Hacking How to replace NDS lite TFT LCD (bottom)

[nottm3]

I'm trying to replace the LCD screen, i managed to remove the old screen and put in the new screen, plug in the all the cables but when i try to turn it on it wouldn't, like there is no power.. any idea? thank

Uhh.. Is there a battery in the DS?

Or maybe one of the wires connected to the power switch.. Snapped or something.

It is very possible you fucked something up

You may have not connected those ribbons correctly - does the physical power switch work (like slides up and down normally)?

Make sure the lcd ribbons are connected securely in place , needle nose plyers are good for this ,fingers arent reccomended

if there is no power at all it sounds like you've blown a fuse when replacing the screen. Did you isolate the back of the new screen ? if not you might have short-circuted the ds logic board and blown a fuse. There are guides to how you can fix this, just google around a bit.
