Hannah Montana MP3 Player - Volume Fix

I bought my daughter a Hanna Montanna MP3 player from JC Penny for her birthday. It was on clearance, and she saw it and said she wanted it, so I went back later to buy it.

Well the night before her 4th birthday party, I opened it up, to charge the battery and load songs onto it, so its ready for her.
Well I got it loaded easy, didnt need the drivers for XP.
I tested it and the stupid volume controls didnt work.
So I had to try to fix it for her, cause it was after midnight, and I didnt have time to exchange it before her party.

So I opened the case up, simply with 1 small Phillips Head screw at the bottom.
Then the rest un-clips from the bottom up.








Once its open, peel off the battery pack, that has double sided tape.
Find the 2 volume buttons, there marked on the board.

There are 4 terminals for each volume control. I think they only use 2, thats logical, but the other 2 are for mounting.









I simply added a tiny amount of solder to each of the pins, using a 25 watt soldering iron, and WALLA! they work now.
I'm not sure what pin on them was bad, but it doesnt hurt to touch up on them all.

I dont know if maybe this one was just bad, or if there are others with problems, but I put this out here, in case other people have the same problem too.
Good Luck!
