Wondering why your Power Wheels battery isn’t charging? First, you’ll need to figure out if the charger or the battery itself is the problem. In this video we go over how to test both.
What you’ll need:
- A volt meter (these can be found at your local hardware store for $10-15)
- Power Wheels battery
- Power Wheels charger
- 2 paperclips if you are testing the red Power Wheels battery
Testing the Charger Output:
- Switch the volt meter to the 20 DC side.
- Touch the electrodes to the Power Wheels battery charger (negative to negative, positive to positive)
- You’ll always want the voltage to be higher than the battery. For example, for a 6v battery the voltage should be 7+. For a 12v Power Wheels battery, the voltage should be above 13.5
- Anything less than these voltages will not be able to charge your battery
- Note: This test will not work on the Power Wheels quick charger, stay tuned for a separate video
Testing the Battery:
- This test is similar to how you checked the Power Wheels charger. Place the electrodes against the battery (negative to negative, positive to positive)
- If your battery is below a certain threshold, the charger will not work
- The 12v battery should be at 10.5v+ and the 6v battery should be over 5v. Any lower and you’ll need to replace the battery
- Note: Testing the red Power Wheels battery is a little trickier because the electrodes won’t fit into the slots. You’ll want to first insert paperclips, and then hold the electrodes beside them against the battery

@HighTechBatterySolutionsInc 7 жыл бұрын

You can not test a quick charger using the above method. The charger itself will not put out any voltage until it makes a solid connection with a battery. The only way to test the charger is to use a power wheels battery that you know is good. You test the voltage of the battery and write it down. Once you have your first reading you would then plug in the quick charger and let it sit connected for 10 minutes. After that time has passes you remove it from the battery and test the voltage of the battery - if its above the number you had previously written down then its working. If you can give me an idea of the problem your having with the charger then I can do my best to answer it.

@HighTechBatterySolutionsInc 6 жыл бұрын

There will be a draw (voltage drop) when the toy is pulling power from the battery, however, after the initial draw the battery should maintain its voltage level for a bit before slowly inching downward. If your battery drops significantly - into the 10-volt range - and doesn't stop its decline then its time to take a look at a new battery.

I have a 6V power wheels and the battery reads out 6.55V after charge. Charger is also putting out proper voltage. I plugged it in and checked connections. As far as i can tell, all switches are working. I even replaced the pedal switch with a new one. I hooked the battery up directly to the motors and they dont spin. As a final test, I plugged in a 12V battery through all of the cars wiring and everything seemed to work. Is it possible that the motors are old and the 6.55V just isn't enough to move them anymore?

@HighTechBatterySolutionsInc 10 ай бұрын

Unfortunately I don't have sufficient knowledge on how age affects electric motors and if a higher and higher voltage is necessary. Our electric fork lift is over 30 years old with several thousand hours on the machine and the battery voltage (and motors) remain the same with no issues. Does the vehicle take a single 6V battery or two? If you have more than one motor in there then I'm assuming it's a dual battery setup which means your motors might need 12V to run?

If the battery is 13 years old then is going to be time to replace it - the typical lifespan on these is 3 to 5 years. One quick way to tell if an old battery is bad is to physically shake it. If you can hear debris shifting around within the battery that means the lead plates have disintegrated and/or fallen apart.

I got a free power wheels toy and knew it needed a new 12v battery. Bought the new battery and the car drove great for an hour. Went to charge the battery and now the car won't drive for more then 30 seconds even after a 24 hour charge. I assumed the charger is dead which I verified using your strategy. However the battery is reading 5.5 volts which according to your video means the battery is in need of replacing. Is that possible? It's a brand new 12v battery. Just wanting to verify that if the readings are that low it means the battery is bad and not just in need of a charge. Thanks!

@HighTechBatterySolutionsInc 7 жыл бұрын

Since the battery is brand new and used only once or twice then there is a very good chance that it will bounce back from 5.5 volts, but you need to get a new charger ASAP. The longer the battery sits in this extreme discharged state the harder it will be to bring it back.

