Found an AGS-101 for a dollar at a tag sale, trying to get it working. Battery was swollen, replaced it, cleaned up the gunky case and buttons. Here’s where I’m at now:
# Battery won’t charge while in the system
# System won’t turn on when power switch is flipped
# When charging cable is inserted with power switch off, charge light illuminates briefly, whether or not battery is present
# When charging cable is inserted while power switch is on, system powers on long enough to display the Nintendo logo on the screen, then powers off, whether or not battery is present.
# When charging cable is inserted, I’m not reading any voltage on the battery pins
# I’m reading continuity across the F1 fuse

I’m not sure how to proceed here, as my board looks a little different from others I’ve seen pictured here. I ''think'' my F2 fuse is blown, but would that cause this behavior? The board is [https://i.imgur.com/MsyN1pt.png|here], with what looks like the F2 fuse outlined. Am I looking in the right place?
