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

shows a full charge, but my Scooter
does not move when I push the

brakes are disengaged and all power to the transaxle is cut.
