OML thank you so much! I work in the back end of a lowes hardware store and a customer had returned a inflatable decoration that wasn't working so we replaced it and the store told me to throw it away. But sadly my car looked like the work compactor so I accidentally took it home with me. And ofc it was just the adapter that wasn't working so now I've got my first Halloween decoration!
Thank you! This fixed my 4' 2017 Gemmy Paw Patrol inflatable that I was about to throw away! I replaced the adapter with another inflatable to diagnose the problem and it worked!
This was the trick! Got a Halloween inflatable on clearance because it wouldn’t blow up, swapped out the adaptor from one of our other inflatables and boom new inflatable for a fraction of the cost. Thank you!
I thought the same, those things are expensive in my country but sadly not every one has the knowledge or patience to fix them. I would discard them only if they looked too old or discolored, and of course would keep the working parts if they're still in good shape.
Checking the label on my power supply it say's that for a 115 VAC input, I should have a 12 VAC .835 Amp output. Using a multi meter, I found the voltage to be right on. Next, I went to the actual motor and removed the access cover finding that the circuit board inside was heavily corroded and had a broken wire. In addition, the solder contacts were blacked and looked to be cold. For a $30.00 inflatable that's 11 years old, I'm thinking that it's time to replace rather than repair.
Question: My Inflatable is blowing just fine, changed fuses, checked for leaks, repaired leaks. Inflatable is sagging and won't fully inflate, spraying waterproof on it helpful but about an hour later, hoes back to droopy stage. Ideas?
Lordy, your info is good, but with all those adapters I got so confused. But I think it's me. Im not familiar with all these adapters. I have a blow up Turkey and it won't fully blow up. I was trying to figure, why not.
I have a spongebob inflatable that’s 4 feet but it doesn’t have an adapter like this one. It’s just the standard plug and the inflatable won’t stand up all the way. It leans over. Could that be due to the blower or is there a small hole causing it not the inflate all the way? I also am having the same problem with an inflatable snoopy. They’re both about 10 years old.
jacob mcdonald some of the causes may be the age of the inflatable. If it’s been used a lot the fabric gets warn out and doesn’t hold as much air. A way to fix that is to spray the interior of the inflatable with clear fabric stiffener. If it is new then it may be the blower. If so just spray it with wd-40 other than that there’s a site called yardinflatables.com and you can get a new fan from there
Ok, thank you! Yea, we’ve definitely gotten our use out of them. We live in Florida and the sun has completely faded spongebob. It’s hat used to be a bright red and now it’s a light barely red color.
@@esinflatables7678 Will spraying the interior of the inflatable with clear fabric stiffener definitely fix that issue and will it make the fabric all still when it is deflated?
i just wish i could find the power supplies with the outdoor inflatable connectors with enough power on amazon all they seem to have is weak ones that only put out 1 or 2 amps and they claim to do 4 amps but won't work on higher power decorations so i had to get one from a local power supply store and solder it to wires
from El Salvador , Central America, I was trying to fix my one, and as soon I watched your video , I just used another plug in I had available and simple as that ,the problem ,the blower fan started up in 3 seconds.... thank you so much
OMG dude, can you waste anymore time talking? And yes you explained it... over and over and over, like beating a dead horse! We get it, try other adapters. This video can go from 5 minutes to 30 seconds!!

