PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS GUIDE

PROBLEM

POSSIBLE CAUSE

SOLUTION

Vehicle was running but

Loose wires or loose connectors

Check all wires and connectors. Make sure the battery

suddenly stopped

 

connector is tightly plugged into the motor connector,

 

 

and that there are no loose wires around the motors.

 

Tripped thermal fuse

The built-in thermal fuse may "trip" and shut down operation

 

 

of the vehicle if the vehicle is overloaded or the driving

 

 

conditions too severe. Once a fuse has "tripped", release

 

 

the button on the handlebar and wait approximately 25

 

 

seconds before operating the vehicle again. To avoid

 

 

repeated automatic shutdowns, do not overload the vehicle

 

 

by exceeding the 40 lb maximum weight capacity or by

 

 

towing anything behind the vehicle. Do not drive up hills or

 

 

run into fixed objects, which can cause the wheels to stop

 

 

spinning while power is still being supplied to the motors.

 

 

If a thermal fuse continually trips, contact your local Power

 

 

Wheels® authorized service center.

Short run time (Less than

Undercharged battery

Charge the battery. A new battery should have been

1 - 3 hours per charge)

 

charged for at least 18 hours before using the vehicle for

 

 

the first time. After first-time use, recharge the battery for

 

 

at least 14 hours after each use. Never charge the

 

 

battery longer than 30 hours.

 

 

Check all wires and connectors. Make sure the battery

 

 

connector is tightly plugged into the charger connector,

 

 

and that the charger is plugged into the wall.

 

 

Make sure power flow to the wall outlet is “ON”.

 

Overcharged battery

Do not charge the battery longer than 30 hours. If you

 

 

suspect that your battery is damaged as a result of

 

 

overcharging, contact your local Power Wheels® authorized

 

 

service center. They can test the battery for you.

Battery is old and will not accept full charge

Even with proper care, a rechargeable battery does not last forever. Average battery life is 1 to 3 years depending on vehicle use and use conditions. Replace only with a Power Wheels® 6 Volt (4.0 Amp/Hr.) battery with built-in thermal fuse. Do not substitute parts.

Tripped thermal fuse

The built-in thermal fuse may "trip" and shut down operation

 

of the vehicle if the vehicle is overloaded or the driving

 

conditions too severe. Once a fuse has "tripped", release

 

the button on the handlebar and wait approximately 25

 

seconds before operating the vehicle again. To avoid

 

repeated automatic shutdowns, do not overload the vehicle

 

by exceeding the 40 lb maximum weight capacity or by

 

towing anything behind the vehicle. Do not drive up hills or

 

run into fixed objects, which can cause the wheels to stop

 

spinning while power is still being supplied to the motors.

 

If a thermal fuse continually trips, contact your local Power

 

Wheels® authorized service center.
