This tutorial allows you to diagnose and prepare certain problems with the output audio of the Story Factory v1.

-
STOP! Immediately drop that kitchen knife! Even if you've already opened tons of things with it, it's still not a screwdriver!
-
As a super handyman parent, you do have a real screwdriver hidden at the bottom of a drawer, but until you find it, I'll show you how it goes.
-
For this, I'm going to use a size 2 Phillips (or Phillips PH2) screwdriver. A 3.5 dish will do just fine, all this and being able to reach the screw without damaging the hull of our Lunii.
-
-
-
Let's go ! We firmly hold our Story Factory in one hand and with the other we unscrew the 4 screws that come our way.
-
Make sure that the 4 screws are fully unscrewed by tilting the Lunii, they will fall out by themselves.
-
-
-
Then straighten the Lunii and hold the two top edges each with a thumb.
-
By gently spreading your fingers you should be able to open it without any resistance.
-
Hooray we made it! And a small interesting detail, the adhesive under the Lunii acts as a hinge.

-
-
If the speaker is not working, try connecting headphones to the audio jack.
-
If no sound still comes out, the problem is upstream of the amplification part, and this tutorial will likely be useless to you.
-
If sound comes out of the headphones, continue the investigation.
-
-
-
Disconnect the battery.
-
Measure the resistance between the speaker terminals; it should be around 3 ohms.
-
If the resistance is too large, the speaker is probably damaged.
-
-
-
Turn the potentiometer to the maximum volume.
-
With a multimeter, measure the resistance between the two pins (audio in and audio out) at the bottom, as indicated in the photo.
-
If the resistance is high (in the order of a megaohm) or infinite, the potentiometer and audio jack daughter board are the problem.
-
If possible, replace the daughter board.
-
The problem may be from a blocked contact inside the audio jack, which can be unblocked with isopropyl alcohol (see this forum for more information).
-
If the resistance is fine, the next step describes a hack to work around the problem.
-
-
-
Insert a through-hole resistor of 1 kOhm or similar into the last two pins of the connector, as shown in the picture.
-
Reconnect the battery and test the sound and volume control.
-
If this fixes the audio issue, solder the resistor in place.
-
In my case, I used a 1 kOhm 0402 resistor recovered from a broken circuit board. The ideal resistor would be in the 0805 format.
-
Solder the resistor between the two areas highlighted in pink in the picture.
-
-
-
Desolder the amplifier, which is highlighted in orange in the picture.
-
Reconnect the battery, turn the potentiometer to on, and test the voltage between GND and VBAT. This should be the same value as the battery voltage, between 3.7 and 4.2 V.
-
If possible, play an audio file and use an oscilloscope or a multimeter to verify that a signal is present on the audio input pin, as indicated by a blue arrow in the picture.
-
-
-
Order a TI LM4871MX from your preferred electronic distributer.
-
Clean the contacts and resolder the new component.
-
To reassemble the device, follow the instructions in reverse.

Bonjour, je viens de réparer la même panne sur la V2 des mes enfants. Si ça peut aider certains, c'était dû à l'un des pads de raccordement du connecteur jack qui s'était arraché (probablement celui qui permettait de détecter la présence du jack). J'ai fait un pont en soudant un fil de cuivre pour le raccorder et tout est rentré dans l'ordre.
Bonjour, pouvez-vous préciser quel raccordement vous avez fait svp ? Merci

Sorry I answered in a new comment, you can read it below

Hello, I just repaired the v2, in my case was broken the connection between a pin of the audio output and a trace. If you look on this image Og6TWP2sWsQ14pEC.huge (1600×1200) (ifixit.com) it was the pin under the D6 and the little trace under it. Hope was helpfull. Thank you pasencorecompletemenths for the hint!