You’re freaking awesome. Glad I watched this video almost threw out my inflatable.
Thank you! Swapped the plug out from a Halloween decoration and worked great!
It worked thank you!!!
Thank you very much. We were going to throw away our daughters favorite inflatable until we came across your video. Many thanks!
I'm surprised you threw away inflatables if they weren't blowing up. You can replace the motor and they will still work.
I thought the same, those things are expensive in my country but sadly not every one has the knowledge or patience to fix them. I would discard them only if they looked too old or discolored, and of course would keep the working parts if they're still in good shape.
Thanks. Swapped adapters with another inflatable I had on the lawn and it worked. Issue identified and currently looking for a replacement. Thank you.
Were you able to find a source for replacement? If so, please share. Thanks.
Man I wish I watched this a month ago when we had this problem! Thanks for the excellent video and sharing your knowledge with us!
Just saved one of my Biggest and favorite inflatable with this trick. Thank you 🙏 😀
Your exactly right. I did what you posted and it worked perfectly. Thank you so much
Thanks for this.And to think I was going to throw it away.It was the plug just like you said
Awesome, you saved me from dumping my inflatable Santa. Thank you!
Saved my inflatable thank you soooo much!!
Worked for me! I swapped it out. Philly? Now to find an adapter on amazon!
Excellent. Where is the best place to buy another adapter and estimated price?
10-15 plus shipping
This saves my two inflatables! Now I just need to find two new adapter pieces. Any suggestions on where to find the adapters?
Amazon has them
Thank you sir!! Exactly my problem!!
Thanks thought was blower but didnt think to check adapter first. Was ready to just replace fan blower first. Will check adapter first now.

I'm hoping this is my problem. Just bought a replacement on Amazon.
Thank you for the hint... I didn't think to do that but your video helped!
what is better for an adapter that has an output of 12v 1.7a...1.5a or 2.0a?
Hello, I have a big animated snow globe inflatable that has stopped working. How can I fix the snow animation again?
Thank you. It worked! ❤️
The fact that I seriously have the same pumpkin inflatable with the same problem
I just got my new inflatable and 2 of the led lights are out can I fix that problem?
Thank you.. the adapter was the problem..
bro this is amazing
Question:
My Inflatable is blowing just fine, changed fuses, checked for leaks, repaired leaks. Inflatable is sagging and won't fully inflate, spraying waterproof on it helpful but about an hour later, hoes back to droopy stage. Ideas?
Where can I buy both the blower and the plug
What if you don't have another adapter can you buy them
What is the OUTPUT of each of the adapters?
Lordy, your info is good, but with all those adapters I got so confused. But I think it's me. Im not familiar with all these adapters. I have a blow up Turkey and it won't fully blow up. I was trying to figure, why not.
I wonder if I can find these adapters online? I think that could be the problem.
You can
I would just like to say make sure that the plugs goes in right in the adapter or it won't work make sure it goes all the way in
You Have No Clue what Your Doing the original will come apart if you know how to Do It just have to tap on it a little
My lights come on but not the fan. Any ideas!
I have extra adapters but they're too small. Any ideas were I can find the exact match?
But the lights turned on?

from El Salvador , Central America, I was trying to fix my one, and as soon I watched your video , I just used another plug in I had available and simple as that ,the problem ,the blower fan started up in 3 seconds.... thank you so much
Our blower works only blows up half of motorcycle with Santa. Front half doesn’t blow up
Thank you because if you I don’t have to throw away 2 of my inflatables for Halloween
I hate the adopter ones I wish they would’ve left them the way before
You didn't show how to change the adapter
My family ues to have 20 Christmas inflatables but now we have six because my dad didn't know how to 'fix' the 'broken' ones
I can’t do it I’m ponnet a air and spin and work
So basically swap out the adapter. Not motor
We have the same inflatable and I don't have it no more
Cómo arreglar el led, eso necesito, como arreglar el foquito que trae dentro
Buenas noches tengo un muñeco de nieve el motor funciona pero no sé hincha que puede ser por favor necesito syuda
i can't see how to connect the adapter. :(
No se vio cuando conectas las puntas x tu mano
I had a old mickey mouse inflatable but my dad threw it away I wish he could of seen This video!
I quit watching halfway through after my eyes started swimming from the blurred video.
Doofas
OMG dude, can you waste anymore time talking? And yes you explained it... over and over and over, like beating a dead horse! We get it, try other adapters. This video can go from 5 minutes to 30 seconds!!
