How to fix a short-circuited chip inside the Carrera Mario Kart 7 car

Block Image

I was checking the turn motor circuit with a voltmeter. I put the leads on the M2- and M2+ connectors on the internal chip of the Carrera Mario Kart 7, turned on the motor, it ran for a while, then shut off and there was that burned circuit smell. Where do you get a replacement internal chip for the Carrera Mario Kart 7?

Short circuit.

OK never mind I can get a radio chip and a motor driver from the local electronics store, or put an Arduino and make a robot out of it! I am an electronics hobbyist after all, I can do this…
