Any electromechanical device requires occasional troubleshooting. However, most problems that arise can usually
be solved with a bit of thought and common sense. Many of these problems occur because the batteries are not
fully charged or because the batteries are worn down and can no longer hold a charge.
DIAGNOSTIC FLASH CODES
Diagnostic flash codes help you perform basic troubleshooting quickly and easily. A diagnostic flash code will flash
from the status LED in the event one of the conditions listed below develops. After you perform the solution
associated with the diagnostic flash code, your Celebrity should resume normal operation
NOTE: Your Scooter will not run unless the flash code condition is resolved and the Scooter has been
turned off and then turned back on.
