 Trouble
Shooting Guide
ToysToys child cars
are the world's premier kids cars,
chosen by all the major car
manufacturers to make their branded
ride-ons. Their children's cars are
designed and built to be the
undisputed leaders in the child car
industry and they back this up with
exemplary after sales service.
Totcars operates an
official service centre for Toys
Toys ride-on cars in the United
Kingdom and Ireland. We provide
support, service, spare parts and
advice to assist continued enjoyment
of your child’s car. Good
maintenance can ensure longer life
and a high resale value after a
child has outgrown the car. We
recommend that you preserve the
original box for possible later
transport.
This troubleshooting
guide to ToysToys kids electric cars
is designed to enable parents to
diagnose the issue should any
problem arise with your car:
The Electric
System of Battery Powered Children's
Cars
There are 6
components to the 6volt or 12 volt
electrical system:-
-
The battery and its
charger
-
The wiring and
fuses
-
The hand controls
and its wiring
-
The accelerator
pedal and its wiring
-
The brake pedal and
linked an electrical cut-out
-
The engine that
drives the gears
To identify exactly
where the fault lies, please carry
out the following diagnostic steps:
Battery Charger
The charger’s LED
light should show bright GREEN
when connected to a switched on
electric point and before it
is attached to the car. If the
charger light is not green, your
charger may need replacing.
Fuse
Ensure the fuse has
been inserted and is intact. The car
will not charge or function without
the fuse.
Recharging the Battery
Disconnect the
red and black wires from the battery connection from the car and
fit the red wire from the battery to the charger's
red wire.
The charger green light will go off
and gradually reappear to bright
green when charging is completed.
The battery should not be left
uncharged for more than 2 months and
the first charge should be 14hrs
long.
Checking the Battery
If the car is not
being powered, bypass the battery by
connecting the charger connection
with the white connection of the
wiring leading to the engine. If the
motor works this way, the battery
may need replacing.
Please be aware the
battery is not covered by the 1 year
guarantee. We will only replace a
battery if it is faulty when you
receive it.
Fuses/Wiring/Connecters
Check these are
clean, tight-fitted, undamaged.
Hand Switch Control
This is quite complex
and is well protected but hard usage
or exposure to the weather could
allow wetness or dust to cause
problems.
The Accelerator Pedal and it’s
Wiring
Check for looseness
or damage.
The Brake Pedal
This controls a
spring operating an electrical
cut-out bolted underneath the car.
When the brake is released, the
spring must allow the moveable bar
back into the cut-out box. If this
bar does not fully slip back, the
car’s electrics are cut out.
If any fault or
damage occurs please contact Totcars service via email at
technical@totcars.com
with full details of the problem.
