Went to turkey hunt this am..got to blind was setting out decoy and wheelchair didn't work OMG!!!
Called Gail (wife) (luckily switched to Verison and had signal...(exactly why I didn't want that at&t %^0* when altell went to at&t....%^0* coverage here.....why I switched)

Long story short...got wheelchair to wheelchair fixer place...he said probably wire connections
(guess invacare has problems with connections of motors to main harness)

Anyways I left a right and left motor in case one is bad (bought spares on ebay as they are kinda hard to find and new ones are big bucks...like $800 and then wait a long time)

Told him to check batteries as they are 3 yrs old...he will put in new ( he siad like $225 each x 2 ) if they aren't up to snuff!


Anyways it sucks when the most important thing in my life quits...but it's to be fixed maybe by this afternoon....hope so I got hunting to do!!!!!!!

I know what your talking about!!! Last June while fishing NY for the first week of bass season my chair broke..the left motor quit on me and I was doing "left circles" for an hour. I had my push chair for a back-up but was still a pain...

I hope everything works out as well, that could be an expensive fix! I had my van fail on me one morning, such a pita. Nothing I despise more than something I depend on, not working when I need it to.
