Trouble Codes
In addition to indicating the current state of battery charge, the battery condition meter can also indicate possible problems with your Jet 2. If the battery condition meter is flashing rapidly, the controller may be indicating a fault. The following is a list of the possible errors signified by the rapidly flashing meter.
Flash Code |
|
|
Sequence | Diagnosis | Solution |
Low battery voltage fault | Check batteries/battery wiring. | |
High battery voltage fault | Check batteries. | |
Left motor (or connection) fault | Check left motor wiring. | |
Right motor (or connection) fault | Check right motor wiring. | |
Left or right park brake (or connection) fault | Check motor/brake wiring. | |
Controller fault | See your authorized Pride provider. | |
Motor stalled or joystick out of neutral time out | Reset the power on/off button. | |

The symbol “•” means all 6 LEDs flash on for a period of 0.2 seconds and off for 0.8 seconds.

NOTE: You must turn the controller off and then on again to reset the controller, even if the source of the fault is removed/corrected.
In the event of a fault, the flashing battery condition meter displays diagnostic indications. Faults are encoded as follows: one (for a low battery voltage fault) to seven (for a motor stalled or joystick out of neutral time out fault) and are displayed by all LEDs flashing the number of times prescribed by the fault code. The flash sequence (one to seven) is followed by a long off period (2 seconds). If more than one fault exists, then the fault having the highest priority is indicated. The controller must be turned off and then on again even if the source of the fault is removed. If you cannot resolve the problem, contact your authorized Pride provider.
Thermal Rollback
The Jet 2 controller is equipped with a thermal rollback circuit. This circuit monitors the temperature of the motors and the controller. In the event that the motors or the controller become excessively hot (above 122°F), the controller reduces the motor voltage. For every degree above 122°F, the controller reduces the voltage by 5 volts. This reduces your Jet 2’s speed and allows the electrical components to cool down. When the temperature returns to a safe level, your Jet 2 resumes its normal speed capability.
