20 Most Recent Pride Jazzy 1113 ATS Indoor Power Wheelchair Questions & Answers

When the charger is on and connected, there is an inhibit circuit that prevents the chair from moving while charging the battery.

check wiring and pcb in your chair...it may be loose connection in between the path

The flash codes for the VSI controller used on this chair are located here:

These will tell you what the fault is; repost with more information.

You need to charge each battery individually with an automotive NON automatic battery charger until at least 10 volts is reached. The chair charger will not charge a battery unless that voltage is present.

Your chair uses two U-1 batteries. Here's the manual: http://www.pridemobility.com/includes/download.php?f=Owners_Manuals/US_Jazzy/US_Jazzy_1113_ATS_om.pdf Since you're about to replace them anyway, you might try something else first.. Your charger is a "smart" charger. If the charge on the batteries is too low, the charger won't recognise them as bateries, and won't charge them. Get access to the batteries (it's in the manual) and disconnect them. Keep track of where the wires came from. Use an old, non-"smart", car charger to put a quick charge on them. Bring them up to 12 V each, or just an hour apiece. Hook everything back up and try it again with the Pride charger. Good luck.

The flash of the speed lights indicate that you are in the charger inhibit mode and if the charger is not plugged in then you have a problem that needs to be checked by a tech or your provider that sold you your chair Sorry I don't have a quick fix

Hello, this may be a late answer. I would have returned to the technician for answers, also. It may be possible to regenerate batteries so hang on to them until you have them tested. Hope this helped .

It depends on how it and the wheelchair are wired and how the voltage is derived. Presumably the 24 volt wheelchair requirement is provided by two 12 volt batteries connected in series and these could be recharged in series by a 24 volt charger and a pair of wires or by a 12 volt charger providing a 12 - 0 - 12 using three wires where one 12 is a positive in relation to the 0 and the other is a negative in relation to the zero making a potential difference of 24 volts. There could conceivably be circuitry within the wheelchair that requires only 12 volts for recharging and causes the two batteries to be charged separately, though while this method could be desirable and offer some benefits it would be considered unnecessarily expensive and complicated for most commercial purposes. As usual you really need to know what is supposed to happen or is designed to happen before fault-finding can begin. One of the wires could be a safety ground wire but most likely it is used to provide some sort of feedback to the charger from, perhaps, a thermal switch close to the batteries so charging will cease if too much heat is generated.

Go to Pride Mobility website/ http://www.pridemobility.com/jazzy/ and get manual for Jazzy 1113 it is found on page 31 but manual for jazzy113ats doesnt have codes. Good luck.

Have the joystick controller tested. Make sure the cable is fully seated in the chair connector.

Doesn't matter. When you plug in the charger it automatically shuts off power to the scooter. If it doesn't then look inside the charger plug for a broken wire

Visit:Peeplo.com/Free+Repair+Manual & im almost sure as i have a disability scooter when its not in use use a decent trickle charger they can be left plugged in for up to 3 months,so your batteries are fully charged all the time & plug back in even if you do a 100 yards trip,lets be honest the batteries are not cheap,so get the most out of them.or if not in use for any period after they are fully charged disconnect them.

If it is the older VSI controller, turn on chair. as the battery lights scroll, hold the joystick in the (UP) position until you hear a beep. Then immediately place the joystick in the (down) position until you hear a beep. then place the joystick in center position, once you hear the beep for the final time, it should be unlocked. If you have a Dynamic controller, turn on chair then press the horn button to unlock.

please contact the dealer and have a tech come with a programer and rread the error codes and tell u what is wrong and what to do or what needs to be done

they wont as long as its turned on, sounds like he is fishing,and is not qualified or he would have a programmer for that chair and he could check error codes and tell u exactly what is wrong,call the dealer for a more exsperienced tech and give model of chair and request he have a programmer for that model power chair okif he comes without that ptogrammer send him back and dont pay him

thats not supposed to happen at all,bad joystic or controller ,please contact dealer or take power chair to them and have tech give u a written report before u do anything,will cost u less money in the long run

3 flashes indicate that there is a short circuit to the left motor and battery connection. Check wiring and connections

If your batteries are truly charge they should read around 24.5 VDC. And if the freewheel lever is engaged and you still have no movement your probably need to get into a service tech. Also check the circuit breaker on the chair.

Original Jazzy Select has push-down levers on each side behind powered wheels. These manually disengage the brakes on each motor individually. They are about 6 inches long and push down an inch or so. I don;t know about other more current models, The 2 smaller wires to each motor disengage the brake when given power (24 volt, I think). The 2 larger wires run the motor.
