Hacking DS not charging!!

game16 · Jan 7, 2007

damn, just when i got the original Phoenix Wright ( no JFA for me )my DS doesn't charge, i bought another charger but it didn't seem to work :\

i searched around and on the maxconsole forums this guy ultrablade said

QUOTE said:
Internal Fuse 1 blew. You can easily fix it by bridging the fuse with solder. Just remove the old one and shorten it, or just solder over it. Or replace the fuse period. (Best option)

So yeah, two of my DS's blew, before I could solder (I can do it quite professionally now! )

But yeah, its easy. Anymore problems, just tell me.

Nintendo will repair it for free if under warranty.

uB

however i'm not under warrenty and i have no idea what that means, i opened 'er up and i'm pretty confident i can solder things right just i don't know what contacts to what

on the other hand it could be an excuse to get a lite ( although i have no money for anything :\)

help with a pic please?

link to pic

sorry best pic i could get, ever since the lik-sang site went kabloowey couldn't find a decent pic

Does the DS still work when you have the adapter plugged in? With what you posted it just sounds like your battery isn't recharging. If the DS comes on with the adapter plugged in it might be the battery.

nope, besides the cord isn't a AC adaptor AFAIK for the DS it just charges the battery

but the battery aren't dead yet, just red

you can take the battery out and run in off of the cord, i've done it, make sures its not your battery

game16 · Jan 7, 2007

it didn't work, tried both chargers, it needs the battery

fischju_original · Jan 7, 2007

the light doesnt come on at all?

You can't have just the AC charger plugged in with no battery, it won't work.

game16 · Jan 7, 2007

no light comes on, not green not oj not red, but i've tried before to run my DS without the battery, only charger and it didn't work

then what did fischju mean by

"you can take the battery out and run in off of the cord, i've done it, make sures its not your battery"

fischju_original · Jan 7, 2007

i've plugged in my ds and took the battery out and it continued to remain on (grammer!)

DS works with charger plugged in and battery out.
DSL does not work with charger plugged in and battery out.

okai, can anyone tell me which fuse is internal fuse 1? include a picture please?

much appreciated

It should be marked on the board as F1. I remember doing this for my GBA. Damn cheap ass battery packs...

Have a look

EDIT: http://www.edn.com/contents/images/20050609pe_2_l.jpg

F2 is near the power connector, test across it to see if its alive. If not, solder there, otherwise find F1.

thanks man, hey what value is that fuse anyway? i'd much rather just replace the fuse rather then doing this and running the risk of frying my DS

rezen · Jan 8, 2007

Not sure. I never measured it - it was too much hassle to find a replacement. Soldering over it works fine. Sorry.
