Rascal Pioneer Diagnostic Functions

Your Scooter Controller provides diagnostic information in the form of flash-codes. The lamp on the battery
indicator flashes to indicate a problem has been detected. On switching on, the controller conducts a diagnostic
test. While this test is in progress the lamp will flash and, if no fault is detected it will remain on. If there is a fault,
the lamp will flash a sequence of flashes to indicate what the fault is.

exactly what the problem is, recounting as much detail as possible including the indicated faults.
