Guide for replacing/repairing the two fuses found in both the original Nintendo DS, and the Nintendo DS Lite, this procedure can bring DS's back from the dead, Does your green light come on briefly then go off?, Doesn't come on at all?, Orange light blinks on briefly when a chargers connected, or doesn't come on at all?, this will more than likely fix it completely!

If your screen flickers on briefly when you switch on the unit, the fault is with the hinge ribbon, i will add a guide for repair of this problem soon!

  • Good Video!

    I have a DS Lite that after was placed under a faucet of running water it stopped working. I plug it in and the charge lite stays, appears to work fine. but when I power on, plugged in or not, the green light briefly lights and goes out with a flicker from the bottom screen. Is this still the fuse or did the water do much worse.

    Also, IF I used the easy method, is there a fire risk when I charge it? Thank you.

  • @Wlabatt Unfortunately 95% of single screen flickers are down to screen or lcd connector ribbon issues, in this case probably a shorted connection in the upper screen, to fix this will you need to purchase a new upper screen (it comes with the required cables to connect from the top of the ds to the mainboard), this will fix the problem.

  • I have changed the fuses and my dsl is still turning on well the bottom screen flashes then gots out what can i do next.

  • @jayne1210 The issue is the ribbon cable for the top screen - chances are high that the ribbon for the top screen is damaged, resulting in what you're experiencing, unfortunately that ribbon is connected to the top LCD on DSi's so you will require a whole new top screen to repair it.

  • I bought a charger from eBay to charge my DS and after 20mins of charging I took it out to play, Sometime later while i was playing it shut off. Connecting it to a charger makes an orange light come up and then off. could it be the fuse? I have another DS kite that doesn't work for parts so any advice by I start?

  • @roy360360 This is most likely the fuses.
