1.3 Re-Charging the Batteries
If the total Battery voltage is less than 8 Volts, charge each Battery separately with a 12 Volt Trickle Charger for a few hours. This should bring the voltage back up to the level that the
1.4 Not Charging
Check the charger indicator light in the front shroud. If it is not lighted, check the connection from the light to the charger. Check the Circuit Breaker Box and make sure it is not tripped. Make sure the 3 pin Charger plug is connected properly and is in good condition. Check all batteries and harness connections following steps 1.2 and 1.5 - 1.9 Check the connection from the A/C charging outlet to the charger. If none of these actions have corrected the problem, then replace the charger.
Note: On Board Charger Indicator Light shows Amber color when charging, and Green when fully charged.
1.5 Battery Connection Check
Check that the female Beau plug on the chair has voltage. Set the meter to dc volts and measure pins 5 (using the red lead of the meter) and 7 (using the black lead of the meter) as shown in (figure A1.5.1).
A1.5.1
If the voltage meter reads full voltage, then measure pins 6 (using the red lead of the meter) and 8 (using the black lead of the meter) as shown in (figure A1.5.2). If both the measurements read full voltage, then replace the controller, or else proceed to the next step.
A1.5.2
If both of the measurements read full voltage, then replace the controller.
