PROBLEM: The Sidekick Scooter does not run.

POSSIBLE CAUSE: The battery may be low on power. 

After each use, or once a month minimum, charge the battery for a full 16 hours. 

Do not leave the battery on the charger for more than 30 hours.  See pages 5-7 for 

recharging warnings and instructions. 

POSSIBLE CAUSE: Thermal fuse has tripped.

The Kid Trax Toys 6-volt battery features a thermal fuse with a reset fuse on the circuit 

board that will automatically trip and cut all power to the Sidekick Scooter if the motor, 

electric system or the battery is overloaded. The fuse will reset after the unit is turned 

off and then on again. See page 14 for tips to avoid tripping the thermal fuse. 

POSSIBLE CAUSE: Wheel nuts are loose.

If the nuts are not tight, the front wheel will not engage the forward gears. Tighten both 

the nuts with the nut wrenches supplied.

POSSIBLE CAUSE: Battery connector or wires are loose.

Make sure the battery connectors is are firmly plugged into each other. If you 

find loose wires around the motor, call all Kid Trax Toys Consumer Relations at 

(877) 741-6154 for an authorized service center.

POSSIBLE CAUSE: Battery is dead.

Have you properly maintained the battery according to the directions? Is the battery 

old? Your battery may need to be replaced. Refer to the Battery Maintenance 

instructions on page 14. 

POSSIBLE CAUSE: Electric system is damaged.

Water may have corroded the system, or loose dirt, gravel or sand might have jammed 

the switch. Call Kid Trax Toys Consumer Relations at (877) 741-6154 for an authorized 

service center.

POSSIBLE CAUSE: Motor is damaged.

The Sidekick Scooter needs professional repair. Call Kid Trax Toys Consumer Relations 

at (877) 741-6154 for an authorized service center.
