Also Didn’t know you could add a reverse feature to these! I have the 24v Dirt Quad and would love more info on it! Is it simple to do the reverse feature and what do I need to buy? Also would a higher voltage battery make it faster…?! Great channel!!! Make more power wheel and razor repair videos! They get a ton of views…. Adults are always trying to repair their kids toys!!!!
I have to be careful. Since I'm a service center I can't do any modifications or they will discontinue me as a service center. Also there are certain repairs I can't show how it's done for fear that someone will try to fix it themselves and cause a fire. I will do more repair videos. Thanks👍
Hi can you do a video on how to wire up the batteries when you first get them , I put the two reds in the middle and the black with the outer negative and red with the outer positive I thought I did everything right but when I hooked it up something popped loud idk what I did wrong
I will see what I can do. Yes you did wire it wrong. In this case you needed to wire it in line meaning positive to negative when your connecting batteries together. By doing so you change it from 12 volt to 24 volt. If you need 36 volt you go to the end(or beginning) and connect the positive of its positive or negative if it's negative to its opposite to increase the voltage. Do not overvolt it. Goodluck. I will make a video ASAP.
How do I know if I have a bad battery without putting in a replacement? I do not have a new battery yet and don’t know if it’s the battery or something else? Thanks
I hear clicking out of the control module on my Razor Dirt Quad, 2017, what do you think that would mean? Also I plug in the charger...I get power and the green full light comes on, on the handle. I unplug the charger and the low battery indicator comes on. Please explain what you think is going on there. Thanks for the help. Keith
Why does simply adding a reverse feature to the control module take it from roughly $50 on ebay for the 36v setup to roughly $340? But the 24v setup doesnt jump that much when adding reverse but still is jumps to over 100
Didn’t know you could add a reverse feature to these! I have the 24v Dirt Quad and would love more info on it! Is it simple to do the reverse feature and what do I need to buy? Also would a higher voltage battery make it faster…?!
Have a 24v quad trying to fix it for my grandsons . Battery charges but turned on it only gets a clicking sound out of the control module. If not sure what brand the quad is how do you find the right module. Or is the problem in the throttle switch? Would appreciate your help.
I replaced the control module on our razor dirt quad....when I twist the throttle it makes a lil ticking sound but motor doesn't turn ....what else could be wrong
You have two other possibilities. The battery could be low on amps. It may show a full charge but you need to test the amps. To test the amps you have to use a load tester. I use a load tester for a motorcycle it is more sensitive for smaller batteries. You need to teat each battery not all at once because you will overload the tool. Look on the side of the battery it will tell you what the battery amperage is supposed to be. The other possibility is the motor could be bad. I saved a old motor from a razor and just plug it in instead of the other motor to see if it works. If it spins then I know the motor is bad. I hope this helps. Thanks, Jason..
Get a volt meter and test the voltage at the battery while charging. If your not getting voltage at the battery move up to the next junction and see if you have power. Keep doing this until you find the break in the curcit. You can just test the charger to see if it has power but the holes are to small for the probe to go into so you need to find something smaller to fit. You need to be careful not to short out the charger. Hopefully this helps. Goodluck.👍
I have replaced battery, throttle, and controller. Can’t get anything to happen. I have tried spare motors and still no movement. Is there something I can check?
I’m currently trying to fix one of these. My battery is reading 18.4v on the meter and the charger is showing a solid green light when charging. When attempting to use the throttle i hear 1 click from the control module and nothing happens. What are your thoughts? Thank you
The voltage is to low. It looks like you need a new battery. When the battery gets low it can do what your talking about. Goodluck. I hope this helps.👍
@@thomasharris5151 I changed out the control module and the throttle and was still having the same issue. I triple checked the fuse removed the battery reconnected it with no luck. As a last resort I decided to charge it for 24 hours one more time and wouldn’t you know it worked perfectly.
Good for a start, but further testing procedures are necessary. In testing the control module leads I have continuity through all tests, but the motor power feeds do not respond to throttle input. The motor responds to direct battery feed. I have replaced the control module without result and no longer get a green light on the throttle. Did replacing the control module finish your repair? Your results should have been include in the video.
Yes. It did fix the problem. I have had more then a few where the brake lever was not disengaging all the way and the motor cut off switch was still engaged.
I have one i just put a new motor on it and its doing the same thing the old one was sounds like the motor is running but the quad isnt moving. Any idea?
Check to make sure the chain is on the gear itself. If the chain is on the shaft and not the gear it will be going nowhere. If you see the chain moving but its going nowhere then you have a bad freewheel. I hope this helps. Good luck.
