IX. CARE AND MAINTENANCE
WIRING HARNESSES
Regularly check all wiring connections.
Regularly check all wiring insulation, including the charger power cord, for wear or damage.
Have your authorized Pride Provider repair or replace any damaged connector, connection, or insula-
tion that you find before using your PMV again.
PROHIBITED! Even though the PMV has passed the necessary testing requirements for
ingress of liquids, you should keep electrical connections away from sources of
dampness, including direct exposure to water or bodily fluids and incontinence. Check
electrical components frequently for signs of corrosion and replace as necessary.
MOTOR BRUSHES
The motor brushes are housed inside of the motor transaxle/assembly. They should be inspected periodi-
cally for wear by your authorized Pride Provider.
CONSOLE, CHARGER, AND REAR ELECTRONICS
Keep these areas free of moisture.
Allow these areas to dry thoroughly if they have been exposed to moisture before operating your PMV
again.
FUSE REPLACEMENT
In the event a fuse should cease to work:
1. Remove the fuse by pulling it out of its slot.
2. Examine the fuse to be sure it is blown. See figures 18 and 18A.
3. Insert a new fuse of the same rating.
WARNING! The replacement fuse must exactly match the rating of the fuse being
replaced. Failure to use properly rated fuses may cause damage to the electrical system.
NYLON LOCK NUT REPLACEMENT
Any nylon insert lock nut removed during the periodic maintenance, assembly, or disassembly of the PMV
must be replaced with a new nut. Nylon insert lock nuts should not be reused as it may cause damage to
the nylon insert, resulting in a less secure fit. Replacement nylon insert lock nuts are available at local
hardware stores or through your authorized Pride Provider.
