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.
What if all of my scooter systems appear to be "dead?"
Ensure the key is fully inserted in the key switch.
Ensure the batteries are fully charged.
Push in the main circuit breaker reset button.
Ensure the 9-pin connector is firmly attached.
Ensure both battery harnesses are firmly connected to the electronic controller and to the battery terminals.
What if my scooter's battery condition meter shows a full charge, but my scooter does not move
when I push the throttle control lever?
Ensure your scooter was not left in freewheel mode. (Pull up on the freewheel lever to restore normal operation.)
NOTE: When the freewheel lever is pushed down, your scooter's brakes are disengaged and all power
to the transaxle is cut.
What if my scooter's main circuit breaker trips repeatedly?
Charge your scooter's batteries more frequently.
Have both of your scooter's batteries load tested by your authorised Pride Dealer.
Obtain a battery load tester at most automotive parts stores; follow the directions supplied with the
load tester.
What if my scooter's 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.
Have your authorised Pride Dealer load test each battery.
Obtain a battery load tester at most automotive parts stores; follow the directions supplied with the
load tester.
If you experience any problems with your scooter that you are unable to resolve, immediately contact your
authorised Pride Dealer for information, maintenance and service.
