I cleaned that a bit, too. It had white spots on it, but that is due to the plastic.

yes, that's it. but wiimote and wii board are swapped.

Does it mean anything if the sensor bar is on the lower part? (left image)

my sensor bar is below my tv, but below is fine, too.

So, press SYNC on Wii, press SYNC on board (power button facing away, Wiimote in sight of sensor bar), turn it back upright and wait?

i don't know anything about wii music, but you probably got the wii balance board on ebay. you probably got one that was listed for parts or not working. always read the description (on the bottom of the page) and the condition before buying, or it's worn out from long use. it's recommend buying a new wii balance board.
btw, can you send me the link from where you bought the wii balance board?

also, can you give me the serial number of the wii balance board so i can match it with the ones found on ebay?

Also, it just had pictures of women using the board. Not even the Big Ben one, just stock images.

This is the SAME EXACT thing, same seller (that scammed me), same pictures, same description, just diffrent website. It says it works, but the seller was very sketchy AND the cardboard was being held up by tape. It also said it came with a game on the cardboard (Wii Fit I believe) but there was just a blank hole.

i saw in the pictures that it is different than most wii balance boards.
it was a wii balance board from a different country, so the wii doesn't recognise it as a wii balance board.
trying to sync a wii balance board to a wii that are from two completely different countries just doesn't work!

also, it looks like there is a wii u instead of a wii in the picture.

I bought Wii from someone who bought it in a store close me (can't remember name)
So, this board is useless (atleast here)

yeah, i know. but it would probably work with the wii it is meant to use with!

 

[AfanGotTheWiiOn26December]

Any way to check what Wii it was supposed to be used with?
