Scooter stopped while going up an incline. just slowed down and stopped. now when activated it just make a ratcheting sound. same after charging overnight

I hope you will get an answer soon. You can buy Provigil to reduce extreme daytime sleepiness. It also helps to bring alertness to your body.

Battery not charged or ng.

Possible cause, throttle pot this causes surging.

This is usually due to the battery "jumping" off the contacts when you go over a bump in the pathway. Put a RUBBER door stop between the battery and the seat post. This fixed mine for all but the huge potholes. Had this fix for 4 years

i have never personally worked on a mobility scooter myself but i do know that my grandfathers had the same problem and his gear sprocket had worn down so when he was on flat ground it was fine but when he would go up inclines and it needed more power it would just spin and barely make it but this was also ten years ago so idk if there even close to anything the same anymore

You may need to replace the battery even though it is charging. It sounds like a bad battery or the motor may be overloaded.

PCassels Check the brake located on the rear of the motor. If the brake is dragging on the motor housing it will cause heat and slow the scooter down. If you can, remove the brake from the motor but leave the wires connected. Tie the brake up so it won't fall and see if that makes a difference in speed and heat reduction. Don't overcharge the batteries Charge overnite or until the green light on the charger comes on indicating a full charge. Never charge more than 10 hours for this scooter. Now with the brake not on the motor the scooter will not have brakes so watch out on ramps and steep inclines. If it is only a few months old then it is still under warranty and you need to contact the provider that sold the scooter to get it repaired correctly Hope this helps

One of the batteries out of the two are prob bad. This is common.

sounds like your catalilic converter is plugged up with the information you have given me,That is part of your exhaust system

All scooters have a protection system built in to prevent burning up the motor, and the user, should the scooter overheat. It sounds like yours overheated. If the temp. outside was warm to hot, and your weight is near the weight limit for the scooter, and you are taxing the motors over a hill, or unstable terrain, then the scooter goes into "limp home mode", or just enough to get you a bit aways, and then it will turn off. After a few minutes to cool off, it will go again, but shut down fairly quickly because it takes a spell to let the whole transaxle-motor assembly to get cool.

Check your weight, and anything else you may be carrying with you on the scooter. Check the terrain, and incline you are going against. Throttle down for all these occassions. If you overloaded the system at some point, then you may have overheated the brushes. Remove them (2) with a standard screwdriver and see if the copper coil is still flexible and springy. If not, replace it/them.

The damage may already be done, so it may need a new motor/transaxle assembly. An expensive proposition I'm afraid.
