    Mine had two yellow wires from above the port in a crooked fashion, apparently they both snapped and there's only one behind and in my case, the orange light never turns on nor does the system (I've had it since 2010 if I recall right)

      Sadly, the problem is still not solved completely. Sometimes it still won't charge. I definitely have to revisit that one and dig a little deeper.

    update, i tested the fuse and it does not seem to work (no continuity), i bought my dsi xl from ebay and it seems they have soldered two wires from the charging port to the black cube thing to the left from the charging port, it has 4 soldering points and it was soldered to the two rightmost ones. btw, sorry i have no experience with electronics, so seemingly obvious things may not be so obvious to me.

      @@TheKonsolist It had a bent pin, Decided to just bend it back, not needed a port changed. It looks good now. I also flowed the 2 pin that connects to the port. Checked and it’s continuous, also checked the voltage and it going in like 5.2v constantly. It’s strange cuz it worked good, now only an orange light that starts flickering (not pulsing like battery issues) and goes off. On the DSi menu it shows the battery icon charing for a second. I have also a spare motherboard for parts. I’m trying my best because it’s my childhood DSi, otherwise I would just buy a new motherboard on Aliexpress. Hope you can help me. Thanks 🙏🏻❤️

      Maybe the connections to the board are ripped off. Then just solder them back on. In my case the port was OK, although I changed it. On my DSi there was a break somewhere on the board so I had to add an additional ground wire.

      @@thepug1936 That's a new one for me. On the top of my head I can only think of two things: 1. Both screens are beginning to fade, because of age. The only thing that bothers me with that is, that both screens started to fail at the same time. And 2. Something on the motherboard started to fail (maybe the graphics chip?). That would explain, why both screens failed at the same time. At the moment I have no solution for your problem, but I'm going to look into it, because I think this is a fascinating problem you got there. Maybe I find something.

    Einen schönen guten Abend ,
    Ich habe gerade einen defekten DSi von einem Freund auf dem Tisch.
    Wenn ich das Stromkabel anschließe leuchtet die Orange LED einmal auf und geht dann wieder aus. Spannungen gehen ins Board und die Fuses hab ich auch kontrolliert (haben beide Durchgang).
    Ich finde online nur Lösungen für den blinkenden Fehler. Hab auch eine gute Testbatterie ausprobiert gibt trotzdem kein Lebenszeichen von sich, nur mit Kabel das einmalige blinken. Bin gerade etwas ratlos. Auf Shorts hab ich grob auch getestet und nichts gefunden!
