To inspect or replace the motor brushes:
1. Remove the seat and the body shroud. See VI. Disassembly.
2. Unscrew the motor brush caps. See figure 24.
3. Remove the brushes.
4. Inspect the brushes for wear. See figure 25.
5. Replace the brushes if necessary. Contact your authorized Pride provider for replacement brushes.
CORRECTIVE MAINTENANCE
If the battery condition meter does not light up:
n Check the harness connections. Make sure they are tight.
n Check the circuit breaker. Reset it if necessary.
n Check the battery connections.
If the above checks prove normal, you can load test the batteries with a battery load tester. These testers are
available at automotive parts stores. Disconnect both batteries before load testing and follow the directions that
came with the load tester. If either one of the battery fails the load test, replace both of them. If your Jet 3 still does
not power up, contact your authorized Pride provider.
IX. CARE AND MAINTENANCE
MOTOR BRUSHES
The electric motors that power your Jet 3 use carbon brushes. These brushes are susceptible to wear over a long
period of time. If worn, the motor brushes run poorly or not at all.
CAUTION! If inspection determines excessive wear on the brushes, they must be replaced or
motor damage will result. Failure to maintain the brushes could void the warranty.
