This Nintendo DS Lite was released in 2006 as the successor to the Nintendo DS. Getting inside this device is simple, making for easy fixes.

Screen doesn't turn on but power light is lit

The screen doesn't light up when I turn the ds on. On the rare occasion it does, I can play games for a long time. Recently it hasn't been turning on at all since I inserted a GBA cartridge.

Is there anything I can do to fix it myself?

I have been fixing ds lites recently, and one of the ds systems i got had a similar problem. Sometimes the screens lit up, sometimes they did not. When i swapped out the main board, the same thing happened. My guess is that fixing the top screen may solve your problem, but i cant be 100% sure. But I dont think the mainboard is the issue. Sorry if i wasnt much of a help, i just figured id try.
