Chosen Solution
I would like to repair my old DS Lite that felt on the ground many years ago. It still works but now it has a hole which reveals its hinge. The problem is that when I open the DS Lite to play its top case won’t stay in position, infact I can’t hear any “crack” that usually it does when the top part locks to stay in that specific position. Which parts have I to buy to fix it? Here are some images:
Hi @dadeaka , It looks like the upper case will have to be replaced. Here is a link to the ifixit Nintendo DS Lite Upper Case Replacement guide, which should be of some help. Here is a link to a supplier of parts for the device. (scroll to the bottom to find upper case parts). It is not a recommendation to use them. It is shown to give an idea of the cost of the part.
Nintendo will fix it for free. The thread is a bit old, but you should call Nintendo support and ask. https://www.engadget.com/2006/07/21/nint…
