Bought Snap Circuits Jr,son loves it but one of the clear pieces broke. Would this kit work to replace the broken part & still be an upgrade to SC300?

If you mean the large clear board then the upgrade kit does not come with one of those. But, if you mean one of the circuit that has a number on it like the motor or the lamp then it would limit you to do the circuit projects that didn't require a fan or motor. I guess I would need to know exactly what piece broke. Because there are quite a few clear pieces in the kit.

The pieces are compatible but there may be some projects that need both the original and expansion part.

The Junior set is the SC-100. The kit (UC-30) you are interested in will upgrade the Junior set to the SC-300, however, I don't think it will have the piece you need replaced. There are only 3 clear pieces in the UC-30 set: A battery pack, a 6V/0.5A L2, and a X1 with a plus sign on it. The Junior set has different clear pieces. You can contact their customer service and order the needed part separately: http://www.snapcircuits.net/support/replacement_upgrade. Hope this helps.

I think the SC300 upgrade has different pieces than SCJR-100, that make up the difference between 100 and 300 project kits. For individual parts you would be better off getting the p/n from the booklet and contacting customer service listed in the book, in my opinion. List of all parts in the kit should be listed somewhere on the mfg website, if you want to compare the content, or call the 800# and ask to email/fax you content/list of both kits.

Depending on the piece that broke, it might have a new one; however, this set just turns the jr into the sc-300 set, it does not have extra parts. If the broken piece is significant, you'd have trouble. The company might replace it, or sell you a replacement part, if you call. We haven't had to call, so I don't have experience with their service, but I've had good luck with other, similar educational companies. Good luck!

It's possible that a hobby/hardware might have the part you need. You could also contact the manufacturer.

I wish I knew the answer to this. Unfortunately, I don't. Probably contact Snapware and talk to a representative.

If the screen is actually physically broken NO, this kit will not fix it. The kit is to replace a bunch of capacitors and a fuse in the power supply.

Tabitha,Like Hawkeye said, if the whole piece is cheap enough, I would go with the whole piece. You're really wasting your time and money (travel time) trying to find a replacement part like this. Save your time and energy and go with a new one!

Yes this would be the appropriate part for your replacement as it is the LCD that has cracked. If the picture never shows up, then it is the LCD but your screen is perfectly functional. Try looking for just the LCD instead it can be much cheaper than buying both and spending more on a part that you don't need. This is all the help I can offer you- Ethan

Sam gave a great answer. In my original response I suggested using a better screwdriver than what came with the kit. I still stand by that.

Timothy, I don't know for sure, but I would assume you could replace it. Not sure what it would cost, but chances are by the time you replace the part, you may be better off buying an entirely new product.

Mine was worked well. It was broken easily, though..... It is hard to repair it..

Mr. Fix says check with the manufactor for parts. If your handy try retrofitting the parts from a hardware store. How'd that break anyway? Good luck.

If you do not have the Junior set, I would recommend you get the Snap Circuits SC-300 instead. It retails at about USD40 and Ranked #1 in Physics Toys & Games. Snap Circuits SC-300 Electronics Discovery Kit

Yes. If it is as same part number as what you use now. You can replace to new one.

Yes along with the micro-farads. The kit will probably contain more than you will need to replace, but it saves youa lot of shopping around.

Yes. This set will upgrade any snap circuits kit except another upgrade kit.

I saw the same thing on youtube and attempted the repair. I found no damaged capacitors and the kit did not contain the correct capacitors anyway. Also, the iron did not work well and I ended up using my old auto repair iron instead.

Yes, the SCC1 will work but you will also need an SNY-SC1 to go along with the SCC1.

my son got the Snap Circuits Jr set first and loved it...then we upgraded to this set (SC750)...and he just uses the parts from the first set as back up or replacement parts...also, the company (Elenco) stands behind their products...if you have a defective part or lose a part, they'll send you a replacement right out...definitely a worthwhile purchase!!
