We just bought the Leapster 2 for our daughter 2 months ago. The sound started to sound kind of fuzzy and now it just doesn't work at all. She hasn't dropped it that I know of.
We got our daughter a Leapster2 for Chrstmas 08. One day the sound just stopped working. Called Leapfrog. They said to insert a cartridge, and turn the unit on. Plug headphones into the headphone jack. Then rotate the headphone plug-in 360 degrees,( It is easier to hold the heaphone plug-in and rotate the leapster2). Unplug the headphones and check to see if the sound works. Leapfrog said try it more than once, and if it does not work contact them,1-800-701-5327. We tried it and Hallelujah it worked!
We had the same problem - Leapster 2 (Cars Special Edition) with no sound. My son's only had it since Jan 2009 and the sound stopped working a couple of weeks ago (March 2009). Everything else was fine with it. We actually heard it get fuzzy and then the sound cut out altogether.
I replaced the batteries, still no sound. I emailed Leap Frog, who suggested a "trick" of inserting headphones into the jack, rotating the plug 360, and trying that a few times. But that was not successful.
Leap Frog, in turn, issued me an RMA to return the defective Leapster2 to them (at my cost) and are sending me a replacement to me at no cost. If it's not working still, you should contact them via email asap via their website www.leapfrog.com.
