I came across your videos by mistake so glad I found them I didn't realise there was so much to go wrong with the mobility scooter, so now I'm addicted to Your channel which I thoroughly enjoy and also the way you point out the things that are wrong and you don't make it look too difficult well done to you
Thank you for making the videos that you do I have had different mobility scooters which have always broken down and have been unfixable I now have a new mobility scooter on the motability scheme and its fantastic
Your a kind and honest person and I thank you for that
Thank you Tom, please keep them coming. They are so help full for me.
I'm slowly but surely catching up on your videos, having become a mobility scooter user, very straight, and well put forward information from yourself especially interested on the boot scooter as I have one of the gogo sport for shopping and a ranger 8xl for more challenging days lol.
Thank you. Learnt a lot already 👍
Very nicely done, thanks.
Great video, as always!!😊
Thanks Tom Good video.
I did that once by accident on a Pride and it messed up the transaxle thank god I had an extended warranty .
Thanks for making the videos mate very enjoyable and helpful you are a clever man 👍
Thanks Michael mind you I’m glad something has stuck in my brain 🧠 been doing this for over 30 years 🥱
Great video, thanks
Enjoy your RUclips fixes. If you every do a video on turning off the reversing buzzer of a 12 month old TGA zest I would appreciate it. Keep up the good work in keeping our costs down with the useful tips
Thank you for the video I need to order a switch from you .
Thank you for the video, it was very helpful.
My wife has a GoGo Elite Sport, which got caught in the rain for quite a while and stopped working.
The battery box was full of water, so I dried it out and bought new batteries for it.
The whole machine has been inside a warm room in the house for a good couple of months, so it should have all dried out by now.
Thanks to your video, I tested the batteries and fuses and all work fine. Like you, I followed the trail up to the main power cable under the plastic facia cover on the front of the machine and power comes through at just over 27v.
This is where I'm now stuck.
I believe, like on your video, the problem will be the ignition barrel accessing water but I couldn't see what that yellow wire you used was or where to put each end of it to by-pass the ignition, like you did.
Please could you clarify what wire I need to do this and where/how to test if it is, indeed, the ignition at fault?
I will also need a new front facia which houses the horn button, as this has broken.
Kind regards and thank you.
Thank you Tom, I have just bought a scooter . I wondered what happens after using in the rain.
Not much but It depends on make and model I would recommend using a waterproof cover if it heavy rain 🌧
A heart warming thx to my Mentor Tom his help as been invaluble Im now up and runnin thx 2 Tom.
another great helpful video mate 👩🦼👍
I often wondered if rain entering through the ignition lock would be a problem so this is very interesting. Is this the reason that the key provided with the Go-go has a plastic shroud around it so that water can't get into the lock itself? Obviously if you're using a simple key without this plastic surround, as shown in the video, water could get it in.
Hi mate love your videos, hoping you can help me. I've got a mercury regatta mobility scooter, but lately its started to jerk when I go forward. Hope you can help in some way and because it's the same problem as my wifes scooter a rascal850, we were told it's the main controller board can it be the same for my mercury regatta. Thank you
I had no power and I put the reset and now it fine
When ordering a new S controller do i use the number on the top thanks
what about running through puddles to clean the tyres would that cause a cut out.?
I can hear you now
Could you make a video on using m18 milwaukee batteries? I put the the m18's in and the scooter just beeps for over voltage.
Lol lol I don’t understand why u would want to use those batteries 🔋 2 x 18 would give u 36 volts our scooters run on 24. Plus the current will not take you far lol 😂
I have an Odessey Drive tat does not go. I have checked all connections and still nothing. When I turn the key to on position I hear a faint buzz sound . All the lights horn and turn signals work but the battery gauge does not light or does it not move. Any suggestions?
Hi just found your channel. My dad has just bought a roma dallas. In the manual it says when charging there is constant orange light. Only a red power light and green light on charger .any idea what it means thank you
May be a different charger issues than what’s in the owner’s manual. Red usually charging green fully charged
@@tomjacques4 many thanks I thought maybe orange if batteries are faulty
Can water get inside the motor and what to do about that.
Nope it’s a sealed unit mind you oil can get it if the axle bearing fails then it’s KAPUT.
Can you tell me can l put a big motor in shopper scooter
I’ve never done that before but I can’t see a reason why not but would not recommend it
Controller is programmed to the original motor so will jot out more current to a larger motor
A friend of mine asked me to look at his scooter. It is A dynamic model DK-PMB40, S/No l11102404. The flash code has 8 blinks. As I can't stand arrogant people most of the people I know have little money for repair, so they come to me when anything needs fixing. Any help figuring it out will be much appreciated.
I can't hear you. Maybe try a microphone. That's the chair I have 😊
I am not saying I could not send you anything for the help just let me know.
So I have perfect hearing but you're your volume is down very low I can't hear you
Sound is shit mate.T800Aust
