I'm modifying toys I've found at thrift stores. I want to be able to flip the on switch and have the toy move until I turn it off. Unfortunately 90% of these toys only work when you turn them on and then press a button to see them dance or go through various motions. I've tried connecting the two wires that go into the button but it only plays through the motion once and then stops.
My idea right now is to attach the wires to a timer so they are activated every 60 seconds or so. Does anyone know how to make a timer like that? Arduino could work but I'd rather do something easier and cheaper.
I attached images of the button that activates the toy. Im hoping to find something that I can just connect to those wires as most of these toys use the same button.
Thank you so much for any help!
