Hi! I have zero experience with electronics so please forgive my noobness here. I also hope it is okay to post here and this is a good place to do this, these forums were suggested to me but I'm not familiar with them.
From what I gather this is an RFID chip, when placed on a white soundboard inside a rubber shell it's supposed to make noises from the toy. It seems common online that these stop working over time and corrode as it's an old toy, early 2000s. I had 3 that didn't work, 2 of which I've fixed by cleaning with white vinegar and 99% isopropyl alcohol. This last chip though just doesn't seem to be working at all.
Advice would be so appreciated. Below ill include 2 pictures from the factory schematics, to show how it also "should" look. Does my piece need more cleaning? Is there something out of place, or that needs repairing? I know it's just a dumb toy but it's actually something I always wanted as a kid and they're very hard to come by, getting this repaired is kind of a sentimental thing to me. Thank you!
