Why does my Furby turns off when I’m trying to do something with her? She will always turns off when I try to feed her, shower her, or play with her. Her eyes will shutdown in like 5to 7 seconds. Or when we try to do something with her. We gave her all the batteries we had but it didn’t worked. She use to work and will be on for about 1 or 1/2 of a minute. Please help me.
It could be that a wire has come loose, or if the furby is also paralyzed its the small 6V brushless DC motor went wrong. I had the same issue. You can replace it with one from a PC DVD reader (this is the door opener motor). Shaft is smaller but it’s ok, diameter is good. You need a solder iron as well to replace electronic part from DC motor.
