What to Do When Your Mobility Scooter Stops Working

A sudden breakdown with your mobility scooter can be frustrating — especially when you're out and about or relying on it for daily tasks. But don’t panic! At Mobility Scooters Blackpool, we’re here to help get you moving again, quickly and safely.

Here’s what to do if your mobility scooter stops working — and how our team can assist you at every step.

🚨 Step 1: Don’t Try to Force It

If your scooter suddenly loses power or won’t respond:

• Turn it off and wait a few moments before turning it back on.

• Check the battery connections.

• Make sure the scooter isn't in "freewheel" mode.

• Look for any visible error lights or beeping patterns — these often indicate what the problem might be.

Still not working? That’s where we come in.
