Indeed. Thanks from East Texas. Well-done!
Very informative video Tom. Many thanks 😊
Thank you for a wonderful video
Thank you Tom, yes it is very informative please keep them coming.
Hi Tom, love your videos, so refreshing to have someone explain the ins and outs of these machines, I have found here in New Zealand it appears to be some sort of closed shop. Asking the local supplier for information or even getting spares (even a set of brushes) over the counter is nigh impossible, however the supplier is happy to pick up the machine for repair thus adding to the cost of what could often be a handyman fix. Cheers "well done that man"
Another helpful tip and a great video sir 👨🦼👍
Very enlightening video
You are very good at what you do I'm getting in scooter repair business myself and am very excited to see your work thank you so much
thanks Gary
@@tomjacques4 I have a similar problem I turn the key it beeps once and shows full battery power however when pressing the go lever there is nothing and no click from the motor I checked the brakes and they look good still and when the hand break is off it moves freely I have taken out circuit board and everything seems ok I have no idea what is wrong
@@jesusislord-ht1nj what’s the make and model and any flash codes?
Great video!
Very good video, and another thing learnt. Thank you.
good work sir
Thanks I have just fixed my wife’s scooter 👍👌
Tom love watching you at work and now I have a machine that's just broken down old Shoprider Delux, I will have a look myself as not too much lifting involved. Was juddering before it stopped but was told new brushes were fitted so wondering if it's not been cleaned out and may be full of carbon dust or wonder if he's fitted the wrong grade of carbon brush?. Will soon find out.
I always enjoy watching your videos I always look forward to seeing when you come out with new videos
Hi Tom, thanks a lot, with your information I managed to fix mine. So keep on sending us videos.
.
How great this has been!
Do you have any videos on the higher end E-Wheels scooters?
This video is really interesting. Not that I can do this work but at least I now know what to look for.
Great videos!! I have a Pride Jazzy Select GT powerchair. Brand new batteries fully charged, Joystick was tested on ANOTHER chair and works perfectly, I have power TO the joystick on "MY" chair but it will NOT power up. Is it possible that the control box is bad despite it sending power to the joystick? Thanks for any help.
do think this same issues
Can you share where you purchased just the brake assembly? Everywhere I look only sells the motor/break assembly together. Here's my scooter. Brake Assembly for the Golden Companion I & II (GC240, GC340, & GC440)
Hi send us a picture of your brake Assy. To nithsdale.wheelchairs@btinternet.com
Tom do you work on Quingo's I have a problem with the tiller Barbara
What type of grease is used in the transaxle?
Do you ever encounter a scooter complaint where the throttle is the issue? I had somone that said that the scooter would not stop and kept going. I checked the throttle and nothing was binding! This is on a
Pride Victory 10
model. The rental customer swears that it would not stop. I tested everything. There are no fault codes. Inside the tiller there is a plate that seperates the harness from the throttle and that checked out good.
I am thinking the guest is not telling me something and trying to blame the scooter as the fault. Unless you can share something that I don't know?
What a very informative video. I have a Invacare Comet 4W with a similar fault. Not hearing the relay operating when attempting to drive off. Will check the function tomorrow and if the brake micro switch is faulty is it possible to replace only the micro switch and do you sell this type please?
Yes yes sell them
www.nithsdale-wheelchairs.com/prods/11441/micro-switch.html
Hi Tom, Thank you for your reply please can I ask another question regarding Invacare 4W? I checked the continuity of the micro switch and reading 30 ohms. Relay in the box doesn’t operate when attempting to drive forward/reverse and the brake remains on. Any advise would be very much appreciated please. Regards, Brian
Ordered Zipr mobility scooter from Zipr company in state of Washington. Received it in reasonable time. After a half block of travel it locked up. Have chased entire electrical system from front to back; all electrical work is normal, except cannot get the transaxle portion to activate. Suspect that it may be micro switch on the brake system, or more. Trying to order and replace the micro switch to see if that will make a difference. Have you any suggestions of what might be the problem, and how do I pursue it? I have tried multiple times to get assistance from the Zipr company and cannot communicate with them other than through email--"unsatisfactory".
Yep it’s always best to buy local, may be a little more expensive but after sales service would be better.
Can you tell me were abouts the brushes are in a royale 4 are please as I'm sure they need replaced I've heard there is four so I n3ed to do it so need help Angela
Brushes are installed inside the motor. What makes you think you need new ones
Hi i have a leo sport scooter i removed the tiller locking big knob and a big spring shot out i cand find a way for it to be assembled can you tell me please how to reassemble the spring, thank you
Hi, I’ve borrowed a friends scooter several times over the years and it’s supposed to have had a new battery last year. I’ve had it on charge and tested it and it’s showing 24v. However when you switch on the ignition all the lights light up, go off and then all the lights including the power light just keep flashing. It’s happened before but it has cured itself but it’s not doing now. I’ve checked the contacts and sprayed everything with contact cleaner. It’s a ugo light scooter. Any ideas please?
