Barbie Dream House Hot Tub Does anyone know where the batteries go for the hot tub in order to make the lights light up? Also it states in the direction that 6 batteries are needed.

The townhouse we purchased has only 3 AA batteries and the jacuzzi does not light up. You must have another version, how cool! We have a flushing toilet and a timer that ticks. Do the written instructions indicate which items are battery operated?

Our has the roaring fireplace that lights up, the working doorbell, the fridge lights up, the shower makes running water noise and barbie is humming, the kitchen timer makes noise, the chandelier lights up, and the toilet flushes...but no tiki lights on the hottub.

Mattel did a design change mid 2011 but failed to notify it's retailers (such as Amazon) nor did they change the product description and video demo. It's Mattels fault. Call them and complain. They will send you a whopping $10 voucher.

I also have one without jacuzzi lighting up and also without wadrobe :( I think the seller should have mentioned the item is missing these parts.

Jeff, the batt slips end first into the receptacle and under the little bridge that holds it in place. Push it all the way in till it touches the stops at the end and you're set and so is the battery. Make sense? Then the wires are close the the ones attached to the quad. All the quad wires are under the plastic cover! For balance, I insert my batts so the wires are furthest away from those attached to the quad. Usually it's label facing away from me or so I can't see it! Good luck and let me know how you do!

A lot of people plug the charging cable into the wrong place. Do a google search on the Internet for the Lil' Rider and you should find out out where the plug goes. Toy has been long gone from my house so I forgot where it is. It was a great toy when we finally found all the hidden stuff.....ran well and kept a long charge. Would I have bought it knowing our problems? NO

Hello, Akshay. I'm happy to help. First, please make sure your batteries are in place and are installed correctly. They can be accessed from the BACK of the engine by removing the small screw with a Phillips screwdriver. As far as turning the train on, hold the engine with the front facing left. You will see 3 wheels at the bottom of the train. Look just above the 3rd wheel to the right and you will see a small black switch. This turns the train on and off. My model has a small sticker with a red arrow pointing left just above the on/off switch. I hope this helps. Alan

I believe you have to plug it in. I don't see any place where batteries can be put in. I always plug it in.

Hi Sean, it's easier to place all the crystal balls in order and then install the whole fixture to the ceiling. You need 2 people to do this. The way we did the crystal balls is, We placed the chandelier base between 2 chairs and then added all crystal strings. Make sure the chairs don't move. Please let me know if you have any more questions. Thank you

We still have not had to replace batteries yet. My wife played with just 4 cubes until we got a replacement for the cube that came out of the box with a dead battery. We got a replacement for the dead battery around 1 Jan, and she has been playing with all 5 cubes since. We are still using the original batteries, but I have no clue how many actual hours of playing time.Has anybody tried the inexpensive batteries that are available on Amazon yet? (See 4 Jan post above.)ww

This is a late answer, but I had a similar problem. If it works properly, the chandelier should come on when the front door is opened. For the fireplace, push the button for the TV to lift and then push it again. I had to put pressure on the whole fireplace and hold the button in, but it did eventually work. For the shower, push down on the floor of the shower (or press down on Barbie's head while she's in the shower). The refrigerator lights up when you close the door (yes, that's backwards, but that's how it works). The other sounds are pretty self-explanatory (push door bell, push down on kitchen timer, and push button on toilet for their sounds). This is a late answer, but I had a similar problem.

I also bought is as a gift & I know it uses batteries for the vibration/light featurse, but don't know where they're located .....maybe in the carry handle &/or somewhere near the on/off switch for vibration? Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

I had THREE (3) lighthouses; not because I wanted or needed three, but because none of these worked and their very excellent, most responsive customer service rep -in Calif., I think- kept replacing the inoperative product -the WHOLE lighthouse! Frankly I do not recall any battery being associated with the lighthouse itself or in the on/off stake. The fixture was completely solar is my best recollection. I could be wrong. I believe instructions called for the on/off to be in the "on" position while the solar plate was exposed to the sun over a day or so to collect and store energy for nighttime illumination. But not one of the lighthouses worked. I believe the wiring was too delicate to withstand the trip from China. What I did was to purchase a $10 solar spotlight from Walmart which I "jimmyrigged" into the lighthouse tower replacing the inoperative parts. This approached worked beautifully and was further enhanced by the purchase of another Walmart spotlight which I positioned to illuminate the whole lighthouse, illuminated tower included. Really quite beautiful in our backyard!

It's not too bad. You do not need to temove the entire lighting system to change the batteries. You just have to remove each of the 3 battery covers (using a screwdriver). Of course, If you have lights on the front and on the back, you'll be changing six batteries total. It does take a little time and it might be a little tricky just because of where the screws in the battery cover end up being in comparison to the spokes on the wheel. However I don't find it to be that big a deal. The lights are so much fun, so eye-catching, and so helpful in terms of safety, they are well worth the effort!

First thing with me I only put in 4 batteries, 8 just seems to make the thing a bit to heavy, and if it were to fall with that much extra weight it would probably brake. Now when you put in 4 batteries only, place them in the battery pockets that have the white outline, the green outline pockets are only for when you are using all 8. Now when you re attach the bottom, you have to make sure that the center square protrusion lines up with the center square hole in the lantern itself, if it's not lined up just right the batteries won't make contact. It's kind of an odd system, but once you do it a few times it's no biggie. My lantern works fine, and remember you still get plenty of burn time even when just using 4 batteries. Also make sure the bottom is screwed on right, be careful not to strip the plastic threads, the bottom should be tight and even when screwed all the way in place. Hope this helps you out.

Well the lights dont make them move, The motor pushes the water that makes them move. Our motor is located on the right side at the top. Check that! Maybe your lights are working but the motor which makes them move isnt?... Just a thought! Hope this helps!

Yes it's just that silver dot - the batteries that come with those dolls are junk - even the extra ones! We had to go buy new batteries for Aurora and Cinderella. PS - and once you do get them singing you'll wish the batteries were dead ;-)

The one with 3 batteries is the problem. http://www.abc15.com/news/national/no-recall-of-soothe-and-glow-seahorse-toddler-toy-despite-fire-safety-concerns?autoplay=true

Make certain that all 3 batteries are new, don't mix old and new, then there should be a button on the top of the black dome in the center of the yellow tarp. This button turns the toy on. It's also a good idea to push that button to turn it off when your cat is finished playing so that you reserve battery power. If you have all 3 NEW C cell batteries and have installed them correctly and the button doesn't turn it on, you may have received a defective product. I've been fortunate that mine works just fine as long as the batteries are good! Good luck!

Battery has to be completely charged. 24 hours. Train needs to be on track in order to run. Lights need to be lit or battery is not working. I took my battery to a Batteries Plus( Battery store) and had it tested. I ended up buying a new battery for $36 and now the train works great. The train was made by Peg Perego for Learning Curve and they have information about the batteries but I was able to get mine at the battery store. Good Luck! Peg Perego was very helpful with info on this train. They have a website pegpergousa.com and toll free number 18007282108
