Electric Wheelchair Repair


Answers

I need info on electric wheelchair repair and operation?

I have a friend who broke his back and needs his wheelchair repaired, I'm pretty good at electrical and electronic repair and have worked on medical equipt. before. I understand motors and operation but am a little weak on controls but I am a quick study.


More info is needed. What type of control system does the chair use, a modern or older chair for example. The electronic circuitry is fairly straight forward, but without more information little can be done. If you can locate my email on this site, write me and I'll try to help. I have 36 years experience in electronic control systems.

Should I agree to my wifes request and let her save up to buy an electric wheelchair? It would give me a lot?

More freedom to watch the Football instead of driving her to the shops everyday. Also there is quite a steep hill from the main road up to the estate if she rolls backwards into a car do I have to pay for the repairs to the car ????


Ah so youre back then x

re honda CRV 2002 or 2003 MYo3 - electric wheelchair. What weight will the folding table in cargo area bear?

I need to buy the car now and i do not know what model electric scooter/wheelchair the other person will choose or how soon. e.g. scooter that can go up and down kerbs- the Australian Walkabout scooter- but it is 145 cms long and I think the Honda cargo area with the second row of seats folded up is 140 cms long.Would it be possible to get the scooter in at an angle? What weight will the folding table bear? The problem with buying a used car is that if they have been smash repaired the supposed dimensions vary and I find I have to measure each car. So I cannot just measure one model and assume the measurements will be the same for the same model.
I would like to know:
1. Where on the car it says the series - ie MY03

2. Where the engine number is located

3. Where the VIN number is on the car - I want to check it from the car itself,

Can you post photos of these. I saw one Honda and the engine number was written in a series of disconnected strokes and the NRMA have said to beware of engines with numbers written in that style.


I only know that the Vin number is located at the end of the front door in the front dash board on the inside by the driver side. i will say that SUV is kind off to high if you want to put an electric wheelchair in but they are a possible way to make it. check with your local Honda dealer for more information and i will find out more information about this question and i update and edited my answer again if i get a chance OK. good luck.

wheelchair enhancement?

My sister just got an electric wheelchair and whenever i come home to visit, she gets wasted and i drive it around. I was trying to take it up some rocks out back and it bottomed out and something snapped. I managed to still climb the hill in the wheelchair but it pulles to one side and the brakes dont work worth a crap now. are there any repair kits for them or should i just give it back and hope for the best? it still runs but not as fast as it was.


That's funny !!!!!!!!!!
