Why is the green light on my Q'STRAINT Docking Station on, but the wheelchair is not secured?
If the green light on your Q'STRAINT Docking Station Dash Control is on, but the wheelchair isn't secured, it means the docking system is locked. To unlock it, turn off the vehicle, then press the Release Button or the Auxiliary Release Switch. This should open the Docking System.
Why are all the lights off on my Q'STRAINT Docking Station dash control?
If all the lights are off on the Dash Control of your Q'STRAINT Docking Station, it means the Locking Pawl is open, and the wheelchair isn't secured in the Docking System. Secure the wheelchair in the Docking System.
Why aren't the release button and auxiliary release switch working on my Q'STRAINT Docking Station?
If the Release Button on the Dash Control or the Auxiliary Release Switch of your Q'STRAINT Docking Station aren't working, it's a safety feature. The vehicle needs to be turned OFF for these buttons to function.
Why Q'STRAINT QLK unit clicks but doesn't energize solenoid when dash control pressed?
If the QLK unit clicks when the Dash Control is pressed but doesn't energize the solenoid for 8-10 seconds, ensure the voltage supplied to the QLK system is at least 12V when drawing 10A with the ignition OFF. The voltage supplied to the QLK system MUST be minimum 12V when drawing 10A with the ignition OFF.
What to do if green light is on when Q'STRAINT Docking Station is off?
If the vehicle is off, and the wheelchair is not in the Q'STRAINT Docking System, but the green light on the Dash Control is still on, press the Release Button or the Auxiliary Release Switch. This will open the Docking System and turn off the green light on the Dash Control.
How to fix Q'STRAINT Docking Station if the dash control is not working?
If the Dash Control of your Q'STRAINT Docking Station is not working, check that the Dash Control Wire Harness is connected to the Electronic Control Module (ECM). Also, ensure that the surface is flat, as any curvature can affect the Dash Control.
What to do if the red light on Q'STRAINT Docking Station turns on and off?
If the red light on your Q'STRAINT Docking Station Dash Control turns on and then off, it means the wheelchair isn't secured in the Docking System, and the Locking Pawl is still open. Make sure to properly secure the wheelchair in the Docking System.
Why is the green light on my Q'STRAINT Docking Station Dash Control not turning on?
If the green light on the Q'STRAINT Docking Station Dash Control won't turn on, it could be because the wheelchair isn't fully secured, meaning the Locking Pawl is still open. Alternatively, the Dash Control Wire Harness might not be properly connected to the Electrical Control Module (ECM). Ensure the wheelchair is secured, and check the connection of the Dash Control Wire Harness to the ECM.

The QLK-150 is a wheelchair interface bracket, specifically model Q04BR001, designed to facilitate the securement of manual wheelchairs within a vehicle using the QLK-150 Docking system. This bracket is intended for use with manual wheelchairs that have a 1-inch tube frame diameter and a lower frame rail positioned higher than 6 inches from the ground.
The primary function of the QLK-150 bracket is to act as an interface between a manual wheelchair and the QLK-150 Docking system. It provides a secure attachment point, allowing the wheelchair to be safely restrained as a seat in a motor vehicle. The system comprises a main bracket (center strap), cross bars, stabilizer V-bracket, bracket clamps, and a docking bolt. These components work together to create a robust connection between the wheelchair frame and the vehicle's docking mechanism. The docking bolt, adjustable in height, connects to the QLK docking system, ensuring proper engagement and securement.
The QLK-150 bracket is designed for manual wheelchairs with specific frame characteristics:
The hardware checklist provides a detailed list of components included for installation:
Hole sizes required for drilling during installation are:
The docking bolt should be positioned approximately 2 inches in front of the wheel axis. The V bracket requires at least 3-4 inches of clearance above it and must extend far enough forward to clear any footrests, covers, or obstructions.
The QLK-150 is a universal bracket (Q04BR0001), meaning it is designed to be adaptable to various manual wheelchairs within the specified parameters. However, it is crucial to note that its suitability for a specific wheelchair model has not been assessed by Q'STRAINT, and this remains the responsibility of the installer. Q'STRAINT recommends using a tested bracket designed for a specific transportable wheelchair whenever possible.
Installation involves several key steps:
A "Rear View" diagram illustrates the preferred and optional zones for wheelchair placement relative to the wheelchair reference plane, indicating a 15-degree angle from the center line and a width of 300mm (11.81 inches) for the preferred zone.
While the manual primarily focuses on installation, it implicitly highlights maintenance considerations through its emphasis on proper installation and post-installation checks:
The QLK-150 bracket is a critical component for ensuring the safety of wheelchair users in transit, and its proper installation and adherence to guidelines are paramount.
