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.

Why does my DS not turn on

Plugging in the DS shows a solid charging light but no red or green light and will not turn on. The battery is working.

Hi Ayden!

Most of the time a fuse on the motherboard went down. Please test F1 and F2 on the motherboard with a continuity test. If one of them failed, please replace it. You can also replace the whole motherboard but this would be expensive.

Please let us know how it goes!

I have red light and charging, trying to turn on get nothing no green light, battery checked worked fine in another device, F1,F2 and EM10 getting correct reading, so what else could it be? This classed as motherboard totally failed as don't want to waste my time on it if so?

If you did tried another battery, it's most of the time motherboard related. As you checked the fuses and the EM10, you can replace the motherboard. It's more expensive but will save you some headache and testing!
