This is a nightmare to work on. Probably one of the most complicated repairs I've seen. Appreciate the help.

@IkanaNot22 9 месяцев назад

I think 3ds is the actual restoration horror😢

@joshcollins1383 4 месяца назад

The way you pulled out the hinge so easily...this is my first DSi repair and it's sort of a nightmare in comparison to the DS lite imo

@TheFixTech 4 месяца назад

The dsi is the hardest console to work on in my experience

@TheFixTech 2 года назад

This is a straight forward repair, let me know if you have any questions regarding this repair.

@RoseBaby 2 года назад

It really is straight forward. I love that! Great quality image too.

@JaysonsVideoGameSecrets Год назад

I love this model. I think it’s the best looking portable Nintendo system.

@yigit035 2 года назад

yeah im thinking same thing , it feels very premium when you hold it and have very own style

@garaget81 Год назад

Thanks. Fixed the DSi following this video

@thefishinggamekeeper5713 Год назад

Thanks a lot. I really needed this. Didn't know how to properly take apart my dsu case the first time and broke the top part. Now I know what to do when I do that again. Thanks

@handheldhavoc6635 2 года назад

Awesome repair!

@awartskibenor 4 месяца назад

I was contemplating doing this myself....i think ill just buy another unit and keep this as a backup! A new appreciation for the engineering and design team though!

@KaJaReviews 2 года назад

This is so nice. I hope you do a housing replacement tutorial for the old regular Nintendo 3DS too. I'm gonna try your recent tutorial for the DS Lite. But I also want to give a fresh look to my 3DS. Hope you keep doing these videos! ☺️

@TheFixTech 2 года назад

Yes, I will be adding that video shortly

Thanks for the video, bro. 🙏

@handheldhavoc6635 2 года назад

I tried fixing my DSi a few years back and broke some of the ribbons trying to put it back together... I've had more experience since then so I am gonna try to now fix my 2ds xl 👍

OMG this made me so mad yesterday that not only I damaged the new screen cable, but also the cameras. Now another 2 weeks for the replacements to arrive and try again. The twisting part is terrible. But thanks for the video, it'll surely come in hand

@absonon Год назад

Noticed the speaker wires are reversed when you soldered to new lcd, see 6:38 vs 7:38. Will the speaker still work?

@sug4rk4ne59 8 месяцев назад

I took mine apart and followed all your steps and I made sure everything is connected right and the power button turns blue for about 3 seconds and then it powers off.

@BigCheeZeMan Год назад

On second thought.... I'm good

@efraincami1609 Год назад

My DSI somehow got some dirt inside de front screen. Do I need to disasemble the lower part too to clean it or simply open the top part?

@paoloh885 4 месяца назад

This is definitely in my top 5 most frustrating things that I've ever done. Holy shit that ribbon cable is a nightmare.

@coffeechimp3816 Год назад

What temperature do you use for the soldering gun?

@mariocruz6599 9 месяцев назад

By any chance do you know if both bottom and top screen should have the same brightness

@alexpiatt1282 Год назад

The casing for the connector at 2:00 came out as well when I removed the connector. Any way to easily reattach that?

@randomotaku5022 Год назад

Would a DSi xl look the same? (When it comes to the inner parts

@RomanianGuyGaming Год назад

Sick! Can you make one on how to fix the mic? Thanks.

@Mat-jv1fx 11 месяцев назад

How do you coil the LCD cable.... ive tore the connector trying to slide it in.....

@krimsin. Месяц назад

is taking apart the bottom required too for this repair?

@fliguy84 2 года назад

I hope you can make a video for DSi XL soon.

@TheFixTech 2 года назад

I will soon.

@davidallancoe01 2 года назад

Remember having one of those as a kid lol,any updates on the Bronco?

@TheFixTech 2 года назад

O yeah, my next video will be about the speedometer (bouncing needle fix) and simultaneously fixing cruise not working. Or a complete distributor tear down and fixing a startup issue.

@TheFixTech 2 года назад

Also for the front brakes I will be doing a video showing the removal of the rotors and converting to Warn manual hubs.

@LoganLayne66 Год назад

I was going to buy one with a broken screen but I wanted to see how easy it is to fix I heard soldering and I just went nope I tried to fix a 1st gen Xbox and I had VERY bad luck to say the least

Hello, is there any way I can send you my dsi xl to repair. The top screen is cracked.

I am not sure.

Hello! I have a Nintendo DSi that charges (orange led) but it doesn't turn on. Do you have any idea where this might come from? I have so many memories in this DSi 😅 Thank you!

@TheFixTech 2 года назад

A no power issue could be simpler a bad battery, or could involve a bad power board. I recommend buying a working dsi for parts

@fredthesmilingpineapple9856 2 года назад

I have the exact same ds but the broken part is on the bottom can that be fixed as well?

@TheFixTech 2 года назад

The lower screen? Yes, that is an easier task

@giuliac4344 7 месяцев назад

i tried to follow it, but my dsi has nothing below those rubber screw covers on the top screen, just smooth metal..

@TheFixTech 7 месяцев назад

Pry up the metal, it is metal covered rubber caps

@fangdelust1675 Год назад

whats the cable in min 2:00? becouse it completely detached(broke?) when I tried to unplug it, now I have to solder it, and its really micro

@fangdelust1675 Год назад

welll I managed to solder it, but, i think between tries i did something wrong, the dsi turned on, but i disconeccted the batery with the battery off, I think a fuse blown out, now it doesn't turn on with battery, but flash the orange light once when connected to power supply. HELP

@mysticmistake8286 Год назад

@@fangdelust1675 I got the exact same issue and I didn't even apply any force trying to unplug it. It just ripped right off immediatly.

@kimwar3992 11 месяцев назад

would the process be the same for dsi xl?

@TheFixTech 11 месяцев назад

The process is similar, yes

@KennethPlaysOfficial День назад

Those rubber caps suck. I tried taking one of them off, and it got ripped in half. I literally cannot open it now.

@eddycolindres3227 11 месяцев назад

Con que habia que hacer eso para conectar y desconectar la pantalla 😅 y yo complicandome poniendole cosas para poder hacer ese movimiento, sin duda que es un proceso demasiado delicado, queria saber del microfono ya que no me funcionaba y parece ser que es el cable rosa, lo que lo hace no tan dificil de reparar la verdad

Just changed the bottom LCD screen of mine, and then assembly everything back again, the nintendo was doing a flickering when powering, re open it again and put back again the LCD screen cable and then now the nintendo wont even turn on and while charging the orange lights blinks

@botchedoperations3485 Месяц назад

I’m going yolo and installing it without speakers then. Got a broken one on purpose as a project…soldering is not a skill set I have. Start with the top and eliminating the broken screen and then work through the bottom. I fix a laptop screen and it wasn’t this difficult. This is ridiculous
