11 Troubleshooting
11.1 Diagnosis and fault repair
The electronic system offers diagnostic information
to support the technician during the recognition and
rectification of faults on the scooter. If there is a fault, the
status display flashes several times, pauses, then flashes
again. The type of fault is displayed by the number of flashes
in each group, which are also known as the "flash code".
The electronic system reacts differently depending on the
seriousness of the fault and its effect on user safety. It can,
for example:
•
Show the flash code as a warning and allow both
driving and normal operation to continue.
•
Display the flash code, stop the scooter and prevent
further travel until the electronic system has been
switched off and switched on again.
•
Display the flash code, stop the scooter and not permit
further travel until the fault has been rectified.
You can find detailed descriptions of individual flash codes,
including possible causes and fault repair, in the section
entitled 11.1.2 Error codes and diagnostic codes, page 54.
11.1.1 Error diagnosis
