Hi houseofdoa, sorry to hear about your Furby issue. I did some looking around and I did discover that this indeed can be a problem with the Furby's but the good news is there seems to be a fix.

I found this guide that will walk you through exactly what tools you will need and how to do it

I really hope this helps you get your Furby's "back on their feet"!

I'm having the same problem with two furbies off ebay, both brand new in box, from two reputable suppliers. What's the odds that all seven furbies have something wrong with them? Small to nil. I think it's the batteries, we're not feeding them 1998 batteries and I dont think they like it too much.

Have you tried restarting? It's different from resetting. You have to keep his tongue down (as if you're feeding him) while resetting. This worked for me when Furby didn't move, only made sound. Good luck! (If you still have it, it's May already)

I just did surgery on my sons furby and fixed this problem. His would move and no sound would come out. Keep the Furby on and go to the right side of the Furby which is where the speaker is located. Cut a small slit in the fur, small enough that your kids won't notice. if you look underneath the fur you will see the speaker. It is plastic and it has a whole bunch of holes in it. Right under the plastic there is a membrane sort of things. I found it when I took a nail or something small and pokey that fit through the holes and gently gently pushed on the membrane in certain spots it would start making noise again. Must have a short or something in it. Once you find the spot that let's it start making noise again find a very small, about a centimeter long, machine screw which is the kind that don't have a point on the end of them but are flat instead. Screw it into the hole until it pushes against the membrane and leave it there, and that should keep it talking. This should keep your kids happy

The problem with your furby might be that it needs new batteries that was the problem with mine when that happened.

i dont really know how to turn my furby boom off? help!!!

there should be a reset button of some sort on the part where you put in batteries, if it doesn't work after putting new batteries in and pressing reset, it could be tore up.
