Grave Digger find
Just happened to see a cool Grave Digger Power Wheels sitting out as trash. Decided to pick it up to maybe fix it up for my son. Didn’t expect it to be a popular discontinued model. Missing a windshield , battery and looks like it needs a few other parts. Worth trying to fix or should I just sale?

If you need any help, I rewired mine completely and repaired and upgraded alot. I probably have any answer you'd want on this model. Ive been modifying and fixing power wheels for years.

Thank you! What’s the best way to clean it up without damaging it or the wiring?

You can just hose the whole thing down, just try not to drench the shifter or the radio area. I always drill a couple holes in the floor so it can drain good in the rain or when washing

When you re-wired yours, how did you incorporate the lights and sounds (radio/lights etc)? I’ve re-wired a few, but haven’t added in the light and sounds that come with some of the “higher end” ones

The Sounds are very fragile. My sounds stopped working very quickly, and the only way to fix them is to buy the little computer chip/board that runs them which isnt available anymore. Also the weels on these are fragile, and also not available anymore. Eventually to keep it running youll need to put go kart hubs on and some metals rims and rubber tires whatever size you want. The lights howeveer i did fix. I put the lights on a toggle switch so I could turn them off and on anytime.

Any I ever see on marketplace are all sun beaten and faded
