The overall life of the battery is maximized with proper care. Always charge the battery after each use. Do not store the battery in a discharged state. Accelerator switch not operating properly. Check accelerator switch operation - Remove Accelerator plate from toy. Remove the blue wire from switch, remove red wire and place it on the terminal that had the blue wire. If vehicle runs, then accelerator switch needs to be replaced. Order accelerator plate. Check accelerator switch wire locations- See solution for "Accelerator switch not connected properly" below. Motor wire disconnected. Motor wire check - Place vehicle in low speed. Raise rear wheels off the ground and turn one rear wheel. The other rear wheel should turn in the opposite direction. If other wheel does not turn, then you may have a motor wire off. Reconnect motor wire. Shifter wires disconnected. Check wires on shifter connector block. Short runtime Vehicle has too much load.

If one wheel is stalled or stopped the other wheel gets all the power. Shift to high speed to get full power to both wheels. Motor wire is disconnected. See solution for "Motor wire disconnected" above. Shifter wire disconnected. Check wires on shifter connector block. Bad shifter switch. Replace shifter switch. Problems in either High, Low or Reverse speeds. High Speed is in the "lock-out" position. Remove the High Speed "lock-out". Motor wire is disconnected. See solution for "Motor wire disconnected" on reverse side. Shifter wire disconnected. Check wires on shifter connector block. Bad shifter switch. Replace shifter switch. Vehicle stops intermittently. Then restarts after several seconds. Automatic Circuit Breaker has tripped because of over loading. Reduce the load on the vehicle. Too much weight, steep slopes, thick grass, sand, etc or any combination of these conditions can overload the vehicle. Circuit breaker trips when the battery is plugged into the black vehicle harness. Accelerator switch not connected properly. Check accelerator switch wire locations. Remove foot board by prying with a screw-driver at its base. The wiring sequence is red, white and blue from the front of vehicle to the back of vehicle. Loud clicking noise heard when toy is being used. Gears are stripping. Replace motor/ gearbox assembly. Battery makes a bubbling or sizzling noise when charging. Battery is being charged. It is normal for some batteries to make some noise during charging. No action is needed. Wheels spin too much. Not enough weight on rear wheels. Add more weight to vehicle.
