PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS GUIDE
POSSIBLE CAUSE
Loose wire or loose connectors
Tripped thermal fuse
Vehicle is overloaded
Driving conditions are too stressful
Undercharged battery
Overcharged battery
Battery is old and will not accept
full charge
Tripped thermal fuse
SOLUTION
Check all wires and connectors. Make sure the motor harness
connector is plugged into the battery connector, and that there
are no loose wires around the motors.
Each Power Wheels® 6 Volt (4.0 Amp/Hr.) battery has a built-in
thermal fuse. A 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 pedal and wait
25 seconds before operating the vehicle again. To avoid repeated
automatic shutdowns, do not overload the vehicle by exceeding
the 23 kg maximum weight capacity or by towing anything behind
the vehicle. Do not drive up hills or run into fi xed 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 Consumer Relations.
Make sure you do not overload the vehicle by allowing more than
one rider at one time, by exceeding the 23 kg (50 lbs) maximum
weight capacity, or by towing objects behind the vehicle.
Use only on generally level ground.
Charge the battery. A new battery should have been charged for
at least 18 hours before using the vehicle for the fi rst time. After
fi rst-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 charger connector
is plugged into the battery connector, and that the charger is
plugged into the wall.
Make sure power fl ow to the wall outlet is "ON".
Do not charge the battery longer than 30 hours. If you suspect
that your battery is damaged as a result of overcharging, contact
Consumer Relations. They can test your battery for you.
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 a built-in thermal fuse. Do not
substitute parts.
