Basic Troubleshooting - Pride Mobility Destiny Owner's Manual

I X . B A S I C T R O U B L E S H O O T I N G
Any electromechanical device requires occasional troubleshooting. However, most problems that arise can usually
be solved with a bit of thought and common sense. Many of these problems occur because the batteries are not
fully charged or because the batteries are worn down and can no longer hold a charge.
What if the motor runs but my scooter does not move?
! Your scooter was probably left in freewheel mode.
! When the manual freewheel lever is pushed down, the brakes are disengaged and all power to the motor/transaxle
is cut.
! Pull the manual freewheel lever upward to restore normal operation to your scooter.
What if the main circuit breaker trips repeatedly?
! Charge the scooter's batteries more frequently. See V. "Batteries and Charging."
! See V. "Batteries and Charging" or III. "Specifications" for information about your scooter's battery type.
! If the main circuit breaker continues to trip repeatedly, contact your authorised Pride Dealer for service.
What if the battery condition meter dips way down and the motor surges or hesitates when I press the
throttle control lever?
! Fully charge your scooter's batteries. See V. "Batteries and Charging."
! Have your authorised Pride Dealer load test each battery.
What if all the systems on my scooter seem to be "dead?"
! Make certain that the key is in the "on" position.
! Check that the batteries are fully charged. See V. "Batteries and Charging."
! Push in the main circuit breaker reset button. See IV. "Your scooter."
! If having changed a battery recently, ensure all the battery connections secure.
! Check that the power down timer feature has not been activated. See VI. "Operation."
If you experience any problems with your scooter that you are not able to solve, contact your authorised Pride
Dealer for information on maintenance and service.
