Check your tire inflation and treads to make sure they can grip the floor/ground without slipping. Make sure that any keystock/keylock needed is installed on the axle, sometimes they slip out. Are your batteries fully charged and in good condition? Are you over the weight limit for the power chair?
Is there any noise or vibration coming from the power chair as you operate it? A grinding sound may indicate bad bearings in the caster wheels and cause problems in steering. A chirping sound may indicate a bad motor, they may be losing power and are not able to move the power chair evenly.
If your insurance purchased the power chair for you, they may also cover the repairs; contact them for information.
Good luck!

THE BATTERY LIGHT CONTINUSLY SCROLLS FROM LEFT TO RIGHT AND CHAIR WILL NOT MOVE

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.

How to unlock Jazzy Select chair so it can start up and run

Turn on the PWC
Push the joystick forward and hold for 2 seconds or until you hear a chirp.
Push the joystick backward and hold for 2 seconds or until you hear a chirp.
Release and there should be a long beep tone, signaling that it is unlocked. Since there are different joystick controllers on these chairs and I don't know exactly which one you have this is my best guess.

Forgot how to unlock power chair

This is the procedure to unlock the controller on a Pride Jazzy:

Locking/Unlocking the VSI

The VSI has a feature that enables you to

lock your power chair to prevent unauthorized use.

To lock the VSI:

1. With the VSI switched on, press and hold the on/off key. After 1 second, the VSI should beep.

2. Release the on/off key.

3. Push the joystick to the full forward position until the VSI beeps.

4. Pull the joystick to the full rearward position until the VSI beeps.

5. Release the joystick. There should be a long beep.

6. The VSI is now locked.

To unlock the VSI:

1. Press the on/off key and power on the VSI. The maximum speed/profile indicator should ripple up and down.

2. Push the joystick to the full forward position until the VSI beeps.

3. Pull the joystick to the full rearward position until the VSI beeps.

4. Release the joystick. There should be a long beep.

5. The VSI is now unlocked.
NOTE: If the above procedure fails to either lock or unlock the VSI, contact your authorized Pride Provider.

Don't run light go from left to right on a "Jazzy

carly that indication is the charging inhibit mode and the joystick still thinks the charger is still plugged in. Unfortunately there is no quick fix for this and usually requires a joystick or controller replacement. I would have your provider check it for you and maybe try another joystick from another chair to see if that fixes the error if it does then you'll have to replace the joystick. If Medicare paid for your chair then they will pay for most of the replacement cost Hope this helps

Somehow I have locked my Jazzy 6 Select Electric wheelchair. I know you need to push the trottle but I really don't know what to do.

Try This:

To unlock the power chair.
1. Use the on / off button to switch the control system on. The maximum speed / profile indicator will be rippling up and down.

2. Deflect the joystick forward until the control system beeps.

3. Deflect the joystick in reverse until the control system beeps.

4. Release the joystick, there will be a long beep.

5. The power chair should now be unlocked.

Hope it works.

Jazzy 1113 will not operate!

The click you hear when you activiate the joystick is the electric solenoid on the automatic brakes going on, and then off when you push then release the joystick. This is normal. If it isn't moving, check to see if the free-wheel levers are in gear or in neutral. If you can push the chair, you are in neutral and activating the joystick will just release the brake and run the motors. Turn the two levers to the drive position and then it should take you where you want to go.

You can go to Pride Mobility's website to download an owners manual for your chair here

Good luck.
