Introduction
If your Voluas VL001 pet feeder audio recording is distorted or is not playing when your kibble is dispensed, this has to do with your speaker. The speaker plays a voice recording of your voice so your pet recognizes when it is time to eat.
This replacement requires special skills like wire stripping and soldering.
