Does anybody know how to refill the color eraser? Mine has no water in it, and I can't figure out how to refill!

Hi, Mine never did have any water in it???? My problem was that the markers had no color, therefore when you tried to draw something, nothing showed??? I thought it was defective, sent it back and bought another...same thing???? Do your markers work?

From all the research I have done, you CAN'T refill it. I also can't find replacement erasers so I am not entirely sure what a child is supposed to do after the 10 uses that the eraser pen seems to last. Very poor design if they aren't going to sell replacement erasers!

No problems yet, but only one refill. Check to be sure that there is not ink on the chip at the bottom front of the cartridge or on the pins that make contact with the chip. Clean them with a Q-tip and rubbing alcohol to see if that helps. As for the colors, try the cleaning function that was mentioned in another answer. You can also remove the print head to see if there is any spilled ink on those contacts. If all else fails and you are still missing colors, soaking the print head in Windex for a couple of days, then rinsing in water can help dissolve clogs.

I have this pencil and have bought replacement erasers. Here's the link: Uni Mechanical Pencil Eraser Refill S (SKS)

How do you access the eraser? I don't want to break this thing looking for it.

take the little cap off & add one drop of water to the tube. this should rehydrate the pen. otherwise HOW SHOULD I KNOW??? i bought these pens & mine work fine....i did not invent nor manufacture them. sorry....just had to do that.

Those look to be the correct refills. Are you sure you are looking in the right place for the eraser? If you take off the cap and put it on the back for the pencil, then the small silver cap that you use to advance the lead can be removed to reveal the eraser.I hope this helps.

No it seems you are missing a part. There should be a long plastic 1/4 inch wide container that you can fill up with water (it holds only about an ounce or so of water). It has a sort of magnet on it and it sits on the bottom of mint cleaner and you also wrap the cloths around it. I do wet that cloth a bit to give it a little cleaning "boost".

New way to fill; take out 2 screws from metal plate, slip one end of metal plate up carefully, see the reservoir, start slowly pouring in dry ink.shake to settle, pour more, repeat etc, got 90% in, set plate, insert screws, put in new chip, might have to restart computer It worked for mejust don't get in a hurry

I've been able to refill my color cartridge two times already and it's barely made a dent in the color refills. I would guess I will probably be able to refill my cartridge at least 10 more times, and that's only if they were bone dry each time.

I had the problem at first too. I discovered when you fill it to the line, it doesn't work. So, I go a little below the line and it works fine. Try that!

I have not had this problem. Check that you have installed it correctly. Check for obvious defects. If all else fails, try the 2nd refill. Good luck...

I noticed that mine won't work if its low on water, so make sure it has the recommended amount. It seems after an hour of use it needs refilling.

I have not been able to find refills for this. I can say that my granddaughter got those Color Hues (?) for Christmas and uses those in her hair and Barbie's color chalk hair. No problems yet...

I used magic eraser.... Did a test before completely cleaning, and seems to be okay. I have some slight shadowing left over, but not nearly as bad as just water and a paper towel. Also, I used liquid chalk pens on the paper. Overall, I'm satisfied.

I use my own jar as well. Take the pen apart and inside is a clear cartridge looking thing. Make sure it is securely in the pen, just push down on it and if it doesn't move, should be fine. The thing at the top spins which makes a plunger lower and raise, spin the plunger all the way down. Dip the pen in the ink, I dip the entire head of the pen in, and then spin the plunger the opposite way so it raises. It should then suck the ink into the cartridge. My pen takes me 3 or 4 tries before it fills a decent amount, it does not fill it 100%, most I've got was half full.

push down on the green button while pulling the top of the clear plastic container; it is a little tight but should release. there is a black plug on the bottom you remove in order to refill.