@nathanbantle4770 7 жыл бұрын

Thanks. It took some messing around but I got it back up to 11.93v. I had to cut my charger cables and connected it to my car battery charger first (charger wouldn't read it like you said). That bumped it up to about 10.5 volts. I then re connect my wires to the actual charger and did a single charge which brought it back up to 11.20. Sat it for a couple days and charged it again resulting in a 11.93 charge. Seems like it should be fine although it's not charging as strong as your battery but maybe it will recover more after a few new charges. Thanks for the help.

Yes, but two things to note. 1. You don't want to blast the battery with anything higher than 10 amps, anything higher and you run the risk of blowing the top off the battery. 2. The connection prongs in the battery make it really tough to hook battery clamps to. If you do rig up a good way to make a solid connect with a larger charger then hit it at ~10 amps for 45 to 60 minutes and then try plugging in the standard charger immediately after to see if you can recover it.

Is there a percentage rule for batteris for being dead and fully changed? For example a 6 volt battery that is 10 percent below 6 is a dead battery?

@HighTechBatterySolutionsInc 8 ай бұрын

The voltage range of a battery can vary depending on the type of battery, its age, and its condition. As a general rule of thumb, a battery is considered to be dead when its voltage drops below 80% of its fully charged voltage. In the case of a 6V battery you would be in the low 5V range to be considered dead.

We do not, the charger for both the Red 6V and the Grey 12V units are going to be in 1 AMP range. You can divide the capacity (AH) of the battery by 1 (1 AMP) to determine your charge time assuming the battery has been run all the way down. For example, the Red 6V Power Wheels Battery is rated at 9.5AH and the charger has an output of 1 AMP so 9.5/1 = 9.5 hours of charge time. I hope this helps!

If the battery is testing fully charged then issue is somewhere in the toy itself. If the battery is stone cold dead then there are options depending on the voltage reading that you get.

Yes, if you leave the battery on charge for days on end then overcharging will occur. Unfortunately, it sounds like your battery needs to be replaced. Your battery is able to retain proper voltage to operate a small draw like the radio but as soon as a real load is applied it fails outright. I am pretty confident your issue is limited to the battery because the radio also dies when you hit the pedal - if it remained on then you may have a fuse or switch issue with the pedal itself.

Either you have the wrong charger all together or your 12V setup is a pair of 6V batteries. Does your battery look like the Grey cube in this video?

The battery is black and 12 volt. The person I got it from said that the 6 volt charger is what came with it. Strange!

Everthing is good but the charger blinks red and green light flashes on of green red

@HighTechBatterySolutionsInc 4 жыл бұрын

If your charger has an LED light then you have the old school quick charger. I am not really familiar with this unit however I believe when the lights are alternating between red and green then its indicating a voltage issue with the battery.

How do I know if the battery is fully charged????? 12v

@richardprice9564 5 жыл бұрын

The battery voltage should be 12.7 or above to be fully charged. Unfortunately, Power Wheels has stopped making the chargers with the charge LED light on them so if your battery is discharged the general rule of thumb is 8 to 10 hours of charge time to get it back up to par.

What if the battery wont hold a charge for more than 10 mins

@HighTechBatterySolutionsInc Жыл бұрын

If the battery takes a full charge but lasts for a very short duration of time then your looking at a capacity loss. In this case a replacement battery is recommended to get the full run time of toy.

all power wheel batteries are garbage. for 4 years now I've been using my snapon 18v drill and impact gun batteries with no trouble on my son's power wheels. 18v brings all his power wheels to life and they are fun,and fast. try it out

@HighTechBatterySolutionsInc 2 ай бұрын

In order to find out why you need to test both the battery and the charger to find out the issue...

@kateworkman4040 2 ай бұрын

But why is it not charging? That's what the title eludes to.

@HighTechBatterySolutionsInc 2 ай бұрын

@@kateworkman4040 Test the charger with a voltage meter, if the charger is working. Test the battery, if the battery is fully charged and the toy is still not running them you have an issue with the toy. If the battery is not fully charged after being on the charger for 8 to 10 hours and you know the charger is working, then its a battery issue.
