
The key may have been inserted during battery box installation.
The controller may be overheated.
The brake is dragging or pulling too much current.
Solution:
Remove the key from the key switch before installing the battery box.
If the problem persists shut down the scooter for 10-15 minutes and allow the controller to cool down.
Bottom line is that you may need a new controller or brake. Keep in mind these may be warranty items. A qualified technician may be needed to diagnose and repair the problem. Hope this helps.

Hi. This sounds difficult. I have had a few scooters move slowly forward or in reverse, but not both. Normally if the speed pot ( wig wag ) is not exactly in the central position, they can do this.
It is possible for a scooter to have your problem, if the speed lever is binding or rubbing on the housing. Normally the lever is returned to the middle by a spring around the speed pot shaft. If this spring is loose or broken, then this could also cause the problem. Sometimes a small spot of oil or grease will help.
To check the speed lever is in the middle, slowly move the lever for forward untill you hear the brake solenoid release. Now release the lever and slowly pull it for reverse untill you hear the brake solenoid release. Make sure that the speed lever moves the same amount for forward as it does for reverse. If not adjust it with the key off.
If you get the machine to drive properly, then change the controller to see if it is OK.
As for the beeping, a lot of machines will go into an error mode if the speed lever is not in the central position when you turn the key on. This is a safety precausion.
Good luck. Neil.
