Nintendo 3DS: Nintendo 3DS não liga

Mon, 19 Jan 2026 07:01:35 -0700

Olá Galera!
Me chamo Neto e estou com um problema no meu Nintendo 3DS já faz alguns meses.
A algum tempo atrás fiquei sem carregador de 3DS, nisso eu enrolei pra comprar outro porém depois de um mês comprei, quando botei no meu 3DS para carregar, deixei carregando um bom tempo e nisso daí quando liguei ele não queria ligar de jeito nenhum. Ele aparece o LED laranja de carregando porém eu aperto o botão power mas não ligar. Depois de um tempo tentei novamente, mas agora aconteceu uma outra situação. O Console ligava o led laranja e depois de um tempo o led sumia, tinha que tirar o carregador e botar de novo para ligar, porém sempre sumia. obs: tentei com outra bateria de um colega meu que estava funcionando normalmente, porém sem sucesso.
Quem puder me ajudar, agradeço.

Nintendo 3DS XL 2015: Blue light turns on but nothing else turns on

Tue, 26 May 2026 15:19:47 -0700

I took apart the system to replace the XYBA button contacts and then after putting it back together the system had an issue with turning on and then turning off with a pop. I have since fixed that problem by replugging some cables however now the system blue light turns on while nothing else does. If i charge the system the orange light will turn on but will immediately turn off upon turning the system on. If I remove the sd card the blue light turns off immediately instead

I think i found the problem

Nintendo DS Lite: whys my ds keep freezing

Mon, 25 May 2026 17:58:54 -0700

so today i've been trying to play nintendogs: labrador and friends on my black ds, and as seen its just frozen on the voice input bit over and over again. its really annoying cus the one day i want to play my ds it breaks >:(

my copy of nintendogs and my ds are most certainly not fakes because i got them from cex, however they may be damaged as theyre second hand. also i accidentally froze my ds on bootup a little bit ago because i didnt know that taking out cartridges can freeze the bootup and i was switching the cartridge from harry potter and the order of the phoenix to nintendogs

I noticed when I opened my SP I saw that there was soldered something to it. I know that the system is region free so that can't be it unless it could be a overclock mod maybe. Can I remove this?

Nintendo 3DS XL 2015: Recently replaced the circle pad and is now drifting

Fri, 22 May 2026 01:01:22 -0700

Today, I received a replacement circle pad from iFixit and installed it. The installation went fine, and the circle pad is more or less recognized by the console. However, it doesn't register my inputs and pushes to the left as hard as possible. Will I need to find a new one? I spent $21 on this...

Update: I've wiggled the cable around a bit, and now left and right work, but up and down don't register at all.

Nintendo 3DS 2015: My New 3DS turns on and then off with a popping sound.

Fri, 22 May 2026 00:35:47 -0700

After spilling around a third of a cup of dilute orange juice back in 2016, when I turn on my New Nintendo 3DS, the blue light comes on for about three seconds and then the bottom screen flashes for less than a second and instantly turns off which is accompanied with a popping noise. The humidity sticker near the battery is untouched and when I disassembled the New 3DS there were no signs of corrosion or water damage to the motherboard. Any help is appreciated, thank you.

Update 2026: Board pictures. No noticeable corrosion to the board and the water sticker is undamaged. The flap for one of the touch screen ribbon cables is missing, but the issue I'm having was present before breaking that off. Continuity for caps on the board seems to be fine after a quick probe. I should mention that when the console came into contact with orange juice, the top screen failed with bottom screen still working for a bit. Cannot remember if it died or I turned it off and turned it on again.

I have swapped the top screen before in an attempt to fix it with no progress. The bottom screen flashes - I've read online that this indicates its okay and it would be the top screen that is the issue hence why I replaced it - and the power board has its LEDS working. Not sure where to go from here.

Here are pictures of the speaker ribbon cable assembly.

Nintendo 3DS 2015: 3DS doesn't charge or work unplugged, but sees the battery fine

Thu, 21 May 2026 05:13:04 -0700

[It's USB-C modded, fiy]

Recently, I've decided to pick up my New 3DS to play some Picross, and noticed that it wouldn't power on. I tried charging it over night, but it still wouldn't work, I assume it never charged despite turning on the charge light.

I checked with a multimeter and the battery only showed 1.2v, so I'll assume it's dead dead.

As I've been waiting for a new battery to arrive, I've been playing it with a power bank attached.

Today, it arrived, and the 3DS doesn't turn on with it. It sees the battery, it shows it's fully charged, but when I unplug the power bank, it immediately shuts off.

I don't want to assume I have a new dead battery just yet, but I haven't opened it just yet.

Pertaining to the USB-C mod, it's only become an issue now, despite around a year of using it, it charged the battery just fine.

Edit: Here is a picture of my board and mod. It's not the best, but I'll get a better one when I can

Edit 2: I think I have found the issue... Those cables aren't meant to be crimped, are they?...

Edit 3: I have tested what I presume to be both F1 and F2 fuses (it's the ones surrounded) and they appear, at first glance, to be nominal. There's a slight voltage drop in the F2 fuse (from 4.3 to 3.7 volts), but not being sure about nominal voltages, I'm assuming they're fine.

Nintendo 3DS: How can I reattach a ZIF connector latch if it broke off?

Mon, 18 May 2026 08:15:53 -0700

So, I broke 3 of the clasps off. Joycon, two of the bottom screen ones. How can I reattach them? I’ve looked at tutorials but the thing about 3DS ZIF connectors is that THEY ARE NOT BUILT THE SAME (see image)

How do I reattach a ZIF latch with this odd port? Do I have to take the ports off and solder new ones on? I want to get my 3DS up and running again.

Here’s the images of the ‘damage’

Also, here’s how the latch should normally look while it’s on.

Nintendo 3DS XL: Nintendo 3DS XL, won't start.

Fri, 15 May 2026 00:50:57 -0700

Hi guys, I'm having a problem with my Nintendo 3DS XL.

The Nintendo was shipped to me completely disassembled, so I reassembled it and replaced the top display (the flat panel was visibly damaged).

I charged the Nintendo and the charging LED lights up correctly, but after charging it for over an hour, the Nintendo won't turn on for any reason.

When connected to the power supply, pressing the power button turns the charging LED off and back on within a second; no flashing displays, no sound, nothing.

However, when running on battery power only, no LED lights up, not even for a moment.

I think I can rule out damage to one of the displays, since from what I know, if one of the two displays is damaged, a white flash should be visible on one of the displays.

I checked fuses F1 and F2, and they're OK.

I've unplugged and replugged all the flat cables and the wireless card, but the problem still persists.

The only oddity is the battery voltage. Specifically, when I insert the battery into the contacts, it reads 4.1V correctly. When I press the power button, the voltage drops to 0.85V and stays there until I remove and reinsert the battery, returning it to 4.1V.

I removed the SD card, and there's no play in the card slot.

I should point out that there's not the classic blue LED and black screen problem; no LEDs light up, except the charging LED.

Can anyone tell me what the problem might be? I've been stuck in this situation for days now, and there doesn't seem to be a way out.

Thank you all for your time.
