My Schwinn S-180 scooter won't charge

My Schwinn S-180 scooter was sitting unplugged for about 2 years. When I plugged in the charger, the charge indicator light was green and it stayed green after connecting it to the scooter. My scooter never charged at all. Is my charger bad or my battery?

Check your charger with a meter and see if it is putting out the correct voltage for your scooter battery. If it is, you probably need a battery, probably so anyway after 2 years. Good luck!

Charging your power chair or scooter the correct way can make them last

Whenever you need to charge your power chair or scooter get into the habit of charging overnight. The battery level indicator lights will tell you if your chair or scooter needs charging. Whenever the lights are down into the yellow and especially if they are in the red. If you have the off-board charger, plug the charger into the charger port in the front of your joystick and then plug the charger into the wall socket or turn the on/off switch on and let it charge overnight. When you get up in the morning the charger should have a red light(power) and a green light illuminated (indicating fully charged) Always turn the charger off or unplug it from the wall socket before you unplug it from the chair or scooter. Never have the power on to the charger when you plug or unplug it from your chair or scooter. Whenever you get new batteries always give your batteries a full charge before use and then if you use the chair daily charge it every night. If you do not use your chair or scooter daily charge it at least once a week. Never leave the charger plugged in and on for more than 24 hours. Your batteries should last you 3-4 years if you charge them correctly.

I charged the battery up on schwinn 180 still want go

Its likely that you just need a new battery. Batteries that are used seasonally have a shorter lifespand, especially if they are stored without being fully charged. You can find a replacement at http://www.batteryinternational.com/electric-scooter-batteries-schwinn-s180.html

Does the S600 and a Missle FS schwinn scooters use same charger?

Hi you can use the charger if the Specifications match up. Output volts, Amps, Charger size, The most important is it 24 volt or 36 volt charger. Check your scooter to see what volt it runs at. Must be equal to your scooter!

Can't charge my e-scooter

ok you do not need a new charger. the problem is you let the battery get too low. the battery has to have a little bit of power left in it to send to the charger, if it dosent then the charger can't tell if there is rilly a battery hooked up or not. you shuld probubly get a new battery. or you can email me and i will tell you a few things you could try to jump it back to life.      [email protected]

Schwinn S180 won't charge

NashvilleDan, this scooter has 2 12v 10 amp batteries in series, you should read over 24 volts at the charging hub if the batteries are good. I would think that if the scooter sat for over a year you have bad batteries, They can be purchased at battery plus.

Not sure if this will help... however an altmeter will allow you to test along your electrics for any faults. You can check at the lights for example and throught the system.
