Q: My Jack Skellington’s Head doesn’t turn/mouth not moving. How do I fix it?

A: Let’s go through a few quick steps to troubleshoot:

Double-check all cable connections — refer to steps 2.1, 3.1, 4.1, 6.1, and 8.1 in the instruction sheet.
Make sure the adapter (Part U) is firmly connected to the control box in Part D, with the threaded cap fully tightened.
Press the button on the control box three times to set it to Sensor mode — you should see a red light indicator turn on. This mode should activate lights, sound, and animation.
Ensure nothing is blocking the sensor and that it’s properly connected.

Q: The lights aren’t working. What can I do?

A: Jack Skellington’s lights are located in his bow tie (Part M). Here’s how to troubleshoot:

Check all cable connections — refer to steps 2.1, 3.1, 4.1, 6.1, and 8.1 in the instruction sheet.
Try switching between Lights Only mode and Sensor mode to see if the lights respond.
If the lights still don’t turn on in either mode, it’s likely time to replace the bow tie.
