If I may. If this issue was an automobile, a dealer would hook up the auto to a computer to analyze the issue. Electric wheelchairs users and dealers don't have that issue. But each chair has a control module that directs energy to each motor, from the energy of the combined batteries,

Battery disconnect switches have been around for decades. The big box stores like Auto Zone, Murrays, Advanced Auto and a few others will carry the basic switch, with a green or black knob at the top. Hot Rods used them for thief protection as the knob would screw to disconnect the battery,
