I’ve tried taking the old batteries out and putting some new ones in, nothing. I’ve tried turning it on, nothing! I’ve tried pressing the button on his foot multiple times for an hour straight, nothing! This is one of my favorite toys and I would like to play it again! Please help me! The toy I’m tried to fix is the Disco Dancin’ Wubbzy (L9257) from Fisher-Price/Mattel, made in 2008.
Here’s a video on what the toy should be doing: https://youtu.be/N_oM1c2uGJM So if the battery case is corroded, then clean it and see if that works. I advise to try to wiggle your wubbzy back and forth and move the arms up and down, on how it should dance, it can sometimes get stuck and this can help start up the toy. If this does not work, you’ll have to take apart the toy, the button on his foot could be jammed, a wire could have came unsoldered, or the motor may need to be lubricated. If the toy starts moving with no sound, then it’s the speaker wires or the speaker needs to be replaced.
