My new 3ds XL power button doesn't working anymore

[giovannirizqy]

Its been a year since i touch my new 3ds xl after i bought it. Tbh i played it rarely too because im kinda busy with work related irl.

So my problem is my new 3ds xl suddenly turning On without me pressing the power button, after that i tried too turn it off by pressing the power button but it seems the power button not working at all, so i using the rosalina menu to turn it off, pressing the power off menu in there, after that it turned off but i can't seems to turn it on again, after 2 weeks suddenly my 3ds turning on itself without anyone turning it on, it feels kinda odd to me, does anyone here had any solution?

Did anything bump the power button, even slightly touched it? Maybe it's an issue with the connection to the button.
Also, don't try to open up and fiddle around with your 3DS without knowing what your doing

How is somebody supposed to repair a hardware problem without using hardware methods??

Could be corrosion inside the micro-switch (internal power button). I don't see a way not involving opening. Be careful: On some(!) units the (soft, garbage metal) screws are ridiculously tight. They are easy to strip. Use a fitting (JIS if you can find one) screwdriver and give if a light tap from above to fully insert the tip into the screw head before attempting unscrewing.

Most likely a micro-soldering thing (unless you are going to replace the complete power board.

Be careful to not break anything (3DS are out of production): So many delicate cables inside the DS consoles.

Good luck and have fun!
