TOTAL LOSS OF POWER - Mobility Scooter Fault Finding - Always the SIMPLE stuff!

In today's video we're fixing a Pride Colt Deluxe mobility scooter. The customer reported that it suddenly stopped working and we were therefore called out to sort the scooter out.
We noticed there was oxidization on the main dashboard panel which had me suspicious of what the fault was, turns out we were right and were able to get the scooter working again.
We didn't have a replacement part to sort this scooter out but came up with a solution that allowed this customer to use their scooter again.

    Thanks for the informative video! Went to the key switch first and that was the problem! Used a key switch for a Ford tractor which I got from the local feed store. It was a perfect fit.

    This is a brilliant video - thank you so much! I've been looking for a video to see how to get to the key barrel to check for continuity. So seeing you access it from below is very helpful!

    I did check the barrel but mine is okay. I heard you mention the wiring... Do the connectors disconnect on these? Any connector in particular? The battery packs have power going into the tower unit as checked with a multimeter. So just wondering where to check next... I haven't taken the floor pan up yet as was hoping it may be something simple. Just no battery / power light display and nothing is working so I just hope it's not the controller 😢

    I'm in California and wish you were near by. I have had my scooter for a long time, but have used it once or twice a year, maybe a total of 15 times. I need to start using it more. I bought a new battery and charged it. Suddenly, the scooter turns on fine when i plug it in, but doesn't work on battery. I've tried sever easy things after watching yt videos. Fuse is good. It beeps 10 quick times when power is turned on. Thoughts?

    Nice route of elimination process! I've gone through everything that I can think of to try and fix a Solax Genie but its still not moving. Its has an 8 beep error code after pulling accelerator which for this ecu says ' Motor voltage fault, so I've checked the cables to the motor which are fine after battery testing the motor and checking resistance and has secure connection to the ecu. Could this error come up if the ecu was faulty and just not putting out any power to the motor? I just don't want to fork out for a new ecu just for the sake of elimination. Hope you can help, thanks

    Hi. I would say they would hold 30 amps and may be rated to 50 amps even. If you are replacing them then I would advise going for the 50 rating just to be safe. These scooters have decent weight limits and can handle decent size hills too so I’d be surprised if it’s rated any lower than 30amp.

    My mum's got the same scooter, when she rides the power light goes to red when you let go it climbs back up to green. Is this a battery issue. So all lights green but when you ride it they drop to red. Is there to much power being pulled from batteries? Any help would be amazing

    Check the mirrors aren’t retaining the dash if it’s coming off from the top. I’d assume top dash needs to come off before pulling main front cover off. I think there’s a separate control board located in the dash / front section that manages lights , etc Failing that try disconnecting the lights switch on the dash to see if it resolves , if this turns out to be the issue just a case of replacing switch

    You should only use 24v on a 24v scooter, nothing more than that as you’ll run into issues with the controller plus a whole lot more hassle on top. Keep to the original voltage , you can however increase the size of the batteries if there’s space to do it, as long as they stay 12v each

    Total power loss? My first check: fuses. Nex: check batteries at all locations. Last: chase voltage through wires, continuity test on ignition switch, or resistance.
