When I drive forward and move the joystick to center the chair is still moving for the few fit before stops.

You are in locked mode. try turning the joystick on and pushing the horn twice. or if that did not work try turning the joystick on and pushing gimbal forward until it beeps and then back until it beeps. should be unlocked, scrolling up and down will stop and you can drive.

Turn on Joystick and push horn twice, you are in locked mode. If this didn't work then turn Joystick on push gimbal forward until you hear a beep, then move the gimbal back until it beeps you are now unlocked. Gimbal= what you push to go left right forward or back on a joystick.

If nothing looks broken on the joystick the batteries may have become disconnected when the chair hit the ground. Check all wiring connections on the chair. You can test to see if there is voltage getting to the joystick with a voltmeter.

Double check to be sure drive levers are fully engaged. Go down and up a few times. If problem persists have Hoveround come and check it out. One of the drive motors may have shorted out when you continued driving with gravel in the wheel.

Hello Debbie Waters,if you contact a Wheelchair/Scooter Repair Shop.Give them what you see as to (WHY) & ask for a price on the Part.I hope this has helped,Colin.

If chair has a tilt, recline or lift seat on it it may be going into lock-out mode on its own due to a limit switch fault. If you don't have any of these options then I suggest you remove the joystick, controller and any wire harness between the two and send them to a shop like mine for repair.
The usual lock out light chase is from left to right - not right to left so this is suspect of a different issue.

did you put it in lockout accidentally? try this! turn off chair, press and hold the on button till a beep is heard, push and hold the joystick forward till a beep is heard, then pull back and hold joystick till beep is heard, turn off, and turn on. it should work now?

contario With little information other than what you are telling me your problem seems to be the joystick. If the chair's joystick will make the motors turn your chair but won't go forward or back then the problem is in the joystick and will have to replaced. Sorry hope this helps

The flashing will come on if the chair is in neutral or if the charger is still plugged in when you turn it on. Place the chair in neutral (freewheel) by shifting the levers out, then place firmly back into drive.

Unplug from the charger and it should fire up. Sometimes, the chair will also go into "sleep mode".
Check your owners manual for this. Note, some have sleep mode potential but it's not in the manual, and if someone inadvertantly hits the right series of motions with the joystick, you can inadvertantly put it to sleep. Try turning the chair off, wait three seconds and power back up, then immediately press the "horn" button. This wakes up most of them. Others you need to power off, turn back on and then move the joystick forward, backward then forward again.

Good luck
