Got a New 2DS here that I bought off of ebay. Not sure of the history of the device but I assume it was a family owned console with no previous repair attempts.
All of the ribbon cables look fine. The battery is charged at 4.16v so a dead battery shouldn’t be the issue.
The only areas that looked troublesome were the:
- charging port with obvious internal damage
- a coil right next to the charging port which wasn’t properly soldered to the pads
- Two of the should buttons that were ripped off the PCB
One thing that could be a lead is the fact that when the console does power on for those few seconds only the bottom screen backlight turns on. Any ideas guys?
