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 first time. After
first-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 charger connector is
plugged into the battery, and that the charger is plugged into
the wall.
Make sure power flow 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 Consumer Relations. 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 approximately 25 seconds before operating the vehicle
again. To avoid repeated automatic shutdowns, do not overload
the vehicle by exceeding the 59 kg (130 lbs.) 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 Consumer Relations.
Loose wire or loose connectors Check all wires and connectors. Make sure the motor harness
connector is plugged into the battery, 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 is dead, contact Consumer Relations.
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 Consumer Relations.
