VIII. BASIC TROUBLESHOOTING
What if all the systems on my PMV seem to be “dead”?
! Make certain that the key is in the “on” position.
! Ensure the freewheel lever is in the drive position.
! Check that the batteries are fully charged.
! Make certain that all battery terminal connections are secured.
! Be sure the power down timer feature hasn’t been activated. See VI. “Operation.”
! Check all fuses.
DIAGNOSTIC FLASH CODES
The diagnostic flash codes for your PMV are designed to help you perform basic troubleshooting quickly and
easily. A diagnostic flash code will flash from the status LED in the event one of the conditions listed below
develops.
NOTE: Your PMV will not run unless the flash code condition is resolved and the PMV has been
turned off, then turned back on.
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.
FLASH CODE CONDITION SOLUTION
(1)
!
Battery voltage is too low to operate the
PMV or the charger is operating.
Charge batteries or unplug the charger power lead from
the electrical outlet.
(2)
!!
Motor disconnected. Check all connections to the motor.
(3)
!!!
Motor wiring fault. Call your authorized Pride Provider for assistance.

!!!!!!!!!
Brake fault—your PMV was left in
freewheel mode.
Turn the PMV key to the “off” position, then push th
e
manual freewheel lever to the (down) drive position
,
and restart your PMV.
(10)
!!!!!!!!!!
High battery voltage. The batteries have
been overcharged and the PMV won’t
run.
Leave the PMV turned on to drain the batteries to
a
sufficient level. If the batteries continue to overcharge
,
call your authorized Pride Provider for assistance.
WARNING! The replacement fuse must exactly match the rating of the new fuse. Failure
to use properly rated fuses may cause damage to the electrical system and may result in
personal injury.
Fuse Replacement
In the event a fuse should cease to work:
! Remove the fuse by pulling it out of its slot.
! Examine the fuse to be sure it is blown. See
figures 21 and 21A.
