i have also used the dock to try to charge the 3ds using accessory port but still no light turns on and no light even flickers

the charger works fine on my new 3ds

ok i checked the charging port turns out it was loose form motherboard. i then soldered back the port on the 6 points . i tested it out by inserting cable into port and waiting for the orange indicator that appeared to turn off after 4-5 seconds and it did

now when i am inserting the battery (and the nyko battery as well) the charging light does not turn on (to charge the battery).
the batteries work that is they ON the console and everything but as soon as i insert the charger the indicator does NOT come on.

If i remove the battery and then reinsert the cable it again does the 4-5 second prodecure as menntioned above in this post

What is the problem that is causing the battery to not get charged by the charging port?

(btw i am using both cable and dock separately and getting same result)

check this as well

edit: the orange light 5 second issue happens with and without original battery. but if i insert the nyko power pak then the console turns on and plays but the battery does not charge and the orange light does not turn ON at all.
