Control system trip on jet 3 ultra

Question edited for clarity.

You have a dead short somewhere. You need some electrical knowledge and a digital multimeter for testing. Take all the covers off. Look for wiring that has rubbed through and touching or melted. Disconnect one of the motors and replace the fuse. If it still blows, reconnect that one and disconnect the other motor. If one motor doesn't blow and the other does, you know you have a faulty motor. If neither stop the issue, then you move up to the controller and look up there. With a meter you can check for shorts within the motors, as well as grounds.

Or just take it to a Service Centre and have it repaired and serviced properly.

Mine is a jet3 ultra and I had this problem a few weeks ago and I thought it might be the batteries.
Turned out that the connection at the control arm was quite dirty.
Once cleaned it works OK ... you could try that.

Because liability issues and I do not know your mechanical ability or your limitations, this is only a recommendation.
1.remove seat
2. remove body
(be careful to the joy stick and its cable)
3. mark battery cable
4. take batteries to a wheelchair supply company
(wheelchair supply company will order correct batteries. DO NOT GET BATTERIES FOR CARS OR MOTORCYCLES. THEY WILL BLOW UP they MAKE explosive hydrogen gas)
5. reconnect cables to batteries
6. make sure there is a gap between the batteries for cooling
7. visually inspect that all cables are not going to get pinched,
8.covered up cables with the battery cable covers over
9. reassemble wheelchair making sure electrical cables are not rubbing or pinched. use zip ties to help, but not too tight because they can dig into cables.
I would take it to a wheelchair repair company because of fire hazard of doing this. Do this at your own risk

Batteries are not put in right. the charger is also bad. Strege Mobility

One of the most common controllers, codes to help you and others.





VSI & VR2 Joystick error flash codes:
1 RED BAR:Low Battery Voltage The battery is flat (more likely).
Or the battery has a bad connection (which is unlikely)
2 RED BARS: Left Motor Disconnected The left motor is disconnected. Check all the connections for physical disconnection or corrosion or burning usually caused by the salt poured onto the roads every winter.
3 RED BARS: Left Motor Wiring Trip The left motors wiring has a short circuit. Check all connections and leads for wear and chafing between the left motor and the battery cables or chassis
4 BARS: Right Motor Disconnected The right motor is disconnected. Check all the connections for physical disconnection or corrosion or burning usually caused by the salt poured onto the roads every winter.
5 BARS: Right Motor Wiring Trip The right motors wiring has a short circuit. Check all connections and leads for wear and chafing between the right motor and the battery cables or chassis
6 BARS: Activated if you turn on your wheelchair with an external device like the Charger still connected.
7 BARS: Possible Joystick Trip, Make sure that the joystick is in the centre position before switching on. If you still get this when switching on then joystick is probably faulty.
8 BARS: A control system trip. Make sure that all connections are secure and if so the power module or control pod is probably faulty. Test by substitution of known good one.
9 BARS: The parking brakes have a bad connection or have a failed solenoid, or any lever or switches that disconnect drive for pushing the chair manually may be pulled or switched.
10 BARS: Over voltage detected. This can happen with a bad battery connection although unlikely. More likely your battery charger is faulty and is overcharging your batteries quite severely.
1 BAR to 10 BARS and back in a "ripple" every few seconds. Joystick not cantered when turned on. Switch off and try again.
1 BAR to 6 FLASH every few seconds. System Asleep. Switch off and back on. Time before sleep can be adjusted or disabled in programming

Hi
delobner,

Sometime we lock our vsi joystick by mistake. Here are the instructions on how to lock and unlock your joystick.

If the problem is still there after write me back and I'll help you.

LOCKING/UNLOCKING THE VSI

The VSI has a feature that enables you to lock your power chair to prevent

unauthorized use.

To lock the VSI:

1. With the VSI powered on, press and hold the on/off key. After one (1)

second, the VSI should beep.

2. Release the on/off key.

3. Push the joystick to the full forward position until the VSI beeps.

4. Pull the joystick to the full rearward position until the VSI beeps.

5. Release the joystick. There should be a long beep.

6. The VSI is now locked.

To unlock the VSI:

1. Press the on/off key and power on the VSI. The maximum speed/profile
indicator should ripple side to side.

Good Luck

This 8-light code is a joystick controller problem. It is an internal problem with the circuit board located inside the joystick. The entire joystick assembly would need to be replaced in this situation. If you are in need of a joystick, I have several for sale.

Check that you don't have the charger cord still connected or the motor disengaged.

Have you checked the battery first to see if that could be the issue?
