Hacking a few probs with my ds...

[abridgedravemast]

first of all my L button doesnt work, nay one know how to fix that?
seccond every now and then the top screen goes blank but i dont mind as it goes away if i move the screen about a bit
and last of all my A button feels loose, does anyone know how to fix these, the main prob is the L Trigger as i need that alot.

did you swap cases by chance?

the top display going out sounds like an issue that I had with an older system where the flexible ribbon cable was getting pinched when the ds lite was opened to the point past that initial click from: _ / to _ _

as far as your L trigger button not working, that could be one of two things. either the switch on the pc board is going bad (or has already gone bad), or the alignment of the L trigger is off and the post for the trigger button isn't making contact with the switch on the pc board.

Blow into your L button, it worked with my R button, but after some time (2 or 3 days) you have to blow in it again, and it will work again

Cheap, but soldering skills are required.

I should buy a new one if I were you, or look if you can still repair it.
