It's great that these videos live on! It made it super easy to figure out how exactly to charge the battery. The jeep is old. The battery is old. It may not take the charge. This video had me succeed in giving it a go. Grandson is thrilled so far.

Just wanted to thank you for your detailed breakdown of the 12-volt battery/charger. I had searched several listings to determine the appropriate charger to purchase for my 12-volt battery and I was not sure the charger would fit my battery because it appeared much smaller than the outlet on the battery. You very clearly answered all my questions. Thank you!

Thank you for your useful videos I have a power wheels battery, which reads only nine volts. The fast charger will not charge it. The battery has not been charged for a couple of years! I wonder if it would be useful to pry open the top cover and check the distilled water levels? These batteries seem to have Filler caps. If the water level is low, do you think, filling distilled water to the correct level could revive this battery. Thank you and best wishes

I unfortunately do not have any experience trying to add distilled water to bring the battery back. These are AGM series batteries so they will look dry when you take a look at the cells as the electrolyte is absorbed into the glass mat plates of the battery - so adding water may not bring it back to life.

The only indicator light would be on the charger and it depends on what model of charger you get/have. The newer style standard 12 volt chargers no longer have the LED indicator light on them. The only version that power wheels left the led charge indicator on is the 12V quick charger series.

The only new charger that Powe-Wheels sells with the indication light these days is the 12V quick charger. If you have the standard unit without the indication light then your only option is to time the charger. If the battery is completely discharged then it will take between 8 to 10 hours to fully recharge. If the battery is only run half way down then you can cut the charge time in half to 4 to 5 hours.

The typical re-charge time for this style battery is 8 to 10 hours. Unfortunately PowerWheels no longer installs a charge indicator light on the charger, so it would be a good idea to keep track of when the battery is on charge. This charger is not an automatic shut off type, so if you did leave it hooked up to the battery for an indefinite amount of time you will damage the battery.

It will be tough to charge this battery without that plug intact on your charge. The only other alternative would be to somehow connect the charger to the two visible prongs inside the plug of the battery itself. You would either need small battery clamps to do this or fabricate some sort of battery clamp by cutting off the plug on your old charger (assuming it still functions).

The new style charger will not necessarily get warm to indicate that it is charging correctly. If you want to be 100% sure if the charger is working correctly the best thing to do would be to get a voltage meter and test the voltage coming out of the charger when its plugged into the wall. The new style chargers will produce around 14.4 volts.

A standard 12 volt lead acid battery will work in the toy, but do not expect a long service life out of the battery. Motorcycle batteries are made with very thin lead plates designed to produce maximum starting power, versus deep cycle batteries which have thick lead plating designed to withstand being charged up and drained consistently without damaging the battery. The thin plate style in motorcycle batteries will not hold up like a deep cycle -
