connectors

SOLUTION
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 battery connector is tightly plugged into the
charger connector, and that the charger is plugged into the wall.
Make sure power flow to the wall outlet is "ON".
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.
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 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.
Check all wires and connectors. Make sure the battery connector is tightly
plugged into the motor harness connector and that there are no loose wires
around the motors.
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 are dead,
contact Consumer Relations.
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.
