I would think that you have a joystick problem and the only fix is to have it replaced. If Medicare paid for your chair then they will pay 80% of the repair cost. Contact your provider where you got the chair and ask if they can repair it for you or call Roadrunner Mobility @ 1-800-467-2668 to check on your eligibility for a repair and they will send a tech out to check the chair Hope this helps
I suggest you print this out and keep it handy.

The VSI has a feature that enables you to
lock your power chair to prevent unauthorized use.
To lock the VSI:

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:
