GPW 57 - Fisher Price Baby Swing Motor Repair

[@msvictoriasue]

thank you so much. had air wic freshner in my bathroom, spent $6 on flex, blood sweat and tears, I had it fixed. no one believed in me, even doughted myself. I'm a single mom and this was something to be proud of. thank you

[@GPWoodworks]

I think you should be proud! Glad it helped.

[@MrWilly0839]

msvictoriasue hi did u use the airwick motor on its own w out the diodide n cap or did u install that as well? Wondering how has it been workin for u

[@vvvDaRkAnGeLvvv]

I actually managed to pull it off the airwic motor as a whole so I re used the diode. I broke the ground taking it off but it still worked. It works wonderful to this day. I really don't know how to solder so find someone who does, it saves your sanity. I don't know how this thing held together, I was so sloppy.

[@joshfox2916]

I just did the fix on Nov 12, 2018 and Air Wick still has the correct motor. The capacitor and diode are NOT required - they are for electromagnetic compliance and required for selling the device.

[@texxxann]

This might have been just bad luck on my part but I ordered this motor on eBay trying to be more efficient. Looked identical. Attached it, worked but wasn’t powerful enough to move the swing. Flipped it around wondering if that was the problem... no difference. Went and bought the Air Wick in a last ditch effort, worked perfectly. Unfortunately now my swing cannot be repaired again because we had to cut the wires for 3 fixes. Bummer. I’d love to save someone else this trouble and I’m going to post this in several places. Buy the Air Wick!!! (No disrespect to the person who shared this information, again this might have just been bad luck on my part but would really love to save someone else the trouble)

[@joshfox2916]

@@texxxann Apologies for any inconvenience as a result of my comments. I do not recall the exact details of that motor but I have edited my comment to reflect your experience. If you do need to repair again (hopefully not) you can get crimps and a crimper from a hardware store to connect the wires.

[@texxxann]

Josh Fox no problem! This totally could’ve just been bad luck on my end! Would love to hear from anyone else who has tried ordering the motor?

[@chriscopeland3916]

Man, every time something breaks around the house all i have to do is KZbin a solution and someone out there has been there and done that! My little guy (4mo) loves his swing and we were terrified when the motor crapped out over the weekend. Long story short, I bought an Airwick at Dollar General and it works again! I can't believe the Airwick has the same damn motor as a FP baby swing. The local hobby shop didn't even have the right motor and it was under my nose this whole time...in a damn Airwick...at Dollar General! Props to you for the awesome video GP.

[@GPWoodworks]

Thanks for that. I can't take credit for the Air Wick solution... someone smarter than me found that one. :) I hit KZbin for my solutions too... it is an awesome resource.

[@lesliewarner9579]

Thank you for showing yourself soldering the wires together

[@workin4weekend318]

Amazing - thank you! I did mine tonight. Used an air wick ultra and I soldered the green and yellow wires right to the motor (checking connection pattern prior) I also soldered the diode and other pieces that were on the old motor. Then I saw my circuit board had a piece broken off from the motor giving out so I soldered the component back onto the circuit board. Now it works great! Amazing that it takes an air freshener motor.

[@sonofdarkmooness]

Thank You. My swing died in the middle of the night last night. Googled how to repair the swing and your video showed up. Watched your video a couple of times and went and bought the air wick to replace the motor. In all it took about 30 minutes from start to finish. Thank you again!!

[@GPWoodworks]

I'm glad it helped. And, thanks for chiming in. It's nice to hear that people are getting something from my vids.

[@texxxann]

TIP!!! I found in the comments here the part number for the supposed Air Wick motor. I ordered it for $5 off eBay trying to be more efficient. Looked identical. Attached it, worked but wasn’t powerful enough to move the swing. Flipped it around wondering if that was the problem... no difference. Went and bought the Air Wick in a last ditch effort, worked perfectly. Unfortunately now my swing cannot be repaired again because we had to cut the wires for 3 fixes. We also managed to mess up the music with all the fiddling around. Bummer. I’d love to save someone else this trouble and I’m going to post this in several places. Buy the Air Wick!!!!

Thanks for video and links! Just ordered a replacement motor. You are going to make a happy family when my little boy can enjoy his swing again!

[@nicolelyles6018]

very helpful comment if you need to do this again. if you close the base legs it opens the cross way bar on top so take off the 2 screws holding the brown plate and with the support legs closed they will be straight and the bar will come right off then you can get to the back screw to remove the cap over the rocking part of the swing

[@Timscleite]

Thank you! Just repaired mine without my husband! Our swing died after a couple months on our 3rd child so it's had a good run!!

[@GPWoodworks]

Good for you! I've been trying to convince my wife for years that she should try to do things instead of asking me. LOL!

[@williamkholeif]

thanks man, you're a life saver! just an FYI: the airwick freshmatic has been replaced with the freshmatic Ultra. Reading online it seems that new motor will not drive the swing, I can not verify this but I did find the knockoff walmart "great value" dispenser to be near identical to the orginal airwick freshmatic....I used this walmart knockoff and it works just fine.

[@GPWoodworks]

Thanks for the info! A lot of viewers have been sharing info here. It's awesome!

[@jessemortensen7947]

[@SheltoniaNation]

Ha HA! Thanks for this video. I have linked it on my social media because it saved me so much money and I spent very little time with the actual repair. I bought the version with the diode and cap (I can't solder and it's just more cost effective to buy that instead of a $7 air-wick). It's capped, but I didn't have electrical tape. Test run with 2-month-old starts tomorrow. Wish us luck!

[@GPWoodworks]

SheltoniaNation thanks for that... keep us posted.

[@allinebol16]

Hi, my swing mobile doesn't work, can you tell me how can i fix it?

[@hjohnsh6070]

I had trouble reinserting the motor/spring assembly. If you disconnect the brace between the legs and move the legs together, you can remove the brown bracket above the motor assembly. Remove the two screws on the cap of the swing, lift it up, and you can pop the motor assembly right in instead of contorting the motor assembly around to get the spring arm to go back in the swing.

[@GPWoodworks]

That's good advice. Thanks for sharing it.

[@awldune]

I had different model of baby swing die on me a few months ago! I wonder if these very low voltage electronics are especially failure prone.

[@GPWoodworks]

Not so much in general (in my experience). However... I found an insane number of complaints about this very failure to this line of products.IMO There should be enough of a mechanical advantage (with the worm gear setup they used) for this to last a good long while... but it seems that they have had issues with this motor failing. Bad batch maybe?The fix is easy enough if you have a Philips screwdriver, even for the not so mechanically inclined. I mean... if I can do it...

[@krispy5139]

What voltage goes to the motor? im only getting 0.5 volts or less, so mine does not work properly... I tried applying 6v but the motor goes way too fast. I will try a lower voltage.

[@vitaliypastushok]

Did you figure it out? Ours had something like 2.38 volts running to it, am not sure if it's an issue with the potentiometer or is intended to be low voltage. I noticed repositioning the potentiometer (blue thing with a screw on it) seemed to up voltage to 2.38 or so and it would spin but not sure if that's the intended value of the potentiometer or its just bad in general

[@GPWoodworks]

I have no idea. If you have the same power design (low volt power supply) you can run the swing while it is open to see where the clicking is coming from. That should lead you to the problem.

[@GPWoodworks]

It sounds like you may have bigger problems than just a dead motor. If you have the skill, check that voltage is present at the connectors on the board when you turn them on. If the voltage is thee then the problem is with the motor side of things (bad motor, broken wire etc). If the voltage IS NOT there, then the problem could be the switches, the traces on the board or a component in between. Sorry I can't be more helpful.... Good luck.

What is the blue cord connected to. mine won't swing but my blue cord isn't connected to anything...like when you pull the motor holder out, the blue is under it

[@GPWoodworks]

If your swing is the same model as the one in the video... there will be a jack on the control board that is the same color as the connector on the blue cable. You can see where it is on the board at 1:22 in the video. On mine the connector was light purple and had a matching jack on the board. There should be labels on the control board next to each jack that tell you what they do.

[@ahardb0dy]

on the one i have, the blue wire ( can't recall the other color wire) that runs down the center is for the mobile, brown wire (can't recall the other color) goes to the speaker, red/black wires are power from the batteries to the board, and green/yellow wires are for the swing motor

[@GPWoodworks]

If you run it with the top off, you should be able to find the problem. If the motor is running but the swing is not swinging, the problem should be mechanical. Start there.

[@workin4weekend318]

Hi I had the same problem. Check your circuit board.

[@MrWilly0839]

Hi i just finished fixing my babies swing same way u did i didnt use the diodide or caps can it by n e chance catch on fire or n e thing like that? Just want to keep it the safest for my baby.

[@GPWoodworks]

Anything electrical can catch fire. The diode and cap are there to protect the components on the control board when you turn off the swing function. When the motor is turned off, there is a reverse current that flows from the motor to the control components. The diode and cap help to reduce this effect. While it is usually best to put things back the way you found them, I chose not to do that in this case. There is a link to this same motor, with the diode and cap already installed, in the description. If you feel concerned enough, you can use that one.

