Brand New Batteries are only warranted for a period of 6 months. The same batteries delivered in a brand new chair are warranted for a period of one year. Batteries that are properly charged and serviced, should last for 2-5 years under the very best of conditions. After 10 years you have exceeded the natural life of a man made form of energy and I congratulate your diciplines. Out of the top of each motor is a 1/2 inch high stub. The linkage to the lever is usually attached with an allen fastener. Sometimes 2 allen fasteners are used. As you move the free-wheel lever, to and fro the nub rotates 180 degrees. I'm only guessing the linkage is slipping and not allowing your motors to enter free-wheel. Ifs only a guess, using the internet. I know Daryl Gwynn and his history before and after his crash in the UK. We used to meet with him each Sept during the Nats in Indianapolis. Good Luck.

Batteries are 10 yrs old. They were the sealed lead acid. im assuming they dropped below the chargers ability to charge them, need to be taken out, but now I just need the thing to freewheel. It has he brushless system which was a new idea in 2001. its the chair Darryl Gwynn gave me, very little use.......runs great if it has proper batteries . Only a few were made in this paint design. I would sell it to someone if they are interested. Ron On Wednesday, September 28, 2016 7:42 PM, "wheelch...@aol.com" <wheelch...@aol.com> wrote: A trans-motor, consist of 3 separate components. The Motor, the Gearbox and the Magnetic Break. You might be moving the Free Gear Lever, but if the pin that is connected to it, is not properly secured it will just rotate and not move. How old are your batteries? Best Wishes In a message dated 9/28/2016 7:37:58 P.M.

I pulled the motor disengage level on each of the two motors and it still wont move. Is there something that disengages the brakes or something Im missing to get the chair to roll? Thanks my dads mad and I need an answer. Thank you in advance. Ron
