When to See Your Quantum Rehab Specialist for Service
The following symptoms could indicate a serious problem with your power chair. If necessary, contact your Quantum Rehab Specialist. When calling, have the model number, serial number, nature of the problem, and the error code if available.
νMotor noise
νFrayed harnesses
νCracked or broken connectors
νUneven wear on any of the tires
νJerky motion
νPulling to one side
νBent or broken wheel assemblies
νDoes not power up
νPowers up, but does not move
Corrective Maintenance
If the battery condition meter does not light up when you turn on the power:
νCheck the harness connections. Make sure they are tight.
νCheck the circuit breaker. Reset it if necessary.
νCheck the battery connections.
If the above conditions prove normal, you can load test the batteries with a battery load tester. These testers are available at automotive parts stores. Disconnect both batteries before load testing and follow the directions that come with the load tester. If either one of the batteries fails the load test, replace both of them. If your power chair still does not power up, contact your Quantum Rehab Specialist.