I would appreciate any help. I purchased a 24v razor quad for my son. They claimed it was new. Which it looked like it had never been ridden. Anyways charged for 12 hours just like the manual said. Wouldn’t do anything. With a voltmeter tested everything I was getting power into the control module and no power out. Tech support said to replace the control module so I did. Still nothing tested the batteries. They only read 8volts so I replaced the batteries. No I’m getting no power what do ever. Like I said any help would be appreciated. Thanks for the video
This is a little difficult to diagnose without seeing it in person. Did you replace the batteries with the original or aftermarket? If aftermarket make sure it's using the same amps. If the amps fall under a certain amount it doesn't have enough power to activate the relay in the control module sending power to the motor. Do this first make sure the brake lever is all the way open. I have had several were the lever was slightly pulled and activated the kill switch in the lever. Second make sure all the connections are plugged all the way in. Third take the batteries out and have then load tested for proper amperage at your local Batteries Plus store. Fourth test the motor with one of the batteries BUT MAKE SURE THE QUAD IS OFF THE GROUND BEFORE DOING THIS!!!! If the motor spins at this point we know the motor is good. If the motor is good and the batteries test good under load and not just voltage and the kill switch is not activated(you can try unplugging it) Then you may have gotten a bad control module. I have gotten 3 bad controllers in a row before. Good luck!👍
Just found your channel, I like it. I have a question. 24v razor dirt quad. Battery charger flashes red & green and does not charge battery. Is the controller the culprit? Batteries are good, fuse is good, charging port good. In other words I haven't found anything yet. Oh and I did buy a new charger- no luck. Any suggestions?
I fixed my razor by replacing the battery and control module and the charging port and the throtel. But it still wont charge?? Do i need to change wires?
Unfortunately you have a short. If not a short your motor is going bad. Check the wiring inch by inch then check the motor by hooking the battery directly to the motor with a 10a fuse with the ride on off the ground and see if it blows another fuse. I hope it helps. Thanks, Jason.
I have had kids get a ride on toy and it work great for awhile and then start having problems. In some of those cases the kid got bigger the recommended weight. The max weight on this toy is 120lbs I believe. The other problem I have had is the kid is riding in tall grass or even mud. This is not really designed for this. It puts to much strain on the system an blows a fuse. It could be a little of both. Does this ring any bells? I hope something in this helps. Goodluck.
I've checked everything but I am getting a clicking sound, I only get it when the charger is plugged in and the green light on the charger is on before plugging it into the quad and it doesn't go off after it's plugged in... Any ideas?
It sounds like the batteries are going bad. Take the batteries to a Batteries Plus to be tested. I think you'll find that they are losing amps. Goodluck 👍
Hello from the uk! I have the same quad for my daughter and mine has the same problem but I can hear a clicking from the control module dose that mean the control module is fine and it will just be the batterys that need changing? Many thanks! I hope this comment reaches you
Also when I plug in the charger it says full but as soon as I remove it says low and dose not go anywhere so would you also lean more towards a battery problem?
It's the battery. So far everytime that same thing happens to me it has always been the battery. But as a precaution I have a special load testing machine to test the battery. Good luck.
@@swias1 Hi Randy, have one of these razor 4 wheeler. Did you get your issue fixed? Wife pulled it out of someone’s trash and I’m trying to get it running. When I plug in the charger it says full charge but only clicks when I turn throttle. Did new batteries fix your issue. Thx
My throttle was acting like it was stuck. I hit the power switch and it would take off. Disconnected batteries reconnected batteries have green light but no throttle response
Hoping someone can help..my daughter has a Razor 24 volt quad. It started making a clicking sound when turning the throttle and wouldn’t go. Changed the battery and still didn’t work. Just changed the control module and throttle and it’s still doing the same thing. Lights come on and says fully charged. Makes a clicking sound when turned and that’s it. Any suggestions would Be greatly appreciated.
You only have two more possibilities. First the motor can be bad. You can try to test the motor by connecting it directly to the battery. Warning!!!!!!! Make sure the wheels are off the ground and nothing is near the chain. It will take off if your not careful. Red wire to the positive black to the negative. If the motor does not work then you have your answer. If the motor works then check the safety switch on the brake lever. If the brake lever is not fully open it will make clicking sounds and not go. The switch itself my be bad and a new brake lever may be needed. I have had at least two cases were the control module was bad out of the box. I am confident that your problem is the motor or brake lever switch. Good luck! And be careful.
Hey my son electric quad is not charging properly when I plug it up the light on the charger don’t turn red but when I plug it out it’s green I don’t kno what the problem is any solutions anyone ???
Anyone that has changed the batteries, control module and throttle and still having problems, it's the on off switch. I replaced all 3 still had red and yellow lights flashing on throttle lights. Got under and sprayed contact cleaner on the on off switch and got response for a ride.
I have had the same problem. The switch starts to go bad and doesn't send enough power to the control module. I have also gotten 4 bad control modules in a row. Apparently they get bad batch.
Check your charger it may be bad. If the charger is not charging at 26 volts it may be bad. Good chargers always charge slightly more voltage then the battery rating. Also depending on how old the new batteries are I had to swap out a couple batteries before just because I got old stock. I hope this helps 👍
