Hi. When the machine is on, does it display a flashing light or LED on the display for a fault code? Is the free-wheel lever switch operating correctly?
You might have a sticky brush in the motor. Take the brushes out and check their condition. If the brush caps are not tight enough then the current arc's on to the side of the brush, and it jams in the brush holder.
Check the resistance through the motor before touching the brushes. Check motor and battery connectors for continuity and any sign of heat or melted plastic. Check operation and resistance of the brake unit. Most controllers in mobility scooters are quite reliable, so always eliminate all other possibilities before looking at the controller. Good luck.

Invacare HMV 220 3 wheel scooter. Good battery, Why won't it go?

hi, the clicking sounds like the brake and if that's the case your throttle pot etc is working okay. check the connections from the controller to the motor, putting 12v on the motor does not prove it's okay resistance wise for the controller, it looking for about 0.2 to 1.5 ohms...

if that all proves okay then i look at the controller ...what is the name of the mobility scooter ?

Regards
Rob

Battery discharges after 1 block. They are new batteries.

Did you charge the batteries before you used them? if not you need to charge overnite to build up a good charge. If after an overnite charge you are showing full charge but you still get poor performance then you need to return the batteries for new ones. Remember just because they said they are new doesn't mean good They could have sat on the shelf for 6 months or more. Hope this helps

I need a batery

The Zoom 220 takes two 12AH(Amp-hour) batteries. They can be purchased locally and at the following site:

http://www.monsterscooterparts.com/

Check out the following link for pictures and instructions to install (Page 42 to 43)

http://manuals.monsterscooterparts.com/mobility/Invacare/manual-invacare-hmv-220.pdf

Its easy to remove the 9 screws holding the battery box together and install the batteries. To save on labor I recommend you do it yourself. Hope this helps.

Check to see if the scooter is in freewheel mode. To know if the batteries are bad you need to charge them for 10 - 12 hours and then have them tested with a load tester.

It is possible the the battery could be damaged after being stored for that length of time. If it was wasn't completely charged before storage, or if it was exposed to extreme temperatures (even for a short amount of time) you may need to find a replacement battery. http://www.batteryinternational.com/electric-scooter-batteries.html should have the battery you need.