Regards,
Jon.
My transaxel is broke and I only had Mt scooter 11 months it was brand new as well
Hi,my name is Brian,I have a pride xl celebrity deluxe. Just put new batteries in. Took it for a run into town(3km away). The scooter slowly slowed down and then stopped. After a couple of minutes it started again and was able to drive home without fault. Any ideas what I can check? Cheers Brian
Thx for uploading videos it help to learn,it's wonderful job👍👍👍. Could you advise me if I transport the elec scooter or a wheelchair abroad which takes 8-9weeks by sea (out of the UK), should I disconnect the battery to protect its battery life, is it OK or just leave it.
Mmmmm fully charge them before and then disconnect. Better be safe.
@@tomjacques4 thanks
Hi, how do u recommend liablety of GTM mobility scooter also do u have a charger for it, the charger comes with it very old like a matel block.
Or can we use other scooter chargers as well if the pin fits in?
Regards
@@MrLalla2020 as long as it is 24v and plug fits , yes
@@MrLalla2020 That metal block old style charger is probably higher output than the cheap plastic laptop charger type.
Better for charging large capacity batteries quickly.
Purchased a used Pride GoGo scooter, seems to be in decent used condition. Scooter runs as supposed to when lever in Drive position. I do notice that when the lever is in Drive, you can manually push it as when you have it in the Neutral position. The brake does not engage when in Drive and stationary, or when the scooter is off and in Drive. Is there an adjustment possible?
Is the brake connected
Where is this place?
HI, we have a King Cobra will not go over 5mph we have replaced head pod and controller but still will not go faster than 5mph, we have used the programmer all set to 100% still only 5mph? any suggestions,
Just watched one of your videos because I have a problem,my kymco geo8 I was on way home a d it started to slowdown rapidly. It went to a crawl then stopped. Operated the lever to put it into freewheeling as I was on a downward slope and it wouldn't move. Operated the lever on and off,still on luck. I had to call my wife to help struggle to push it home. Batteries fully charged and not yet 1 year old.please can you guide to a possible fault.
Check all connections do continuity on motor and brake
I've got a drive envoy 8 Mobility scooter. When I went out the last few times, after a few miles it slows and the brake sticks on, even if you put it into free wheel. Any idea what this might be. Thanks in advance
Sounds like the brake I would test it if I where you
I have a Pride Odyssey chair and the motor control module quit working and they discontinued it with no replacement. You you have any ideas about what to do?
Send us pictures of the controller that is faulty please we may have one you never know
Thank you for this video, I'm currently working on my mother inlaws scooter which has power lights on but won't move. I checked the throttle and all the wiring but I'll check this out tomorrow and fingers crossed this is the issue!
Keep at it
@@tomjacques4 Thank you, so I've been having a better look at it today and tested all the wiring loom, the electric break. I even powered up the motor with a power supply and everything seems to be working fine.
I think it might be the Scooter Controller but unsure if I should spend the £100 to replace it. I don't suppose you have any tips on testing the old one?
@@ThomasShaneHynes not really. But if there is a problem on any other part of the scooter the controller will not work check throttle etc.
Good video this. My mother has a mobility scooter and I need to learn what to look for if something goes wrong. She wants me to have a look at it to make sure it's working OK because they are going on a cruise in march, but the scooter does work ok. Is there anything I SHOULD check, because last time they went, they had trouble getting up the gangway up to the ship, any advice would be grately appreciated 🙏
When was it last used check voltage etc all the way to the ignition
@@tomjacques4 I'll be testing it tomorrow for time
@@tomjacques4 there is power, full charge on the cell, but i think the battery has been overcharged I.e left on charge. The power comes on, then the indicator lights drop when I press the forward lever, do i switch off and on and its back to normal to repeat what i just described. It's a pathfinder scooter.....
@@mtadave6702 is the electric brake disengaging when you press to drive forward
@@tomjacques4 no, but the power indicator drops suddenly. I'm thinking it's the cells that have been overcharged.
My elite Traveller goes along and stops suddenly,I have to put it in neutral then back in drive before goes again and maybe will go considerable distance or it might only go a few feet.
How do I solve this problem?
Check the connection from the back section to the front could be worn. Or slack also check the wires too and from the connections to the motor and brake
My wife's scooter keeps going slow even when it's fully charged, the last time it was used it was working fine but only 4 days later it was moving really lowly, I removed the brake to see if it was binding but it made no difference, do you have any idea to what could be causing it?
I need to blow up my scooter tyre but there´s no room for the foot pump connector. What adapter do I need and where to obtain one please.
Usually it’s the same as a car. Maybe the tyre is that flat that the tube has moved internally. If us can’t get access you will need to dismantle it and refit it.
hello a friend of mine drives an invacare pro can this vehicle be made a little faster the scooter drives 10 km / h it is very often on the move so 3 km / h more would not be bad! Thanks for the information!
