My retro vpet batteries leaked, it don't turn on !

[GrumpyPoney]

Hi,

I don't know if I'm on the good topic, but here my problem. I bought a retro vpet called space creature brand as new. But as I opened it, the batteries leaked and the pet don't turn on with new ones. I noticed some brown rusty stuff on the connection of the pet. Someone can help please ?

The toy can be saved  ? I hope cause I really wanted it

Hello, that's terrible  There is a chance to save it though! You need to clean the battery contacts with cotton dipped with contact cleaner / something high alcohol based that doesn't leave residue, and hope for the best. . .

What @321Boom said + check the batteries are making contact with all of the metal prongs (bend them a little to ensure good contact).

All I can say is try your best to clean it or scratch of the rust if this doesn’t help there is not much I can do sorry
