Troubleshooting - Pride Mobility Victory Owner's Manual

I X .
Any electromechanical device occasionally requires some troubleshooting. However, most of the problems 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.
PROBLEM
All of my scooter systems appear to be “dead.”
My scooter’s battery condition metre shows a full charge,
but my scooter does not move when I push/pull the throttle
control lever.
My scooter’s main circuit breaker repeatedly trips.
My scooter’s battery condition metre dips way down and
the motor surges or hesitates when I push/pull the throttle
control lever.
If you experience any problems with your scooter that you are not able to solve, immediately contact your autho-
rised Pride Dealer for information, maintenance, and service.
