Depending on the controller type being used you either have a controller solenoid brake fault (sticker on bottom of joystick will say "PG Drives" and have 9-bars flashing) or a communication error between the controller and joystick (Dynamic Controller flashing wrench).
Repair for PG Drive is to replace joystick/controller.
Repair for Dynamic is to clean, remove and reseat or replace joystick cable.

There isn't too much you can do to fix this problem. You will have to have the joystick replaced. If Medicare paid for the chair then they will pay for most of the repair costs contact the provider that sold you your chair to have them order a joystick from Pride and repair the chair for you Hope this helps

Do all of the speed lights flash at the same time or do they ripple from left to right? If they ripple from left to right the chair is in lock mode and you can use the unlock procedures from my tips to unlock. If they are all flashing at the same time you have an internal joystick problem and the joystick needs to be replaced Hope this helps

Eight, pause, eight Power Module Fault - Check connections to the power module and batteries. The power module is located near the front of the chair under the base cover you will have to unplug the joystick then remove the seat and the cover. The wiring for your motors, batteries and joystick all plug into the power module. Check each connection to make sure they are in good and solid if you can pull it out easily then the wire was not in there locked push in each connector to make sure they are seated in the module. now you can plug the joystick back into the cable coming from the module without replacing the cover and seat. Turn on the joystick to check if you are still getting the error if you are then the power module will have to be replaced If the error is gone then unplug the joystick replace the cover and seat plug the joystick back in and power up then go for a ride Hope this helps

How many flashes? Count number of flashes should be a slight pause then flashes the same number of times . Your manual will give you flash codes and you can determine what the problem is. If all the lights are flashing and there is no pause the chair could be in "lockout" Your manual should tell you how to get the chair out of lockout I think that Pride uses the joystick to get it out of this mode.. Turn the chair on move the joystick forward till you hear a beep then move the joystick to the rear until you hear another beep release the joystick and the lights should quit flashing Hope this helps

If you can do this or have someone else do it for you. Switch the motor connections on the main computer of the chair. If the it goes to a 4 flash then you know that the left motor is bad. If it stays at two flash then either the controller or the joystick is bad.

a 7 Flashe code. There is a joystick fault. Make sure the joystick is in the center position and then power off and on again. Check all your couplings. make sure when turning on the unit you only mash the power button for 1 sec. 2-3 sec will put the unit in "Lock out mode".
This ierror will also be present if the joystick is off center when powered up. If you experience these symptoms, you must first make sure there is no physical damage to the joystick preventing it from returning to the center position. Then turn the power off and back on again (making sure the joystick is not depressed in any direction. If the joystick repeats this error, the controler much be replaced. [email protected]
