Hi guys,
hope this is the right forum; couldn't find an answer to my question yet, but don't hesitate to tell me if this has already been answered.
I bought a faulty european new 3ds. The previous owner says it fell and hasn't worked since.
It does turn on, the LED is blue but there is no video (black screen).
Opening it up showed that the touchscreen cable (I think that's what it is) was disconnected and that the connector had been tampered with. It's one of those that you shouldn't pry open but instead just slide the cables in and out of.
It's the one right above to the connector for the circle pad, below the wide clamp flex cable connector.
My question is: can I replace this new connector type with the P6 connector from the O3DS / DSi / etc.?
Or if not, can anyone point me into the right direction where I can buy a new one of these no-pry-connectors?
Also, is it possible that the N3DS just won't turn on because the touchscreen cable is disconnected? I read somewhere that the O3DS wouldn't turn on (black screen) if the wireless card was not connected for example. What else could be causing the black screen?
Thanks guys!
