Why is the seating actuator on my You-Q Wheelchair moving in the wrong direction?
If the seating actuator on your You-Q Wheelchair moves in the wrong direction after replacement, the wiring connections may be twisted in the cable or motor. Change the actuator direction in the driving program or replace the cable or part.
Why is my You-Q ALEX Wheelchair driving slower than usual?
If your You-Q Wheelchair is continuously driving slower than normal, start by checking if all seating options are in the neutral position. The speed limit may be engaged due to a microswitch signal from a seating function. Also, measure the resistance from the speed limit cable in different seating positions, as bad cable connections or a broken resistor can influence the drive inhibit signal. Finally, verify the program settings and reprogram if needed, as incorrect programming can cause this issue.
Why does the seating actuator on my You-Q ALEX Wheelchair stop working so quickly?
If the seating actuator on your You-Q Wheelchair only functions for a short time, check the programming and make corrections if needed, contacting the manufacturer for correct settings, as the max current setting may be too low. Additionally, the actuator timeout setting may be too short, or the actuator speed may be too low, so check the programming and make corrections as necessary, contacting the manufacturer for the correct settings. Finally, the actuator itself may be internally malfunctioning, so check its temperature after operation and listen for excessive noise when operated; replace the actuator if necessary.
What causes the seating actuator on my You-Q ALEX to stop working?
If the seating actuator on your You-Q Wheelchair does not function, first check the programming and make corrections if needed, contacting the manufacturer for correct settings. Also, inspect the cables for damage or incorrect connections and replace them if necessary. If the wheelchair goes into fault status when the actuator is operated, the actuator may have a short circuit and need replacement. Verify if an actuator inhibit is active by checking the program and confirming that the inhibit signal is functioning correctly. Lastly, test the actuators on a different output channel to identify if the actuator module has a fault.
Why does my You-Q ALEX wobble when driving?
If your You-Q Wheelchair wobbles overall or moves up and down when driving, check for misalignment of the tires on the drive wheels, which can be caused by long inactive periods. If misaligned, reduce the tire pressure to 1 bar, drive for several minutes at moderate speed, and then increase the pressure again to the advised value to reduce misalignment. If this is not sufficient, replace the wheel.
Why are the motors on my You-Q ALEX Wheelchair so noisy?
If the motors in your You-Q Wheelchair are making excessive noise, check the carbon brushes and collector. If needed, replace the brushes or the motor.
Why do the castor wheels on my You-Q Wheelchair wobble at high speed?
If the castor wheels on your You-Q Wheelchair "wobble" at higher speeds, check the tire pressure and decrease it if needed, referring to the user manual for the correct value. Also, consider whether there is too little load on the castor wheels and, if possible, modify the seating setup or decrease the tire pressure.
Why does my You-Q ALEX Wheelchair only work for a short time?
If your You-Q Wheelchair only drives well for a short period, the current limit may be set too low, or the controller may be underspecified. Check the program settings and replace the controller if necessary.
Why is my You-Q Wheelchair lacking power?
If your You-Q Wheelchair has too little power to drive properly, check the tire pressure of both the drive wheels and castors and inflate them if needed, consulting the user manual for the correct values. Also, verify that the programming of the speed and torque settings is correct and make any necessary corrections.
What to do if my You-Q Wheelchair powers on but won't move?
If your You-Q Wheelchair can be powered up but does not drive, first ensure that the parking brakes are not in freewheel mode. If they are, switch them to Drive mode. Also, check for active drive inhibits. Examine the program to identify any present drive inhibits and inspect the cabling of drive inhibits on the wheelchair.
