PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS GUIDE

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.

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

service center. They can test the battery for you.
