In the teardown video they show how to remove the ribbon cable, but beware! Two of these cable dont have the regular easy fit where you lift the flick to get it open and remove the cable. (Yes, they do this in the video and brake it.) Once they’re open” they wont close again.
The cable right above the cart slot is ond and the closes cabel to the joystick is the other. (The two with the back connectors)
BEWARE!
I have not tested this yet but it seems as it is a tight push fit to these ribbon cables.
If there is so, please let other people know so they dont do the same mistake as i by opening it and cannot close it again.
this comment needs to be pinned. sad thing is, i remember reading your comment but i just took mine apart and forgot that i had read your comment the other day...
yup, i opened 2 of the zif connecters that were supposed to be slid out of. it does not turn back on now. BEWARE of this video. i was usinfg it for parts for my 3ds, but still, i noticed 2 ribbon connectors not clamping down when putting it back together. oh well. still, $@$*!& of you ifixit.
What the !&&* is up with him incorrectly disassembling it? When be begins separating the top half shell he breaks the plastic on all four corners, which caused me to break mine as well… He is missing an entire step. Plus these video tear downs are inferior to photos. What the !&&* ifixit?

Is the wi-fi card soldered into the system or is it removable? i got a 2ds xl that gives error occur, please power down whenever you enable the wifi. This was a common issue on the original 3ds models and reseating/replacing the wifi card resolved it.
I had to try three sets of “Philips #00” screwdrivers and ended up taking every screw out with a 00 standard filed down instead.
Something about these “00” screws or screwdrivers just did not work, couldn’t catch the fins of the screwdriver in the hole or the screwdriver was small enough but had a massive point at the end and the zdepth of the screw heads just meant I couldn’t get purchase into the screw at all
Then once I had everything disassembled for repair / doing the nonsense I wanted to do with the motherboard out, during reassembly
Had the joystick ribbon cable that forcefully makes 2 90 degree bends just break and had to source parts from a second unit
and most of the ribbon cable holders must be rated for 1 to 3 insertions max?
After all that effort i’m left with a unit that is effectively bricked
Unless you’re doing an insane “repair” like I was (Trying to get a JP exclusive plastic shell over a US mobo / chipset / interals ) 100% go with Nintendo service on this

Any idea how I can get my hands on a replacement back frame. I found a crack in the bottom right corner.

Why can’t i find a direct 2ds close upper screen replacement? Is it the same screen as the 3Ds Xl?
John - 回复
It’s not the same, the 2DS screen is in 2D and the 3DS has a 3D screen

Timestamp 1:45 , You just broke four screws that are under an adhesive layer with the black carbon fiber-like plastic sheet… lol

and i say this having done joycon repairs and joycon shell swaps,
the switch generation seems 100% better for ribbon cable part sourcing (acceptors on the board and the cables themselves)
don’t be stupid like i was

can you fix one that is broken in half and tthe wire and ribbon broke
