Get the batteries tested .As a motor mechanic your husband should know about battery care you could have removed them and charged them with a car battery charger or any of the trickle chargers used to keep batteries charged while not in use

You need to contact the manufacturer of the scooter

From a pure physics standpoint... The energy to climb a hill... be it from the steep side or the gentle sloping side is the same... It is just easier on your heart and joints to take the gentle slope... (assuming you have the time). ERGO: If treating the scooter like a QUEEN is your goal... DEFINITELY GO SLOW. Tat way you will have no idea if it has any weak spots when you need it to go fast (and you will). I'm old... I don't have TIME to waste! Carnac the Magnificent

Hello. Begin by checking and cleaning all of the electrical connections. I recommend going to an auto parts store and getting an aerosol can of electrical contact cleaner. Use this on all of the connections as it both cleans and demoisturizes. If this does not solve your problem, you may have to get your scooter to an autoelectric repair shop where they have all of the diagnostic tools to isolate the problem. Just go to the yellow pages of the phone book under auto electric repair shops. Joe

gilly your controller still thinks you are charging the chair. This error is a charger inhibit error which means that when you have the charger plugged in you can't drive the chair. If your charger is not plugged into the chair then you have a problem that needs to looked at by your provider where you got the chair or by a tech Sorry I don't have a quick fix Hope this helps you

if light does not work fault in wiring or connection

I just fixed this problem in a Go Go Elite that was less than 6 months old. We would plug in the charger and the "charge" light would not turn on, just the "power light" I took out the battery pack (check manual for instructions), removed the cover (8 philips head screws) and checked the voltage on the two batteries. One read 4.5 volts and the other 4.7 volts. They should both read at least 11 volts, ideally 12 volts. Evidently the Pride charger will not work if it detects that the batteries are too low. So I took out one battery at a time and connected a 12 volt auto trickle charger to it for 3 hours on each battery. Checked voltages and it brought them back up to 11.5 volts. I reinstalled the battery pack and then connected the Pride charger and THEN it showed a "Charge" light. I left the pride charger on for 12 hours and it brought it up to full charge.
Advice: Don't let your batteries get too low or the factory charger will not work.

Most likely the joy stick and the circuit it controls is defective.

The battery charger is failing. The charger uses a switching power supply and you're hearing high voltage arcing internally.

Turn on the key, hold until it beeps. Push the joystick full forward until it beeps, pull the joystick full back until it beeps. It is now unlocked

If you can't hear the brake release solenoid working then you need to find the wire harness on the motor and locate the two smaller diameter wires. Those are for the brakes. They may have become disconnected either at the wheel end or the controller end.

Hi pull youre seat swivel lever at the same time U r lifting the seat..,... Cheers

I have a pl3-01 scooter in for repairs and 3 resistors on the circuit are fried and I can't get the color coding of the resistors to replace them. Can you send me a picture of your circuit board and I will see if I can fix this 1, and if I can, maybe I can help you out.

hi,

Sounds to me like the worm drive is slipping , this can happen when the worm drive small bearing is worn,

If you do take it a part , please take great care, the shaft from the motor will have a worm drive, two bearings on the worm drive,

Try to move the shaft within the bearings, I paid £10 for replacement bearings.

Please give me a update.

Regards
GeWiz.
