Hi all,
I've been trying to repair my DSI XL over the past 3 years on and off after dropping it into a swimming pool 7 years ago. I cleaned off all corrosion on the board in the hopes of removing any shorts that may be happening, and also replace both fuses on the motherboard.
Furthermore...
So it seems I should only replace my top screen and battery, correct? (motherboard is fine?) I am currently using a 3ds battery, so it isn't very convenient to use haha
EDIT:
now all of a sudden the blue light wont come on nor will she charge at all. No signs of life rn, seems to have happened...

Prior to the socket breaking off, I tested a 3DS battery with the powerboard and I got a flashing blue light when I try to turn it on, until it went...

I opened up my DSI and found a bunch of white residue which i thoroughly cleaned off with isopropyl alcohol and the board looks like new. However, the...
About 6 years ago my DSi XL got wet and stopped working ever since. When I try to turn it on the orange light flashes, and that's about it. I opened up the board and I noticed there was a bit of corrosion around quite a few parts. The DSi holds many important and sentiment pictures from my early...
