Zoomer Dino Boomer: Out of control - only goes full speed backwards!

Thu, 15 Jun 2023 22:06:54 -0700

I've bought a zoomer dino on Ebay, but I think its faulty. I cannot control his movements - he moves a few times and then goes full speed backwards. It doesn't stop, inevitavly bumps into something and then keeps on spinning his wheels (while upside down) on max speed. I also have problems getting it into gesture mode. I tried pushing the button on his back but without success. My son loves his dino, but it's no fun with it being completely out of control and racing backwards all the time. Any help appreciated!

I inadvertantly plugged my dino robot into a 12 volt aquarium charger. (Had the right end). Initially the robot's eyes lit up green then turned red and then went out after 3-4 minutes. It now does nothing. What do you think is wrong and can it be fixed? Thanks

Zoomer Dino Boomer: He wont stand up, if I press the back button he wont stop going back.

Tue, 21 Nov 2023 11:02:32 -0700

I've have a zoomer boomer for about 5 years. I can't buy a new one, they're expensive now. When I press the "Angry button" or "Back button", he roars and backs up at full speed before falling over and going idle with the green eyes light. He wont respond to hand gestures, and crashes into things as well as walking down the stairs.

I'm fond of the button with the speed icon, where you can control it. It does nothing. The bite button makes his eyes flash red then go blank. The middle button works, I can control his head but that's no fun. His mouth is also always open. It's fun to play with, but now I don't there think much to do.

Anything will help this beaten up mess. (I'll try to pull up an image)

Thank you.

Zoomer Dino Boomer: component replacement: lower jaw broken

Sun, 21 Feb 2021 06:51:37 -0700

The small red plastic support tab (beside the gear teeth) on the hinged lower jaw snapped off - it prevents jaw from flapping down. Makes dinosaur completely non-functional. The whole jaw is removable so could be replaced. Does anyone know if replacement parts (other than circuitry) can be obtained?

Zoomer Dino Boomer: How can I change leg motor?

Sat, 06 Jul 2019 01:46:04 -0700

Sometimes the engine of one of the legs does not start. so either it gets out of balance or it can't stand on two legs at all. I need to check the motor or gear of one foot. I would appreciate it if you could show us how to remove the ZoomerDino's feet. good work.
