DS Lite charges, nothing happens when trying to turn on

I found a DS Lite, and it has no problem charging, the orange light comes on and the battery slightly heats up, but absolutely nothing happens when I press the power switch. No sound, no lights, no screen, nothing. What could be wrong with this DS?

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

Hi Ella!

Please check the fuses on the motherboard! It's possible that one of them broke and need to be replaced.

Replacing the motherboard should fix it too, but is more expensive...

Good luck with the repair, and please let us know how it goes!
