PROBLEM
POSSIBLE
CAUSE
SOLUTION
Vehicle does not run
Undercharged battery
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 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 fl ow to the wall outlet is “ON”.
Charger is not working
There is no sure way to tell if your charger is working unless you 
have a volt meter. If you suspect there is a problem with your 
charger, contact your local Power Wheels® authorized service 
center. They can test your charger for you.
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”, remove your foot from the 
pedal and wait 25 seconds before operating the vehicle again. To 
avoid repeated automatic shutdowns, do not overload the vehicle 
by exceeding the 130 lbs (59 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 your local Power Wheels® authorized 
service center.
Loose wires or 
loose connectors
Check all wires and connectors. Make sure the battery connector 
is tightly plugged into the motor harness connector and that there 
are no loose wires around the motors.
Dead battery
If your battery is old or if you have not followed Battery Care 
instructions, your battery may be dead. If you are unsure whether 
or not the battery are dead, you can have it tested at your local 
Power Wheels® authorized service center.
Electrical switch damage
 The electrical switches can become corroded due to exposure to 
water or moisture, or can jam due to loose dirt, sand or gravel. 
Contact your local Power Wheels® authorized service center for 
diagnosis and repair.
