I would check the level of the cells when it says it is dead and see what is going on.

It is possible!

Couldn't hurt!

Thank you!

No problem! Glad it helped!

Wow! You are welcome! Glad it helped!

Oh very nice!

Yes, got lucky, completely unharmed. the tractor stopped straight up like that.

@@fixer2u Ive had a rollover on the side but i managed to jump off and the tractor was fine.

@@maticpogacar ooof!~ Glad that worked out for you! Scary!

Not exactly tamper proof!

Agreed!

You are welcome! Thanks for the comment!

@@EdMacKerrow in an M18 there will be 5 banks. When you have the battery disassembled, on the sides you will see the plastic housing. Look at the bottom on the housing on the sides an you will see + and - symbols alternating as you look down the side. You should see 3 + and 2 - or 3 - and 2 + depending on which side you look on. Thos show you each of the banks.

You're welcome! Hope it helps!

Thank you! That is kind of why I did the video, I found almost zero info on rebuilding a pony other than forum posts.

@@stormorc2057 Awesome! Glad it helped!

Here you go! www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07T941JCF/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Great question! You will not have to do this every time. I have since had to do this a couple of times since making this video. It takes a while for one or 2 of the cells to drift far enough away from the others in order to need this.

@@fixer2u thank you

@@beanboi7233 You're welcome!

Exactly! I bought the Haynes manual for the 79 firebird to get the specs when I redid this one!

That is awesome! She sure sounds good! These boats are definitely heat turners!

@@fixer2u definitely a head turner. Best part was I got it for 1500 cash water ready. I did replace the control cables other than that it a super clean boat and fun..wish you the best of luck with yours.

@@recondrone6826 Thank you same to you!

That is correct!

@@Mrhilljack Agreed!

I have never tested how many miles. I built it for going to and from my deer stand which is a quarter mile one way. For the trip out there and back, it doesn't even take up on bar on the batteries so I would guess several miles.

I have tried that route but has not seemed to make much difference. Wisconsin winters are rough with all the salt! Thanks for the tip thought!

I use the ceramic brake grease, just a little on the rim flange and no more worries. I remember laying under my truck with a 2x4 and a sledgehammer to no avail.

@@crow6763 Good tip!

Always anti size works.

@@willwitt8374 Will have to try!

What the heck?

@@fixer2u exspearament. The battery would not charge. had nothing to loose.

@@mostlikelywedoitservices6926 I suppose! Now you know!

@@fixer2u So nothing has worked so now I am running my light with it. When it goes off due to electronics. I have a small led light fixture with leads. I will hook it up and see if I can drain it even further. Drain it dead then try battery to battery like people have said. then see if the battery will take.a charge normally. because it does charge up because my light is working like a fresh charge battery does in it. We will see. Even though how I charged it nobody else has posted about. lol

@@mostlikelywedoitservices6926 I see!

@@noname47032 That method scares me! Haha glad it works now!

@@Sheedy1979 Aawsome! That sounds like a great setup!

@@colindonaghy8617 Agreed!

Ahhh makes sense.. Thanks for the tip!

Hopefully it straightens you right out!

@@fixer2u it works now, I think it sat fully charged for too long (6 months), they say that is bad.

@@UcantBeSerious03 Great, glad it worked!

​@@fixer2u thanks, saved me a $100. They got enough of my money, between m12-m18 I got 19 power tools.

@@UcantBeSerious03 I hear that!

Thanks! haha yeah I hear you. I should get a straight pipe for that one to make her bark a little louder!

You are welcome, thanks for the comment!

Thank you!

Just ordered a "broken" HD 12.0 battery. Listing said battery won't charge and stuck on one bar. I might start buying my batteries like this to boost up my supply. This will probably go into my new Milwaukee packout radio I purchased yesterday.

Thank you!

@@Kyosama08 Great idea! I had not thought of that!

