Sparki doesn’t light up or move
Sparki’s electronics can be powered by either the USB or the internal batteries, while the motors can only be powered by batteries.

If the electronics light up via USB, but not on batteries, try the following:
If on battery power alone Sparki’s electronics work, but the motors do not move, it is likely that the batteries have enough energy to power the electronics, but not the motors. Again, try fresh batteries, and make sure the on switch it on. If neither of these things work, contact [email protected]

If the electronics light up via USB, but not on batteries, try the following:
- Make sure the On switch is on. It is on Sparki’s left rear, next to the USB port.
- Make sure the batteries are fresh. Try new ones, or fully charge your existing ones.
