Basic Troubleshooting - Pride Elite Traveller Plus Owner's Manual

V I I I . B A S I C T R O U B L E S H O O T I N G
Any electromechanical device occasionally requires some troubleshooting. However, most of the prob-
lems that may 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.
DIAGNOSTIC BEEP CODES
The diagnostic beep codes for your Travel Scooter are designed to help you perform basic troubleshooting
quickly and easily. A diagnostic beep code will sound in the event one of the conditions listed below develops.
NOTE: Your Travel Scooter will not run unless the beep code condition is resolved and the Travel
Scooter has been turned off, then turned back on.

What if all the systems on my Travel Scooter seem to be "dead"?
Make certain that the key is in the "on" position.
Check that the batteries are fully charged.
Push in the main circuit breaker reset button. See III. "Your Travel Scooter."
Make certain that the battery pack is seated properly.
Be sure the power down timer feature has not been activated. See V. "Oper-
ation."
Check the tiller console fuse located under the battery pack.
To check a fuse:
1. Remove the fuse by pulling it out of its slot.
2. Examine the fuse to be sure it is blown. See figures 24 and 25.
3. Insert a new fuse of the proper rating.
WARNING! The replacement fuse must exactly match the rating
of the old fuse. Failure to use properly rated fuses may cause
damage to the electrical system.
