    What does 'System Error' mean on my Handicare PUMA 40 Wheelchair and how can I fix it?

      A 'System Error' indicates a fault that cannot be attributed to a specific module. Check all cables and connections. Cycle the power. If the error persists and the system contains 3rd party Modules: Disconnect all the none PGDT modules and cycle the power. If this has cleared the trip: Connect each 3rd party module in turn, cycling the power each time. If the trip reappears after one of the power cycles then the last module to have been added to the system must be defective. If the error persists, the PGDT control system may be defective.

    • E
      Erin WilliamsSep 17, 2025
      If your Handicare Mobility Aid displays a 'Low Battery' message, it means the control system has detected that the battery voltage has fallen below 16V. Check the condition of the batteries and their connections to the control system. If the issue persists after checking the batteries and connections, the Power Module may be defective.

    What does it mean if ON/OFF light flashes 4 times on Handicare Mobility Aid?
    • J
      Joe WigginsSep 15, 2025
      If the ON/OFF light on your Handicare Mobility Aid flashes 4 times, the cause may be related to the m2 motor. The m2 motor connection could be faulty or loose, so check the connection and secure it. The m2 motor itself might be defective and need replacement. There might also be a short circuit in the m2 motor connections, requiring correction. Additionally, a defective power module output could be the cause. Check the motor for any defects, as a power module output typically becomes defective due to a motor issue. Replace the power module only if the fault occurs immediately upon switching the unit on. If the fault occurs when you start driving, the entire left-hand motor circuit is likely causing the fault, in which case you should replace the entire drive unit concerned.

    What does 'DIME Error' mean on my Handicare PUMA 40 Wheelchair and how can I fix it?
    • T
      Timothy WallsSep 2, 2025
      A 'DIME Error' indicates an identification conflict between two modules in the system. If a new module has been introduced: Disconnect the new module and cycle the power. If no error is present, connect the new module to the system and cycle the power. If the error reappears, the new module is the cause. If there have been no additions: Disconnect one module at a time and cycle the power.

      If the ON/OFF light flashes four times on your Handicare Scooter, it could be due to a faulty connection or a defective m2 motor. Check the motor connections and cabling. If the connections are fine, the m2 motor may need to be replaced.
