mobility scooter shite


Recommended Posts

Posted

seemed topical so I thought I'd give it a go :P

 

I bought a BEC 3 wheel mobility scooter on the bay for almost no money whatsoever. I bought it for the following reasons

 

- to piss off the misses "what do you want that for?"

- to canabalise for bits to bolt to the kids real-life-toys jeep (main reason 8) )

- to motor down to the local co-op and run into the heels of some elderly grumpy bastards that do it to me every time I step into that miserable place.

 

trouble is that while it did work fine it now doesn't

 

Fully charged it, works for about 2 metres which compared to a 7 mile range is a bit shit and then cuts out with loads of flashing lights and so forth.

 

I have googled my fingers to bloody stumps trying to find manuals / expertise without any success.

 

I have pulled the console apart and it is a real bodge job of electrics. I really could do with a wiring diagram to help me debug it. Anyone in shiteville help please?

 

p.s. I enjoyed scoota's posts - shame when anyone leaves a forum because of what someone else implied. hopefully he'll be back in 10 minutes rather than diving arse first into pissed on heads

My Son-In-Law repairs Mobility aids and instals all sorts of kit in homes etc. I can ask him what he knows. Do you have and model specific numbers that are on it? And build plates or serial numbers? Approximate buiild year?

All I know is that it is a BEC sterling 3 wheel scooter. I have been over it with a fine tooth combe and cannot find any serial or part numbers.

 

Any help is going to be good. I have a feeling that one of the batteries is fubar. they are wired in series so 24v is order of the day. I have another 12v gel battery that I will try tomorrow

It dying with all sorts of flashing lights would suggest duff batteries - can you lob a multimeter over them and see what you're getting after a full charge, and after the 2 metre rampage?

I thought of this when I read the title to this thread

Made by AC, who it is alleged also ued to make Cobra's

There was an old geezer round our way who used to get himself, his woman, dog & a bale of hay into his.

This is not some kind of myth,

I used to work at a gentleman's outfitters, he used to pull up outside, sound his horn & was served in the street.

I used to see him & his woman dealing with their horses on my way home.
