Diagnosing the Problem

If you are having trouble with your commercial or van lift, it’s best to consult a certified technician promptly. The reason for this is that further problems may develop making it more expensive to fix. Additionally, having a properly working lift is part of having a well-oiled operation, and because your passengers are your top priority, you’ll want to get your lift looked at soon.

We have certified, professional technicians who can begin diagnosing a problem over the phone, however, it’s always best to bring it to us so we can complete a thorough inspection. Our technicians know that electrical issues are the most common problems with Ricon lifts, and are best diagnosed and repaired in person.

There are other issues that can show up in a Ricon lift, so no matter the problem, it’s always best to have a certified technician look at it. It’s important for the safety of your passengers, as they may be anxious about the lift process already, and it’s important for everyone’s peace of mind that you have a well-functioning lift.

Bring your lift to us and we’ll get to the bottom of the issue quickly. We’ll then recommend some possible solutions, and, in some cases, assist you replace instead of repair.

Knowing When to Replace

Once we’ve assessed your lift, we may recommend that it may be more cost-effective to replace rather than repair. There may be a few other reasons for this recommendation other than cost. You may have been attempting to lift heavier loads than normal, as is the case with individuals with battery-powered wheelchairs. These can be heavy loads, and they can contribute to further wear and tear or even failure of your Ricon lift. In these instances, you should be aware of a solution: getting a newer model. Wheelchair lifts are always improving so there are now lifts with more power and functionality that can carry heavier loads.

It is also important to note that the lifespan of your lift may simply have come to its end. We would likely be able to repair it in this case, but how long will it continue to work perfectly for you? You may need even more repairs down the road, so even if it doesn’t make sense from a cost perspective now, there may be cumulative costs incurred when maintaining your old lift over its lifespan.

There are times when replacement just makes sense. And we’re always honest and straightforward with you about our recommendations. Because buses are our expertise, we will always guide you towards a result that makes long-term sense for you.
