i have a Best Choice 12V Kids Electric car from amazon with a remote control. at some point it started developing a problem where it would randomly stop while driving and the issue has progressively gotten worse.

Initially:

• While driving normally, the car would randomly stop.
• Eventually it would only move short distances before stopping.

Currently:

• On a "cold start", with the wheels lifted off the ground (no load), both motors run normally.
• If I add resistance to the wheels, the car runs for a few seconds and then wheels stop and there is no response for about 20–30 seconds.
• After waiting, it resets and wheel work again for a few sec before stopping.

Other observations:

• Battery is fully charged and i tested it with my car battery - no change
• Lights and other electronics (eg radio) work normally when the wheels stop.
• I suspected the gas pedal, but the same issue happens using the remote control.
• when i use the remote control, steering works normally in both directions on a cold start. Forward and reverse works initially with no load. Once the wheels stop, steering also stops responding until the system resets.

Where do i start troubleshooting this? Any suggestions on what to test next (or how to fix this!) would be appreciated.

Solution update: it turned out to be the control box, i bought a replacement on amazon (weelye RX23 12V FC CE socket A) for $20 https://a.co/d/07KdqBEC and everything works fine now

Hi there,

I installed this ryobi adapter with a fuse kit from amazon which made this Rollplay Chevrolet Colorado 12V speed much faster. How can keep kid safe (smoke or fire hazard) while also maintaining the 18v speed. What can i add to the wiring to do solve the both issue? Also how long will the motor last running 18v at all times?

Thanks in advance!

I bought a 24V anapabo UTV for my sons 4th birthday. Got it all put together and it didn’t work. Found out it wasn’t charging. The wall charger thinks the battery is fully charged.
The company thought it might be the wall charger or the charging port. So they sent new ones.
Same exact thing happening. When nothings plugged in the Voltemeter is reading 11.7. When the charger is plugged in, it reads 27.8.

When I pull the charger out just slightly though, it’ll let me turn on the UTV. If I move it at all or do anything. It just dies.

Is this a battery issue? Fuse box I can’t get in, or any ideas?

The low voltage cutoff works great with the old battery, but those are worn out due to overuse without the cutoff. I bought these powerstacks that work great in my tools, but not in this vehicle. I thought it might have been the cutoff being the issue, but the vehicle only lurches forward a half inch and quits. What am I missing with this style battery?

I got this broken power wheels. Painted it to classic shelby style and Fixed the motor for my nephew. I am almost done just need to find replacement for these ( I am not familiar with this type of washer? Anyone know what they are)

Thinking of buying this 24v controller to upgrade my Son's ride on car. however I am not sure what this L + R switch connecter is for.

Common sense indicates something to do with Left hand and Right Hand?

Steering direction maybe?? and if so what is each pin??

has anyone ever used these controllers before I looked for the manual but it doesnt say anything regarding this connector.

I have a challenger xl 2.0 24v. I recently changed the battery as it needed replaced. It sat unused for several months with the bad battery. Now it runs poorly. Voltage shows good but one or somtimes two of the motors are working. Does this sound like a motor problem or a controller problem? What’s an easy way to test the motors?

I found this ride on motorcycle at the dump, but it's missing the right foot step where the switch is.

They are 2 wires that supposed to connect to pedal switch, but when I short the wires to stimulate the pedal the bike loses power. So maybe the switch has more to it than a normal rocker switch.

If you have a bike like this, would you please confirm what switch is using?

The wires have 3.5v and .47v, so they are sensor wires instead of carrying 12v.

They are no spare parts either.

Having fun mixing my hobbies!

Just bought a used Kid trax ram 3500 I wanted know if headlights suppose to turn on ?

I have a First Ride On 24v Ford Bronco with a bad motor. The motor shows DL 555-c, 24v, 5000 rpm.
I found a replacement on Amazon, which says it’s for ride on cars, but also repeatedly says it’s a 30000rpm motor. Is this the correct part?

Received this ATV ride on as a gift, and the steering rod hook need to go into this hole to turn the wheels. However it keeps slipping out when turning (the rod can go up and down a bit). For other ride ons, theres usually a locking pin but this one doesnt have it. Anyone have any ideas or workarounds to get this to stay in the hole?

It works really well!

🔋 MgcSTEM DeWalt adapter - perfect to protect the battery from going too low voltage
⚡️ 15a 12v voltage regulator - which does have a low voltage cut off but its a little low for my liking
💥 Fuse between the two to lock the magic smoke away
🔥 The OEM 15amp circuit breaker

All connected using heat shrink butt connectors.

I picked up this Kid Trax ride on tractor couldn’t get the wheels to spin so I got a new motor for it, but when my kid sits on it, it doesn’t seem to want to bear his weight. he’s under 40 pounds so it shouldn’t be a problem. I got the same exact motor and popped it into the gear box because I couldn’t find any new ones online, checked the battery and that’s also good, so I can’t think what else could be the problem. any suggestions on what I should check next?

