Are electrics fried or battery dead on kids ride on

enfant terrible

We got a second hand ride on motorcycle recently, father in law left it on porch and it got wet.

Lights and sounds on bike were working when they brought it in but bike wouldn't move so they charged it.

When wife plugged it in they're was a spark off plug barrel connector, but she left it charge away.

They tried bike again few hours later and still not moving and lights and sounds on bike now not working too.

Father in law took battery away and tested it somehow and says it bad.

Is battery likely the problem or did they fry some component by not drying the bike fully before plugging it in?

This the battery on the bike

Probably pcb charging board gone too.

Was given one of these before for free. Tried to revive it but the pcbs were unobtainable. Had to chuck it out in the end.

What voltage did he get on the battery? Its unlikely that its dead. They're fairly resilient

Ya that's what I was thinking, the battery was obviously powering the electronics before they plugged it in so more likely they fried a board then a battery.

No idea on voltage and I'm sure he's well too sauced to ask him now.

Id buy a new battery first, just to be sure.

After that pull out the circuit board and look for obvious damage.

Test the battery first. Don't waste money on random batteries

The father in law already tested it?

Cheers lads,

He says he tested the charger and battery.

He says charger good, battery bad.

Would it not be more likely a circuit board though considering the lights and sounds were working before they tried to charge it and then they stopped working at all?

Would this battery be ok as a replacement?

Had a similar problem with my grandson's car last week- wouldn't charge up with small charger. I took the battery out and charged it with a car battery charger and it now works fine.. .The battery would be around 30euro online.
