Lift dead No LED indication |
With voltmeter, check battery volts across B+ & B- on control board. If more than 23V, pull out both green connector blocks. After approximately 5 seconds there will be a bleep and the red LED will glow. This means there is a short circuit on the wiring. If no bleep or LED replace board. |
|
Lift running at half speed |
Very low battery volts, final stage before lift stops. Check dip-switch settings. Lift will run at half speed when immediately after power-up, the handset is used to move the lift UP or DOWN. |
|
Battery charger information |
Connect voltmeter across B+ & B- on the control board. Momentarily press up or down button on remote control, lift will bleep and the volts will dip down, then increase back to original voltage. If this happens the charger is OK Also look for the Green LED on front panel to be permanently illuminated. If it’s flashing, lift not receiving charge. Check charge contacts on track with voltmeter.(Should read approximately 40V DC). Check polarity of charge contacts on rail. Lower contact should be ‘+’, upper contact should be ‘-‘ on a left-hand track. Vice versa on right-hand track i.e. lower ‘-‘, upper ‘+’. Check continuity from lift charge contact butterfly to connection into controller for BOTH positive & negative looms. Are the butterfly contacts on the lift making contact with charge contacts on track? |

Yes there should be 2 batteries, one in each side of the stair lift .
We have had a minivator lift installed that has hardly been used after my farther moved the lift off the down park position for cleaning the remote control has stopped working can you tell me if it need to be reprogrammed if so how do I do it or is there a hidden switch that he has knocked off
My daughters stairlift keeps beeping. I have replaced the batteries in the remotes and the green light where it plugs into the wall is on so there is definitely power going to it. It seems to be going slower than it was.
Could the batteries be running down even though its running off the mains
Hi steve, the stairlift doesn’t run of the mains ! It runs by -2v 7AH batteries inside the carriage. The power supply is only a charger to the batteries.
