Pride Mobility Legend 4, Legend 3 manual A S I C Troubleshooting, Diagnostic Flash Codes

X . B A S I C T R O U B L E S H O O T I N G

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.

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 will flash from the status LED in the event one of the conditions listed below develops.

NOTE: Your scooter will not run unless the flash code condition is resolved and the scooter has been turned off, then turned back on.
