Fixing My Child’s Ride-On Toy: A Circuit Board Swap

Introduction:

As a parent, there’s nothing more frustrating than seeing your child’s favorite toy break. This was the case with my child’s ride-on toy, which stopped working due to a faulty circuit board. I wasn’t about to let a simple problem ruin my child’s fun, so I decided to fix it myself by swapping out the old circuit board for a new one.

Part 1: Identifying the Problem

The first step in fixing the ride-on toy was to identify the problem. I tried a new battery and did not work. After troubleshooting the toy, I determined that the issue was with the circuit board. The board was damaged and no longer functioning properly, causing the toy to stop working.

Part 2: Finding a Replacement Circuit Board

Once I knew the problem, the next step was to find a replacement circuit board. I searched online and was able to find a compatible circuit board for the ride-on toy. I ordered it and waited for it to arrive.

Part 3: Installing the New Circuit Board

When the new circuit board arrived, I carefully followed the instructions to remove the old circuit board and install the new one. It was a simple process and only took a few minutes.

Part 4: Testing the Toy

After installing the new circuit board, I tested the toy to make sure it was working properly. To my delight, the toy was back to its old self and my child was able to enjoy it once again.

Conclusion:

Fixing a broken ride-on toy can be a simple and satisfying task for any parent. By identifying the problem, finding a replacement part, and installing it properly, you can save yourself a lot of money and frustration. Happy tinkering!

Bonus: I was able to get a conversion kit for my drill battery and it took the ride on toy from getting 12volt to 18volt. An easy 2-3mph faster, which became pretty fun to watch!
