NEED help does anyone have a guild or know where I can find a guild on opening the ds that shows the coments and stuff my DS wont charge or anything when I try 2 turn it on the screen wont change and the light comes on for a second then the system turns off I ussuly good with these stuff and I wanna try repairng this instead of paying nintendo $110 for it thats almost the price for a ds lite.BTW i;m using the orgional Ds
I;m looking for a guide that shows the insides of the DS the first generation 1 I need 2 know where the compoets and stuff are cus I want 2 try to repair it on my own because I called nintendo and they said its $110 to repair and thats almost the same price as a ds-lite so I might as well try.
PROBLEM
the problem is when I put the ac in my ds it would only charge for a second then when I press power the green light will come on for a second then go away I even tried this without the battery in the ds.
notes
-I tried 2 differnt acs -its the old DS -the screen does;t even turn on -no sound -absoulty wont charge at all -when I press power the light will only turn green for a second -no clue how it happened I have;nt played it in a long time
It sounds to me like your battery crapped out on you. I'd look for a replacement battery first, or if you know someone with a DS (not the lite), try their battery to see if that works. If you still have the problem, opening your DS won't make much difference, as a component sodered to the main board is probably bad. Unless you have a lot of spare DS parts lying around and an extensive electronics knowledge...
it cant be the battery because I tried using the ds with the ac alone after I took the battery out and it still wont work it has something 2 do with the power I think
Maybe you could go to a Game Stop or another store and see if they have a battery you could try. I wouldn't jump to conclusions like it can't be the battery. I saw a site where they were dissassembling a DS the other day but i can't find it now...but if you Google those words you'll see some sites that have this like one or 2 on You Tube...I'm not sure if they have any original DS on there just lites but check it out yourself.
