Beep Code #7 - Paddle Fault/Speed Control Fault (Voltage Error) - Golden Technologies Buzzaround XL GB146 Service Manual

BEEP CODE #7 - PADDLE POT/SPEED CONTROL FAULT
This Beep Code occurs because there is a fault with the throttle pot,
speed pot, or the associated wiring.
Check Throttle Pot Resistance at Controller.
1) Remove the seat.
2) Remove the battery pack.
3) Remove the four screws that fasten the controller
cover to the underside of the scooter frame.
4) Turn the speed pot to full rabbit.
5) Set your multimeter to measure resistance.
6) Disconnect the main harness (7a) from the
controller. Refer to figure 11 on page 10.
7) Insert multimeter probes into the main harness
connector 7a at pin 8 and pin 2 (blue wire and
orange wire). See gure 22.
2.5k ohm ±10%? - go to the next step.
Outside that range? - Go to step 9.
8) Insert the multimeter probes into the main
harness connector 7a at pin 1 and pin 8
(blue wire and yellow wire). See gure 23.
Note the resistance reading. Insert the
multimeter probe into the main harness
connector at pin 1 and pin 2 (yellow wire and orange
wire). See gure 24. Note the resistance reading.
Are both readings within 500 ohms of each
other? - Replace the controller.
Are either of the readings outside that range? - Go
to the next step.
Check Throttle Pot Resistance at Throttle Pot.
9) Open the control panel.
10) Disconnect the control panel harness (12a) from
the throttle pot (13a). Refer to figure 11 on page 10.
11) Insert multimeter probes into the throttle pot
connector (13a) at the blue wire and the orange
wire (outside two pins). See gure 25.
2.5k ohm ±10%? - go to the next step.
Outside that range? - Replace the throttle
pot.