LMAO yeah I know. I got this one well before I started getting Milwaukee stuff.

I tried my bet but the footage did not turn out when welding . and that did not work even so why show it? I had to take a grinder and grind the heads off... Not much to show just sparks flying. The install was easy, just clips that slide over the frame.

Thanks!

Thank you. I agree, but the main purpose of me doing this was to trade in the truck with the better bed so I didn't think it would be worth the effort.

I am not sure.... It is possible they changed the programming in them so you have to actually use the tool. But that is just a theory.

@@MusicandTractors I feel like they were making an attempt to fix things and took things apart then realized there was alot of work there and just threw it all back together and said "no my problem anymore"

​@@fixer2u🤣

@@RJ9mechwhat's the joke?

@@fixer2u you did a great job putting life back in this old tractor.

@@MusicandTractors Thank you! It was fun! I cant wait to finish getting it operational!

I would try and run a charge cycle again on it... It is possible that one of the individual batteries in that cell is junk...

You are probably right. I never did a followup but it didn't work. On the larger crack, it actually cracked through the flexpaste.

Same! Love it!

Are you talking about the mounting holes on top of the winch?

@@fixer2u yessir.

Thank you!

@@stephenmcconnell4302 I hope it helps!

Good question.. I would think not. That seems like an issue with failing of the individual batteries in the cells.

IT does take a long time. You can turn the mah up from what I listed in the video. I use 2000 on my charger now. But it still takes a while.

I don't think my charger goes above 500

But it charging it. Went from 3.55 to 4.15 in almost 24 hours

@@waterstruck1917 Oh iISee. Yeah that will take a while then. What charger do you have?

@@waterstruck1917 Ooof yeah that is slow... But alt least it is working!

I do not own a supercharger so cannot speak on it and the standard rapid chargers do not have that feature. Looks like the super chargers are quite expensive at $200! For around $54 people can fix it themselves. The point is, we should not have to need to fix it at all. This is a design flaw plain and simple.

I just purchased my supercharger on Amazon July 2nd $46, Milwaukee 48-59-1808 I watched the charger, while doing other things on my tablet, (This is my take on what I observe not necessarily accurate) Milwaukee M18 batteries with BMS circuits are lot more complex than most people think! To save a few dollars with knocked offs, you're asking for problems. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The charger light indicator will flash Red while charging then flashing green during maintenance charging The battery fuel gauge won't turn 4 lights, till, (battery is fully equalized, the four lights on the battery turn off, automatically and the charger will be solid green.) The battery while it is still flashing green the battery level will only indicate 3 bars, if you remove and reinsert it into the charger, the charger will not finish equalization. Maintenance mode apparently will not restart until the batteries are discharged. “Note the last paragraph” ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Below is the full description in the 58-14-1808D8, April 24 manual. A fully discharged battery pack with an internal temperature in the normal range will charge in about 30 to 185 minutes, depending on the battery pack. •Heavily cycled batteries may take longer to charge completely. •The Fuel Gauge lights on 18V battery packs are displayed as the pack is being charged, indicating how fully charged the pack is. The fuel gauge will turn off when charging is complete. •After charging is complete, the continuous green light will come on. •The charger will keep the battery pack fully charged if it is left on the charger. The light indicator will flash green during this maintenance charging.

@@keithjohnson3883 Well that is good to know they have that ability. Sad to know you need a special charger to do that... Side Note, be very careful buying ANYTHING Milwaukee on Amazon. They are not a certified retailer of Milwaukee products so anything you buy on there is likely fake. I have watched many reviews on "Milwaukee" products bought on amazon that really look the part, but are indeed fake.

Like anything else you do on Amazon you have to do your research thoroughly​@@fixer2u

​@@keithjohnson3883 I have that charger but same problem of the video. Low battery but fixed green light if you put it in charge. Dismounted and one of the 3 pack is 0,9V, other two 3,5V

What were the banks at? Then what happened after charging ?