Should be 12km 8mph is the max in the UK 🇬🇧
Do you sell shop rider brakes, 🤔only I have been on eBay and can’t find any.
Hi yes we sure do lots of different ones best send us a picture of your brake to tomjacques@btinternet.com or WhatsApp 07713297096
Problem with my scooter I have a pride Ruby scooter and I can't get it when you turn the key on there's no juice got power everywhere else but when you turn the key on it don't turn on
I ran over something and my scooter will take a full charge go two blocks then starts to act like it's out of charge so the only way it will go is two go backwards stop and go forward very slowly I need help
Would need an engineer my friend sounds odd. Could be the throttle pot out if centre. But that would not have been caused by hitting something. So sounds odd.
@@tomjacques4 could it be something to do with the brushes or the motor itself my mate
Where can I buy throttle pots ?

When I put my ZT4 Mobility scooter on charge the charger pack lead box is on green and when I turn the scooter on it’s not powering up please can you help me
Thank you for your videos, i hope you can help i changed a controller on my prism scooter now the controls are in reverse i press forward and the scooter goes backward and visa versa have i done the wiring wrong ?
I presume the new controller was not of an identical scooter.
Ca
@@tomjacques4 I was told it was, to rectify the problem I swapped the wires around now it works fine
@@grahambenning4047 well done 👍🏻
Hi all, Pride Colt Persuit 5 hours on the clock working perfectly charged the batteries and put it away in my dry greenhouse, came to use it after two months ( nothing ) fitted brand new batteries switched it on no screen no noises nothing, at the charging point there is 25.3volts, at the ignition switch there is 17v, the 6 fuses are all fine, but when you remove the 10a top battery fuse and put it back in there is a momentary squeak sound and a spark as the fuse goes in.
The key switch is working, the circuit breaker is in the in position, and the middle No 1 connector plug is fully home. 🤔🤥🤷🏼♂️ any ideas.
,Hello I have a Go Go ultra, when I put the switch on seems like I got power all the light comes on but it doesn't run. I put a new battery a still doesn't run.
What’s the flash code ?
hi can i install a 6mph or even an 8mph motor to a 4mp scooter
Yep you sure can but not worth the hassle you will only make a little difference as the axle is paired with the motor as well as the on board controller is with the motor.
Scout Scooter dashboard light flash
my cabin car stop ramdom sometime take time moveing agein and stop for good if change leaver you self it will move but dose click when hit throttle
Ive got a similar issue with my mothers scooter. Everything seems to work as it should. Parked up next day wouldn’t move beeps in reverse just won’t move.
But if you push it while pushing forward it moves slowly as if the motor is going slow or being stopped by the break.
Checked the battery and all good so maybe it’s this brake! I’ll have a look at this later thanks for the informative video
Hello. My shoprider traveso mobility scooter won't move but i can hear the motor running and speeding up but the scooter will not move forwards or backwards. I've put 2 brand new batteries on it fully charged them but like i say i can hear the motor speeding up but the scooter will not move. Sometimes it will move forwards and backwards but then stop's and i can still hear the motor building up speed. What is or could the problem be ?
Have you had any of the rear wheels removed recently?
No. Could it be that the bar's in the wheel missing that could be the problem. And i have a problem with my TGA BREEZE S3 Scooter that won't switch on, i have put 2 new fuse's on a 15 amp and a 60 amp but still the digital screen won't come on. There's charge in the battery's, and I have tried the charging socket with my electric meter and it come's up 53 to 54. What could that problem be please. Many Thank's kev
@@tomjacques4 meant could be the problem
@@kevzee oh the motor is spinning and the woodruff keys are in place then check the motor coupling between motor and axle
@@tomjacques4 the two woodruff key's i.e the bar's are missing mate. i have some replacement one's being delivered. So the woodruff key's would i take it stop the scooter from moving then ? i've tightened the bolt's up on the wheel and when i press the forward lever the bolt's end up coming loose and then just end up spinning around and therefore the scooter won't move at all but the but i can hear the motor turning. Many Thank's kev
Здравствуйте
can you take off the electric break and it still run ?
You sure can but you will have to still have the wires connected
@@tomjacques4 is the wires are disconnected will it not run ?
@@ethanbaylis5204 has to be plugged in . But can be off of the motor
My Scooter will not charge. Have blinking orange light. Shop said it was either my batteries or charger. Installed new Batteries and light started blinking again with No charger attached.???? Any suggetions
Hi can you send video of what’s happening
@@tomjacques4 i dont have a video but will get one in the morning and send it to you.
And all I did to it was plugged my phone charger into the steering column I unplugged the steering column and plugged it from the steering column and then the next one no one outside to go turn it on it wouldn't come on
