OP
I am attempting to repair a couple of these old style 3ds xl systems (without cstick option) I bought from Goodwill the other day. I have a good working system That i have as well that I am willing to disassemble to attempt to find out what part has failed, but looking for some answers before attempting. I fix 2ds systems without any issue and can diagnose those, these however have me a little stumbled. They are both having the same issues and troubleshoot the same as follows:
ANY INFORMATION THAT CAN HELP, I AM MORE THAN WILLING TO HEAR!
- When pressing the Power button the blue like powers on for a couple seconds, then immediately shuts off.
- The sound does not "pop" when powering off
- Both Screens do flash on and off during the attempt to power and appear to have no cracks
- 2 fully charged batteries that tested good were used in attempting this
- Battery Contacts were cleaned on the motherboard
- Ribbon cables were all cleaned and reseated to the best of my ability (I redid this multiple times to try and remove human error from equation
- I am unaware of any firmware modifications being done to either sytem or memory cards
- I read a few reddit pages that if a system is bricked from homebrew modifcations, you can test this with using certain files, and all these tests came up to no difference.
- Both systems came with original style 4gb memory cards and neither system held more than one System ID and one of two systems had DCIM memory and photos within, leading me to think this is the original card to the system
- Which Ribbon cables will cause system to fail booting sequence?
- Which items can I ignore that will not cause this issue?
- What is The lettering for the fuse(s) on these systems, generalized location, and/or if generous, a photo?
- Will The sound/3d ribbon cable cause this issue is faulty?
- If not, will this item need to be installed to motherboard during troubleshooting or will that cause boot failure?
- Will the camera ribbon cable cause this issue if faulty?
- If not, will this item need to be installed to motherboard during troubleshooting or will that cause boot failure?
- If the Top LCD Flashes during boot failure, does that mean the LCD is good or is it possible that the TOP LCD could still be a potential for causation?
ANY INFORMATION THAT CAN HELP, I AM MORE THAN WILLING TO HEAR!
