When mine does this it means she is not fully in gear. Try manually moving it back and forth a few inches and see if it clicks in.(Like moving the seat back in the car and it doesn't quite click in.) If it doesn't work take it fully back out of gear and try again.

You could also try checking the key is in straight, and that all the cords are plugged in tight. You may need a hand with this, as you need to lift the chair off, (Straight up) and then the cover of the back section, removing the locking pins as you go. My loocking pins tend to get very stiff and I cant pull them out myself due to arthritis:)

If all else fails, check the troubleshooting page (33) of the manual, available in pdf at

Hi my days strider midi4 keeps going in reverse for about 4 seconds after you take the throttle off

spares sounds like the throttle pot is not being centered upon release making the scooter move in reverse or forward depending on which way it is off center. try pushing on the thottle lever slowly forward when you stop to see if that stops the creeping. Then you can try to adjust the pot by loosening the lever and retightening it in the forward direction that stops the creeping. You might have to order a new throttle pot assembly to get this working right. Hope this helps

Go Go Scooter travels in reverse, but when going forward it comes to an abrupt stop every few seconds. Everything else appears to work normally. Any ideas?

csr4 Well it could be the throttle pot or the speed control pot My leanings is toward the throttle pot since it works in reverse with the speed pot not being changed but not forward. when you are just changing the position of the throttle to forward thereby changing the pot wiper and getting the error. Contact Pride about the problem at 1-800-800-8586 and ask for Tech support for scooters and explain your problem to them. I hope this helps

Small bar on tiller to make it go forward and reverse broken so no way to control start and stop. Also, free wheel is broken and scooter moves when in stop mode or key is removed. can I still use it,...

Hi. Are there other faults as well? Maybe you should get another quote from a different technician, or ask him if he has any second hand parts available.
If you use it, and you cant control it, you end up down a bank or under a bus.
What brand and model is it?
Sometimes the brake disc in the brake unit splits and allows the machine roll on. Sometimes the brake lever has had a bump, and just needs to be pushed back into place properly.
Try contacting the authorised service people for this scooter, and get some prices from them. Good luck. Neil.
