check the wiring from the batteries as a wire could have come loose.

Hi. Does the light flash a few times and then pause, and then repeat the flashing ? Count the flashes, it is a fault code. Do you have the fast/slow switch in slow? It might be a speed control fault. How old are the batteries? Might have a faulty motor. Faulty motor or battery leads and connectors. Go for a ride and then check if any of the plugs and sockets feel hot.

SOURCE: batteries die fast on my mobility scooter.

Hi. What size batteries you buy will be limited to the amount of room you have in the machine.
17 amp hour batteries are really a bit small for any mobility equipement. A lot of power chairs have 35 or 40 amp/hour batteries.
Buy the biggest that will fit into the available space.
Batteries are designed to perform a certain number of "charge cycles". If you run your batteries down by 75%, you will only get a small number of "charge cycles". If you only use 25% of the batteries capacity, you will get 100's of "charge cycles".
The best I have seen is 7 years out of a set of batteries. Short trips and recharging after each trip is the reason.
Good luck. Neil.

SOURCE: will not go. ohm wiring

me tool time you checked or changed about everything but did you check the electric brake. Sounds like the brake is not working or is working intermittentaly. The controller needs to get the right reading from the brake or the scooter will not go and when you release the throttle the brake should engage immediately. I can't give you a well thats the answer but you should at least ohm out the brake. If you can call rascal Company on Monday and ask for tech support they can give you what the reading should be Hope this helps

Where can I get a new battery?

The scooters use a deep cycle battery, same as a golf cart; so any place that has batteries should have them. Try Interstate Batteries, Sears, Auto supply shops and of course try contacting the people that build the scooter, they would have them or can tell you where you can find one local to where you are.

Scooter wiring diagram

Bad connections on the battery posts is most likely. If the circuit breaker was bad you'd get nothing at the battery . The charger voltage is 29 volts when not connected to the batteries. 26 or more when connected and on.

PRIDE MOBILITY 3 WHEEL SCOOTER FAILS TO MOVE FORWARD OR BACK

Hi. This is just a thought but have you tried putting the batteries back on the scooter and putting a volt meter on the batteries to get a reading when the lever is pressed on the scooter. Batteries can display as being fully charged (+12 volts) but often fail under load, meaning that as soon as you press the lever, the voltage will drop right off. If this happens, it is more than likely that your batteries are to blame.
Hope this helps.

I don't think the charger is working

This concern will require a volt/ohmn meter. If I am not mistaken, this scooter requires two 12 volt batteries wired in series. That is, the positive post of one battery connects to the negative post of the other and vice versa. This then constitutes an operational voltage of 24 volts. On most scooter chargers there are 3 pins that plug into the scooter to charge the batteries. On mine, the pin in the center pin is "ground". However, it is easily identified by setting the voltmeter to ohmns reading (a horseshoe shaped symbol) and doing what ever dissassembly is necessary to reach the scooter side wiring then touch one lead of the meter to either of the negative posts and the other to the exposed wires until the meter reads 0 ohmns or very close to this. This is the charger ground. Then set the meter to read DC voltage. Disconnect the charger from the scooter. Place the black lead on the meter on the identified ground of the charger and the red lead on either of the other two leads. There should be 12 volts either location. If there is not. the charger may be the problem. If there is, the batteries could have an internal problem and any auto parts store will happily check them for you.
Good luck and good hunting. If I can be of further help my email is [email protected]

How do I determine or - with 24 volts system/ I want to wire in the existing system to a new battery charger ith a different cinnection.

it is 24v and the best way to do it would be direct to the batteries but with a switch to isolate it from the scooter controlls when charging to prevent damage to the scooter also you do not want to charge faster than 2 amps or you will kill the battery life

I AM ONLY GETTING 9.3 VOLT TO THE MOTOR

Just to be sure have the batteries tested with a load tester. Then ohm test the brake. It should be around 35 ohms.
