O...Per my instructions on getting to the batteries. On all models take off the seat. On all Rascals and Chauffers before the 600 series, the batteries sat outside under the seat. There were some models where there were covers in addition to the 600. Point is expose the batteries. Before the 600 on the 400 and 500 series, you can tell these by the rubber on the handlebar upright, the batteries are in individual plastic cases that fit under the seat. To check, or change these you need to disconnect and remove from the scooter. to take off the case, see where the harness enters the case, you'll see a sort of wedge that tightens the harness as it goes through the case, use a screwdriver to force the wedge out, loosen the straps and take the case off the battery. Remember how it came apart. Check the battery as above and if replacing do the reverse to put it back. Also, if just checking and you have an ohm meter you can stick the probes into the holes of the connector and read it that way. Don't remember which hole is which, experiment. Just unplug from the scooter and look at the end you'll see the holes.<br /><br />Lee MurrayLee Murrayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15519259832655076686noreply@blogger.com
