ASKING FOR HELP FROM AN ELECTRICIAN/ENGINEER SOLDERING A MICROSWITCH WHICH WIRE GOES WHERE

[Tedpetal18]

Thank you know I haven’t, I have a multi meter but no idea what I’m doing. I think I’m going to have to give up with it.

So far as I know, there would be no connection between the the brake problem, and not switching on. The brake is released by powering the brake up, and goes on, when the power is removed.

How do you know the batteries are OK, have you checked the voltage across them?

Hi Harry ok so I Harlow tested the batteries they are both reading 13.0v which is what they should be according to the video I watched. I’m feeling a bit hopeless but also determined to fix it. Any advice greatly appreciated. Thanks

Emma, are you absolutely sure nothing was connected to the middle connector?
A typical switch usually has a central common connector (C) and it switches one way (normally open (NO) or the other, normally closed (Marked NC).

Apparently that model has a resetable trip and some fuses worth a look https://www.diynot.com/diy/threads/sapphire-2-mobility-scooter-failure-any-pointers-please.562024/

Thanks John, yes as I had it running fine. The wheels were spinning perfectly. Then I assembled the scooter, sat on it went to go outside and it stopped. Now won’t turn on. I have spent another 4 hours today watching videos and check various connections & fuses with the multi meter. I’m now giving up. Thanks for taking the time to reply, it’s appreciated.

Thank you the trip switch has been checked and is all fine. I’ll find out where the other 2 are. Thanks so much
