[sweany]

Hi

Cheers

1.You do not get genuine shells.
You cyt the touch wire while changing the shell.
Same thing happend to me.

what do you mean about the wire ??

ummm, you cut it? cut through it on accident? It no longer reconises the touch cause there is no longer a connected cable to send the motion. Unless you have some solder, and soldering iron and heat shrink, its unfixible.

Lesson learnt: "Dont change your shell, put up with it, Remember, Pink is the new black"

symptom:
the ds lite powers up, however the touch screen does not appear to work properly.
potential solution:
disassemble the lower shell and check the connection of the small flexible cable. the locking mechanism for this connector is different and works in the opposite direction (as shown below). additionally, check to make sure that no foreign particles have become trapped between the lower display and the frame area of the shell. pressure caused by foreign debris can cause the touch screen to malfunction.

You might want to check out the rest of the guide to see what you could have done wrong.

if ds lite all other functions works, but don't work touchscreen you check if the touchscreen cable is well connected, if broken just buy a touscreen, cost less than 4/5$ usually

you also mentioned that you replaced the border frames.

it's quite possible that you destroyed the touch screen when lifting off the original pink coloured frame from the touch screen (nintendo uses a very strong adhesive that bonds the frame to the top layer of the touch screen. if you accidentally separate the two layers of the touch screen, it will no longer function correctly.
