TROUBLE-SHOOTING CENTRAL COMMAND NOTE: This machine is operated by a sophisticated electronic “controller” that has many fail safes within it. It self-analyzes problems and flashes a four-digit alpha-numeric code of what is wrong in the LCD window. Most of these codes require a technician attention. You should not attempt repairs you are unfamiliar with, especially if you are not authorized to work on this equipment. 1. 7601 and 7602 ERROR: Scrubdeck current over load.
5. 7700: Vacuum Motor circuit is open. 6. Throttle ERROR: You pressed the foot pedal before turning on the key. Turn OFF the key and try again, leaving foot off of the pedal. 7. 2C00 and 2C01 ERROR: Low voltage warning. Voltage has dropped down below the minimum required to operate the machine. If you wait a few minutes, the Batteries may come up in voltage, allowing you to drive very slowly to the recharge station.
