Hi, read my other post solution:

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!

Hi there,

Your scooter uses dual 12-volt, 10-amp hour sealed recyclable lead acid battery.

You may want to open below link to see some examples of batteries suitable to your scooter.

i had the same problem so i took the battery out and pluged the moped in and it ran so i knew the battery had a prob then i took the battery out of the canvas case and it had expanded to the point were it almost leaked (exploded battery in other words)

Do you know the model number on the battery that you have? This website should be able to get you started if you don't. Check out http://www.batteryinternational.com/electric-scooter-batteries-schwinn.html

The batteries are dead. The battery in these scooter need to be kept charged or if not in use for a long time charged every 3months. Otherwise, like what to you, they will go dead. The chemicals in the battery have deteriorated to the point where it won't hold a charge. Replacement batteies are probably available at:

I am having the same problem. By all indications it looks like the motor controller is the problem. Everything else works OK. I am pulling the controller tomorrow and replacing. If that doesn't work I am junking it.

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

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.