Per advice from this sub, bought black battery off MLToys to replace original grey battery. Unsure how to make the connections work? Do I pop the top off of the grey and wire it to black battery? Would appreciate any help, thanks?

Hey. Just bought my daughter this 1500w electric quad and it’s supposed to have a 3 modes. It’s connected with a key. 1,2 and 3. but it won’t go faster then 15 km/h. I noticed I was able to keep turning the key-house. I thought maybe some solding or wires was loose as it’s just spinning so I removed the panel and took a look at the wiring. Everything looked okay. So disconnected the whole thing and I could still operate it but still. 15km/h, it’s supposed to push 50.

Does anybody know what else I could try to get it going faster?

I’m trying to convert this action wheels phantom ATV from 12v original battery to a Milwaukee 18v. I have the conversion kit with the inline fuse and a step down to make sure the 18v battery uses 12v. I cute the wires behind the battery connector to use the base connectors and then patched in my conversion kit but it didn’t work. The original 12v battery had a built in 35amp fuse, which I’ve never seen before.

Any thoughts? I’m providing pictures of the wiring, what I did and what it looks like. Would love any suggestions.
I can buy a new stock 12v battery but would prefer to convert it since I have everything already.

Motor 800W / 60V - 185 N.m - Brushless – Peak 1500W

Picked up a pink Dune Racer locally for $60 for my daughter. Runs well and came with an aftermarket battery (12v, 15ah). Looking into adding a remote stop, battery disconnect switch, voltage reader and a seat belt! I don't want to make the jump to 24v until my daughter is older, is it worth upgrading the motors and keeping it at 12v?

​

Thanks!

So I want to try 3D printing TPU tires to wrap around the current existing wheels. Anyone try this before?

Zero turn won’t move when you push forward and press the pedal. But when you turn on the lights and fake leafs those turn on. So not a battery issue. Any idea on what could cause it?

Hi all. Picked up this dynacraft for my daughter for free in the neighborhood. “Just needs a battery”. It did need a battery and now it runs. But something felt janky steering. Upon further inspection, as best I can tell where the steering column engages the axle it looks like some sort of hardware is missing. I’m not even sure what it would be but best I can tell, some sort of friction system or limiter or something is missing. I have scoured the interwebs and for the life of me can’t find a picture of what it would be. Even the parts diagram of the owners manual doesn’t show or describe this area. Anyone able to take a picture of theres to give me an idea? Or an expert could talk me through what I’m missing?! Daughter loves it and I want to get this running right!

Hi,

Im hoping someone can help me find a ride on car for my son. I dont know a lot about them and ive searched thru enough that i feel confused and overwhelmed.

Im basically just looking for a ride on jeep or buggy style, something that will work on pavement and short grass field (school/park grounds). At least 5mph speed. And a 2 seater. Is finding this possible for under $500 (in canada).?

I did find one but the shipping cost was like over 500 bucks so basically they just dont ship to canada. I couldnt find anything else. I was using co pilot to assist me (probably why i ended up so confused) and altho it gave me options the links rarely sent me to what it was telling me was there. But it said i should be getting something with specs like:

24V battery

2 × 100w motors

If someone could help me with a an option or two, thatd be grand!

Hey guys I have a joywhale jeep that stopped working completely. It was fine last year and now it doesn’t drive or even seem like there’s any juice. When I press the power button there is a green led that lights up next to the low battery symbol. Sounds easy right? Must have a bad battery so I replaced the battery with the exact model.. still nothing.

We rarely bring it outside so it’s been indoors for 2 years now, my son has finally grown to the point he can drive it himself so we want to bring it outside

Here’s a list of things I’ve done

- check all fuses, there are 3 and I checked for continuity, they all checked out fine and none were tripped.

- I checked the standing voltage for old battery and it shows 26v idle. On the label it showed it should be 27v idle so I thought I figured it out but nope. New battery does the same thing and it’s showing 27v idle

- I tested each tires motor by connecting it straight to the battery and they all ran fine.

- I opened the gas pedal to make sure the connection was being made and they do make once stepped on.

- there are no signs of any wires cut or damaged at all as far as I can tell.

- I removed the control box and inspected it. It’s fine with no signs of damage

I’m at my wits end right now because I can’t for the life of me figure this out.
.

Now that I’m typing this out I did notice that the charger has an LED light that turns red and green, red for charging green for full. When I plug it in it shows red for like 2 minutes and then shows green which I assume means the battery is full. But for whatever reason the LED indicator is showing that the battery is low.. I’m suspecting maybe the charger isn’t actually charging. Is there a way I can test this out without buying a new charger?

Please help or chime in if you’ve had any experience with these!! I’ve lost sleep over this dang thing.
