John count the number of flashes by the green light and it will be the fault code indicating the problem Your owners manual should list the fault codes to be able to determine what the problem is. Ie 4 blinks pause 4 blinks pause. The clicking you hear is the electric brakes being engaged. Hope this helps

I have a Golden GC321 When the battery charger is on there is a green light and next to it is a red light Does the red light ever go off when charging.

the gc 321 has a diagonistic sender built in, go to golden companion.com
and down load the owners manuel for it, its free and very helpful, when you 1st turn on the key , you count the times the red lite blinks an it will diagnose your problem, then you look it up in the manuel!
also go to monster.com and type in make and model, a set of keys is about $10

This sounds like the battery's have gone bad. You will need to check with a local dealer to find replacement battery's. If you can access the battery's to remove them they can be tested at any local auto parts store.

I have a Golden Companion II, all power comes on:light, battery meter and horn but it won't move when I press the throttle. I do hear the click from the brake but it won't move forward or reverse. If its...

Tony Check the freewheel lever Make sure that the scooter can't be pushed easily. If you can push it then its in freewheel. Now Tony you could have a problem with the brake itself. There is a small micro switch on the brake that engages and disengages when you move the freewheel lever. If you can get a close look at it make sure that it still looks like its operating its a mechanical mech activated by the lever on the brake. If it looks ok and you can get the scooter in or out of freewheeling (the rear wheels lock and unlock) then it could be a throttle pot problem or a speed control pot problem. Fortunately you can't bypass the throttle or speed pot. You will have to get these checked by a tech either with your provider or a service company that has techs around your area. I'm sorry I couldn't give you a quick fix but scooters are more difficult to troubleshoot because of all the different componets necessary to make it go. Good Luck Hope this helps

Hi My wife has a Golden Companion GC 221, has new

Has the scooter been stored for a while? It sounds like there are damaged cells in the batteries. This can cause the charger to register a full charge when actually the batteries are nearly empty. When you operate the scooter, you cannot get full power because the batteries just don't have it to give. Try replacing the batteries to see if that solves that problem.

I haVe two golden companion scooters that worked Perfectly. One day they just quit running. I know that when the light blinks a certain number of times in the manual it tells you what's wrong. Both of mine...

Hi. 5 flashes on some scooters is the fault code for brake coil open circuit. This usually means that the free-wheel lever is in the wrong position.
Someone might have moved the levers so that they could push the scooters, and forgot to put the levers back to the correct position.
This fault code can also mean that the solenoid coil is faulty, but 9 times out of 10, it is the lever in the wrong position.
Good luck. Neil.

How long does it take to fully charge Golden Companion II bATTERIES?

Hi. Charging batteries is dependent on how far you travelled, the size of the battery, and the type of charger you have.
The best rule is to charge the batteries overnight after each use.
If your charger has an LED to show when the batteries are nearly full.
This LED is a guide only, and most batteries still need a few more hours of charging after the LED turns green.
Charging batteries is not like filling up a jug of water. Its a chemical reaction in a battery, and it takes time to charge them fully.
Good luck. Neil.

Companion II. The light blinks 7 times over and

7 light error refers to paddle or speed
potentiometer problem, if you feel confident taking the covers off then check that all the connections are nice and firm, also on other scooters if the paddle is not located in the neutral position when you turn the scooter on the control box will detect this and "lock out" the scooter, you can fix this using trial and error but it can be very fiddly! (yes iv had to do this before!) if all the connections seem quite solid and on the control box this would possibly suggest that either the potentiometer has failed and will need replacing (which would mean reconfiguring the paddle when its in) or there is a fault in the control box, if you dont feel comftable/cant fix this problem then obviously i would reccomend taking it to an authorised repair shop, i hope this helps you if i can be of any furthur assistance then my email is rick @ lxrixta.co.uk (remove the spaces!)

Reversing thumb controls

Your authorized Golden Technologies, Inc. dealer can reverse the thumb lever controls so that when you push on the “left” lever, your scooter will move in the forward direction, and pushing on the “right” lever will move your scooter in reverse.

If you don't want to go to a dealer, any mechanic who is willing can make this adjustment for y ou. hope this helps.
