VIII. BASIC TROUBLESHOOTING

Any electromechanical device occasionally requires some troubleshooting. However, most of the prob-

lems that may arise can usually 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.

What if all of my PMV systems appear to be “dead?”

 Ensure the key is fully inserted in the key switch.

 Ensure the batteries are fully charged.

 Push in the main circuit breaker reset button.

 Ensure the 9-pin connector is firmly attached.

 Ensure both battery harnesses are firmly connected to the electronic controller and to the battery ter-

minals.

What if my PMV’s battery condition meter shows a full charge, but my PMV does not move when

I push the throttle control lever?

Ensure your PMV was not left in freewheel mode. (Pull up on the freewheel lever to restore normal opeation.)

NOTE: When the freewheel lever is pushed down, your PMV’s brakes are disengaged and all power to

the transaxle is cut.

What if my PMV’s main circuit breaker trips repeatedly?

 Charge your PMV’s batteries more frequently.

 Have both of your PMV’s batteries load tested by your authorized Pride Provider.

 Obtain a battery load tester at most automotive parts stores; follow the directions supplied with the

load tester.

What if my PMV’s battery condition meter dips way down and the motor surges or hesitates when

I press the throttle control lever?

 Fully charge your PMV’s batteries.

 Have your authorized Pride Provider load test each battery.

 Obtain a battery load tester at most automotive parts stores; follow the directions supplied with the

load tester.

If you experience any problems with your PMV that you are unable to resolve, immediately contact your

authorized Pride Provider for information, maintenance, and service.
