Child's Electric Ride-On Toy Not Working?

Is your child's electric ride-on toy not working? Does the vehicle just not go? There are many possible reasons why it won't work, but here are a few; One of the reasons it doesn't work could be down to the battery not being fully charged.{C}{C} Another reason could be that the battery charger is damaged and not working. Without a volt meter, there's no way to tell whether the charger is working correctly or not. We at County Battery stock a nice range of toy battery chargers and batteries. The thermal fuse inside the battery could have been tripped. If this has happened, don't press down on the pedal or button for about 30 seconds and the fuse will reset itself. It could trip down to too much weight on the vehicle itself. If you think this could be the cause, be sure to check the owner's/instructions manual. Sometimes, the connection to the battery could also be loose. Check that all the connections are tight and that the battery harness is also tight where possible.

The battery may simply be dead. Most batteries last 1-3 years depending on the care and usage of the batteries. But eventually, even if the batteries have been cared for, they will be unable to receive or hold charge. Take a look on our website to view all ride on toy batteries we stock.
