Introduzione

After removing the circuit board, the bottom LCD screen can easily be removed from the Nintendo DS.

Strumenti

Passo 1

Remove the cartridge from the console.
Use a Phillips #00 Screwdriver to remove the screw securing the battery door to the rear case.
Remove the battery door.
In the images, it shows that the fixer is using a flathead screwdriver. This flathead screwdriver will work just like the Phillips #00 Screwdriver.

Passo 2

Use a plastic opening tool or spudger to pry out the battery from the bottom. If a plastic opening tool or spudger isn't available, your fingernails may work.

Passo 3

Remove the battery from the Nintendo DS.

Passo 4

Remove the seven 6.4mm Y00 screws located on the back.
If your DS has a lanyard attached to it, you can remove it to make the process of opening the top-left screw easier.

Passo 5

With your hands, pry the back panel off the main case.
Separate the back from the front, and set it aside.

If some of your screws spin free but can’t be removed, it maybe that the screw posts have separated from the shell.

This makes separating the back panel more difficult, but it will still work.

The plastic used for the original silver nds may be the most prone to the UV damage that causes the plastic to become brittle.

Passo 6

Using a Phillips #00 screwdriver, remove the four screws on the circuit board.
Be careful NOT to slip with the screwdriver, you can damage the circuit board!

Passo 7

Unlock the two large ribbon cables by moving the black clip up.
Carefully pull the ribbon cables down and out with your fingers.
Do not use pliers to pull the cables, as they can be damaged easily.

Benutze für die nächsten Schritte besser einen Spudger und keine Pinzette,

sonst läufst du Gefahr eines der Kabel oder die Platine selbst zu beschädigen.

Better use a Spudger, not a Tweezer for the next Steps.

That minimize the risk to demolish one of the wires or the mainboard himself.

Passo 8

Locate the two small ribbon cables, beneath the rightmost large ribbon cable.
Slide the locks for the small ribbon cables down to the side, and remove the cables.
It may be useful to use tweezers to remove the small ribbon cables.
Be careful not to damage the delicate ribbon cables.

Does anyone know where I can get a new connector for the P6 connector? I can only find them for the ds lite

"Slide the locks for the small ribbon cables down to the side, and remove the cables." Could mention that you are pushing them from the right to the left/towards where the cables are coming from. To the side sounds like towards the right edge

Passo 9

Locate the Wifi antenna pigtail connector.
Remove the antenna by grasping it at the head with tweezers. Using a slight rocking motion, pull up to dislodge the connector.
