Hardware Dead board?

[rhoelsch05]

O3DS, try to boot with charged battery, nothing happens. When I insert ac power, the blue light (and orange light) stay on when trying to boot, nothing else happens, won't turn off until I pull the battery... fuses on button side of board check out fine, battery powers my 2ds fine. No cfw.

Thanks for bothering.

Does anything different happen if you remove the SD card?

No difference.

Can you boot into Safe Mode by holding A+R+L+Up ?

I'd have to reassemble it, but I can certainly try when I have time. I used to get a top backlight and speaker pop with a 5 second blue led, with just battery, but now nothing, unless ac is also attached, as described above.

You didn't mention the speaker pop before. That's definitely a hardware problem.
