i rode through the whole central park but when i twist the throttle the green light goes out and come back on when i stop. what does that mean?

The lights measure voltage. Since you are consuming voltage with the throttle open, it shows a voltage drop. No worries, when you let off the throttle, your remaining or potential voltage is shown. Also remember that the wider you open the throttle the more voltage you consume. Putting along slowly will take you farther. I can generally get 15 miles on a charge, and that's in hilly Tennessee. I rode mine around the block until it ran out to judge my distance until empty at first.

The only time that happens with mine is if it is not properly sitting on the track. Other than that I really have no idea.

If you wire it up according to the schematic for a park position It is supposed to go back to park. mine on the other hand is not. I have not had time to troubleshoot if it is my wiring or a defective device. it's very possible I forgot a wire ??

This is what is see on my controller: NO TRAILER HOOKED---NO LIGHTS, NO TRAILER, HIT THE BRAKES---NO LIGHTS; TRAILER HOOKED---GREEN LIGHT, TRAILER HOOKED, HIT BRAKES, RED-ORANGESSS LIGHT. Let me know if you have more questions. This is a great product :-) .

The light on top was alternating red/green. I thought it might mean the batteries, but I checked & they are fully charged.Now, I can't get it to work at all, no lights, no pump, nothing...yes, the batteries are installed correctly. Any ideas?

I am assuming they mean while riding it and the button to make it go is being pushed. Because that is the only on button, and you wouldn't charge it then anyway...lol. Great toy, my 4 year old is tough on it and uses it all the time. He has had it four months and its still perfect and charges great!!

Mine did the same thing. Called traxxas and they walked me through resetting the battery mode. No charge for the call. Somehow I put it in the wrong battery mode.

There are 2 batteries in the bike. The panel is powered by a simple 9 volt battery. The rechargeable battery shown here provides the resistance for the wheel. However, if this battery runs down, the panel will not light. I would suggest trying to replace the 9 volt battery first since they are cheap. If that doesn't work and especially if there is little or no resistance when you start pedaling, then you may need to replace this one.

You cannot have red and green lights on at the same time I believe. You could have clogged jet if you've used tap water (deposits). I've only had mine a couple of weeks and am just brainstorming. Call the Oreck hotline/ 800 number and ask for the company's input.

If you start it and it starts speeding up, just turn it off and then hit the red button and it will do the constant speed. I think it does this because perhaps we hit the green button when turning it on and it speeds up. So just stop and restart with red button and it will be fine.

Safety Feature: Put it in the water first..with battery connected..turn on the transmitter..when the green light on the transmitter is steady green..pull the throttle trigger..

I thought my battery was dead, but was not. I initially had to fidget around several things. The bottom part on right fork has to be tilted in towards the wheel to get as close to magnet on spoke as possible. Spin the wheel a few times and check how the magnet travels past the sensor. It has to be close and on specific path or it won't read. Once you adjust magnet to get right path on spinning and sensor is tilted in a bit and positioned correctly, you should have success. It took me a couple tries, but once you have it, no problems.

Once you stop peddling, and leave the bike it times out and turns off. Also if you choose a program by mistake and can't clear it just let it time out... Enjoy and happy riding... ~ Kathleen

You have two modes, pas= where you have to pedal to activate the motor;(. Or the tag mode touch and go ;) just turn the throttle and off you go.

I have the same problem. I noticed that it's not actually resetting based on how long I ride, but it resets whenever I try to change the resistance. So, if I manually push the button to increase the resistance it resets immediately, if I use program mode it resets whenever it reaches the first jump in resistance, and if I ride in manual mode with no increase in resistance it never resets.

Ours did the same thing! Battery was good and grandson rode it for about 10 minutes. The motor that runs the bike is defective . This is why I gave the product a bad review. It is not worth the cost as it is poorly engineered.

When you are checking the charge are you pushing the pedal. There is a switch on the dash that cuts power. Is that in the correct setting.
