Any electromechanical device requires occasional troubleshooting. However, most problems that arise can be
solved with a bit of thought and common sense. Many of these problems occur because the batteries are not fully
charged or because the batteries are worn down and can no longer hold a charge.
DIAGNOSTIC BEEP CODES
Diagnostic beep codes help you to perform basic troubleshooting quickly and easily. A diagnostic beep code will
sound in the event one of the conditions listed below develops. After you perform the solution associated with the
diagnostic beep code, your Sport Scooter should resume normal operation.
NOTE: Your Sport Scooter will not run unless the beep code condition is resolved and the Sport Scooter
has been turned off and then turned back on.

What if all the systems on my Sport Scooter seem to be dead?
n Make certain that the key is in the on position.
n Check that the batteries are fully charged. See VI. Batteries and Charging.
n Push in the main circuit breakers reset button. See V. Your Sport Scooter.
n Make certain that both battery harnesses are firmly connected to the electronics module and to the battery
