I have about a year old nintendo ds lite and it is my neice's she must have dropped it somewhere along the line of owning it. Before i opened up the ds i noticed when i would shack the ds it would sound like there was something rattling around in there. I opened up the ds and noticed that fuse 2 was indeed missing. And I was just wondering if the motherboard is indeed trash or if i can just replace the fuse and everything is fine and dandy. I just do not want to get the fuses and than find out that i still need to get a motherboard as well. It would be pointless. Please help i am trying to do this before christmas, sorda as a suprise.
looks like the fuses that are soldered to the Motherboard have come off. So you have 2 options. Either 1 somehow get those 2 fuses, open up the DS and solder them on again (though I doubt it will work again) seeing how your niece has dropped it who knows how many times or what else she has done to it. or 2 ring nintendo and tell them about it.... though again I doubt they will fix it under the warantee its still on and they might charge you an arm and a leg for it. third option is just to get a new one. How old is your niece anyways?? seems to me she is like under 5 or so? I don`t think it`s a good idea to give young kids DS`s as things like this will tend to happen and cost alot of moneyz.
