Golden LiteRider GL140 Service Manual page 9

Failure Signs: Beep Code #7
Tests: Call Tech Support
Expected readings: Depends on speed pot position.
Serviceable: No. Replace the control panel.
Component: Key Switch
Location: Mounted on the control panel (12). See #2 on figure 6.
Function: Completes the circuit to provide power to the motor.
Connections: Connected to the main harness through the
control panel harness.
Failure Signs: No power when the key is in the ON position.
Tests: Continuity when the key is in the "ON" position. Make
sure the connector pins are seated properly.
Expected readings: Less than 10 ohms.
Serviceable: No. Replace the control panel.
Component: Throttle Pot (13)
Location: Under the control panel. See #1 on figure 7.
Function: The throttle pot (potentiometer) uses variable
resistance to control speed and direction of travel by varying voltage.
Connections: Connected to the control panel harness (12a).
Refer to figure 8 on page 9.
Failure Signs: Beep Codes #6 and #7.
Tests: Test resistance across the pins 1, 2, and 3 and on 13a.
Expected readings: Depends on direction of deflection.
Serviceable: Replace as necessary.
Component: Charger Harness (14)
Location: Inside the battery pack. See #6 on figure 2 on page 5.
Function: Connects charger to battery harness.
Connections: Connected to the battery harness (4a) and the
charger, which is not shown. Refer to figure 8 on page 9.
Failure Signs: Batteries will not charge.
Tests: Test for voltage and continuity. Check connectors.
Make sure the pins are not corroded and are seated properly.
Expected readings: Continuity (less than 10 ohms).
Serviceable: Replace the harness as necessary.
Component: Off-Board Battery Charger
Location: Stored inside a pouch on the seatback.
Function: Recharges batteries.
Connections: Connects to the charger port on the battery pack (14b).
Refer to figure 8 on page 9. Charger harness is located inside the battery
pack. Connects the charger to the main harness.
Failure Signs: Charger power LED does not go on. Batteries will not charge.
Tests: Charger tests vary. Some chargers may be tested by measuring positive
and negative leads on the charger connector. Other chargers need to see
battery voltage before charging.
Expected reading: Varies with charger.
See charger test on page 11.
Test charger harness and fuse for continuity.
Serviceable: Replace if necessary.
NOTE: Some Off-Board Battery Chargers may have a switch
that enables them to be used with either 110 VAC or 230 VAC.
This switch is typically located on the end of the charger. Some
may also have a removable glass fuse.
*Fuses must be replaced with exact type and rating.*
