Does the speed of the scooter slow down before it stops running? Or does the speed remain the same and then the scooter stops running all of a sudden?
Ralphu
It slows down
The 4 Lights go off and the battery light comes on
as soon as the throtle gos back to stop the 4 lights come back on
only able to move at slow speed/walk next with throtel on
It only takes less then 2 hours to recharge battery

The battery level indicator lights on the throttle or instrument panel are a basic Voltmeter and if they go off when the throttle is engaged that indicates that the battery pack is dropping too much Voltage under load. Everything that you described points towards the battery pack being faulty.
A small percent of new batteries have factory defects and sometimes load tests results are not correct due to human error so even though the batteries are new and they have been load tested the scooter's built in Voltmeter is telling a different story.
Battery level indicator lights are reliable and not prone to giving inaccurate readings so you could trust them, or you could verify their reading by checking the Voltage of the battery pack when the throttle is engaged to see if its reading matches the indicator lights.
The Zappy 3 Pro scooter's 36 Volt battery pack should have around 39 to 41 Volts when fully charged and the power switch is off, and when the power switch is on and the throttle is fully engaged the Voltage should only drop around 1/2 to 1 Volt for a new battery pack, and to not less than 36 Volts for a good used battery pack.
Please let us know how it goes.

When i do this test do I ride or just have the wheel off the ground
The battery pack is 3 SLA 15 ah SLA1104
Ralphu
Did load test while moving power dropped off 40.7v to 36.1
Used multimeter on each battery under load
#1 7.5
#2 10.9
#3 11.6
Going to take #1 battery back to Where I got it and get a replacement
Will let you know the out come

All three of those batteries have poor load test results so maybe they are from an old or faulty batch of batteries. I would expect for new batteries to be at around 13.5 Volts with no load and 12 Volts or higher under load.
Ralphu
So I go to the INTERSTATE battery store and they say the motor is pulling too much power.?
When I ran the load test with one battery at a time hooked to a meter the one that dropped to about 7.5 volts. They are saying that I need Deep Cycle batteries.What jerks!!!
Just going to order some on line.
I showed them this video and they a a a a no answer
Don't know what else to test or do.
Zappy Classic Electric Scooter Relay Conversion
ESP Support
Here is a Zappy Classic electric scooter wiring diagram showing how to replace the original PC board with a standard 12 Volt 30/40 Amp automotive relay. The original PC board was designed so the motor would not start until the scooter was pushed off to around walking speed. When replacing the original PC board with a relay the scooter should be pushed off to around walking speed before the throttle is engaged. If the scooter is not pushed to walking speed before it is started the motor and relay will have a very high Amp load placed on them which could cause these parts to fail prematurely.
The terminal numbers on automotive relays are clearly marked on their bottom side. Either a four terminal SPST (single pole single throw) or five terminal SPDT (single pole double throw) automotive relay could be used. If using a five terminal SPDT relay the middle terminal marked 87a should not be connected to any wires.
Four-Terminal Automotive Relay
12 Volt automotive relays are available on our Relays Page and they are also available at all auto parts stores. If you need a new throttle the original yellow finger-pull On-Off throttles are discontinued and no longer available however we sell an upgrade On-Off twist throttle on the Zappy Classic Parts Page.
This PC board to automotive relay conversion will also work on Zappy SX electric bicycles and electric bicycle conversion kits.

I just read the Zappy Classic owners manual and discovered that it has an on/off switch and a circuit breaker which I was previously unaware of. I am not sure if the on/off power switch is used to switch the high current power on and off between the battery and controller, or if it is a low current switch used to deactivate the throttle from engaging.
If you could attach some photos of the wiring showing the back of the on/off switch and the circuit breaker along with how they are wired to all of the other parts of the scooter then we will revise the wiring diagram to include these parts.

Thanks for attaching those photos. Thanks to those photos I was able to determine how the power switch is wired into the scooter and have updated the wiring diagram above so it is now accurate.