[@MrWilly0839]

GP Woodworks did it work for u a long time w out the diodide n cap

[@MrWilly0839]

GP Woodworks im sorry for so many questions im new to this idk nothing about this bt ur video really helped me get thru it step by step

[@GPWoodworks]

It's not a problem. I did this repair for the wife's grandson long before he was born and he has yet to visit. So, we haven't used it other than the test you saw in the video. The swing works but I don't have extensive use of it. There is a level of risk any time a repair is made. The risk doesn't go way if someone else does the repair, you just have someone else to blame IF things go wrong. If you do this repair again with the diode/cap version of the motor, you would at least remove your concern about it. It won't remove the possibility of a problem, but you would have put the swing as close to factory condition as you could. I hope this helps... I'm on my way out the door but I will revisit this comment string this afternoon in case you have more questions.

My swing and music work fine but when i try to turn the mobile on it makes a very loud clicking/tapping noise and doesn’t spin. I know my 2 yr old son would try and play with it while baby was swinging. I’d bust him! Is the motor bad on it now?

[@GPWoodworks]

Judging by the clicking sound... i'd guess that a gear is broken or jammed, and it's mating gear is skipping over it.

[@wgoose0912]

GP Woodworks I just saw your reply! So sorry!! I’m finally getting around to seeing if I can fix this. Think that gear is fixable?? Any idea where inside it’s located?

[@GeekRawker]

[@GPWoodworks]

it worked for me. it's always technically best to put it back the way it was. yours is your call.

[@youllnevergetmynumbr]

It's been two years, so I know you guys probably don't care anymore, but here is the reason for the diode and cap for anyone having this problem today. When this motor spins it can create voltage spikes, which if it made it back to the board could cause trouble. The diode redirects any extra juice to the capacitor, which is able to store it and release it gently back into the system. It's just an added layer of protection that is probably worth the VERY small investment and solder job. Really any small diode and cap would do the trick.

[@ahardb0dy]

Mine has same gear box but doesn't have the metal bracket that runs across the top, motor tests good and does work, voltage regulator was bad, replaced it ( hooked up backwards I think and killed the new one !) anyway, connected the motor directly to power supply I have and everything works but swing will not swing, stuck right now tried all I could think of but still will not swing, even if pushed to start it to swing. Power supply has variable voltage and even at different voltages swing still does not swing.

carla varner Too many possible causes to list here. Make sure the outlet is powered. Plug in the power supply (not connected to swing) and check that its working. This is best done with a volt meter. Basically you need to check from the outlet to the circuit board for power until you find where it stops or find the faulty part. Sorry I can't be more help. A full explanation would look like war and peace.

[@carlavarner6288]

I appreciate you taking the time to respond and explain

[@soran2484]

Wondering if there's an issue with the strength of the replacement motor (or perhaps I just have a fat baby *true*). I've verified that the polarity of the wires is right. I've tested for voltage, and still showing between 4.2 and 5.4 volts feeding to the motor, but these replacement motors just don't seem strong enough to swing the swing under load. Anyone else experience this, and what have you thought to do to fix it? I ordered a few motors from Newegg last week www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA6704N22094&nm_mc=TEMC-RMA-Approvel&cm_mmc=TEMC-RMA-Approvel-_-Content-_-text-_- that appear to be higher torque, and the same size. Not sure if I'll run into issues by putting these into the swing, but at this point, don't think it could hurt to try. All thoughts welcome :)

[@GPWoodworks]

It sounds like you covered all of the electrical bases. I can't see it hurting anything. They ARE slightly different motors. The one from Surplus shows a higher current(.05A) in the specs than the NewEgg motor(.028A). This USUALLY translates to higher torque. They list different units for torque on each model (21g-cm vs .588Nm). I did some math (1 Nm is equal to 10,197.16213 g-cm according to onlineconversion.com/torque). This represents a difference of roughly 285X the torque in the same frame of motor at the same voltage and less current. I find that a bit confusing. I would say, if you have both, try both. Leave the motor in that works best. Please let us know what happens.

[@soran2484]

With a push start, the weaker motor salvaged from the air wick is still functioning, and so I haven't put the new motors from Newegg in yet, but just wanted to offer that the slow boat from China took its time arriving, so anyone looking for an immediate fix would do better to swing by WalMart like I did. If/when that motor burns out, I'll be updating here to let you know how the Newegg motors perform.

[@GPWoodworks]

Thanks!

Well, the Air Wick motor officially burnt out again yesterday. Was excited to put in the Newegg motor, but after soldering on the cap and diode, and fitting it in place, it appears that it is too slow in the RPM department to toggle the swing like it needs to in order to have any sort of a decent rock. It muscles through it, but it doesn't effectively swing the child. Guess I'm back to looking for the proper motor for cheap.

One question. Why are your nails so long?

[@yuriymazur8975]

Okay thanks!

I was thinking to send you a video in what problem is but don't think it will help you what is the reason right?!

What is wrong with your finger nails....

There is a history, on my channel, of people telling me to cut my nails. I think my wife puts them up to it. :)
