Just bought sed Jazzy Select for my wife. Chair appears relatively new. No leakage or corrosion on batteries. Charger indicates full charge but within two minutes of operation both green lights on joy stick control are out. Any thoughts on this...

Still your batteries are bad. Had this problem before. If the batteries are more than 1 to 2 years old they need to be replaced. The charger only tells you it can't charge anymore, because the battery is sulfated. The meter on the chair is telling you the batteries are not strong enough to run the chair.

3A should be fine. Pride uses 3A for other models with two U1 batteries. Make sure they're wheelchair batteries: gel or AGM. Not car batteries.

You have to disconnect the charger in order for the chair to move. It automatically removes power from the controller while the batteries charge.

charger is no good or is not the correct charger for that chair suggestion have a dealer tech replace a original charger in chair,it should have a 3 yr warranty anyways

The voltmeter should read 29 volts when on. You should never replace one battery and leave an old battery in the chair. Replace them both at the same time.

doug then you could have received a bad battery or you have a charger problem or a charger circuit problem. If the chair comes on then the wiring is ok. when you plug the charger in do you have a green light and a yellow light on the charger? (when fully charged the light goes from yellow to green indicating full charge) If when you plug the charger in and you have a red and green light then there is a problem with the charging citcuit. I would contact your provider where you got the chair to have them check it out for you Hope this helps

Mike since you know that the charger is not working you have two options purchase a new on-board charger or try to locate a good off-board charger from the area. A friend that has an extra charger or from a local provider that sells chairs. The off-board charger will plug into the charger port under the front of the joystick and will charge the batteries just as well. Just don't use the on-board charger but leave it in the chair. Hope this helps

Virginia sorry no. Your charger cannot pickup low batteries and charge them. You will have to purchase 2 new U1 batteries. If Medicare purchased your chair then they will pay for most of the cost of new batteries. If you bought the chair then I would look for a battery warehouse type store or an Interstate battery store and buy them there they would be somewhat cheaper than buying them from a provider. Hope this helps you
