Any electromecha ical 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.

DIAGNOSTIC FLASH CODES

The diagnostic flash codes for your scooter are designed to help you perform basic troubleshooting quickly and easily. A diagnostic flash code flashes from the status LED in the event one of the conditions listed below develops.

NOTE: Your scooter will ot run unless the flash code condition is resolved and the scooter has been turned off then turned back on.

CONDITION

Batteries are too low to operate the Maxima or the charger is operating.

Controller is hot; the Maxima seems to be losing power.

Wigwag fault; your throttle control levers are not responding.

The manual freewheel lever is in the (up) freewheel position.

The Maxima is operating with the charger attached.

SOLUTION

Charge batteries or unplug the charger power cord from the electrical outlet.

Shut down your Maxima for several minutes to allow the controller to cool.

Call your authorized Pride Provider for assistance.

Turn the Maxima key to the off position, then push the manual freewheel lever to the (down) drive position, restart your Maxima.

Unplug the charger cord from the charger power cord receptacle.

What if all the systems on my scooter seem to be “dead”?

νMake certain that the key is in the “on” position.

νCheck that the batteries are fully charged. See VI. “Batteries and Charging.”

νPush in the main circuit breaker reset button. See V. “Your Scooter”

νMake certain that both battery harnesses are firmly connected to the electronics module and to the battery terminals. See IX. “Disassembly and Assembly.”

νMake sure that the front-to-rear harness is firmly connected to the electronics module. See IX. “Disassembly and Assembly.”

νCheck the fuses. See XI. “Care and Maintenance” for fuse replacement.

νBe sure the power down timer feature hasn’t been activated. See VII “Operation.”

What if the motor runs but my scooter does not move?

νWith the key turned to the “on” position, check the status LED. If the LED flashes three times, pauses briefly, then flashes two times, this is the manual freewheel lever code meaning your scooter is in freewheel mode.

νWhen the manual freewheel lever is pulled up, the brakes are disengaged and all power to the transaxle is cut.

νPush down the manual freewheel lever to restore normal operation to your scooter See V. “Your Scooter.”
