Nintendo Game Boy Advance SP Motherboard Replacement

简介

Follow this guide to remove or replace the motherboard (aka main board or logic board) in your Nintendo Game Boy Advance SP.

Removing the board will give you access to modify it with kits that add RGB LEDs, convert your front buttons to tactile ones, etc.

Note that most motherboard mods require soldering. If you're new to soldering, check out our guide on soldering and desoldering connections.

The Game Boy Advance SP uses JIS screws. If you use a non-iFixit Phillips driver in JIS screws, you'll risk stripping them. iFixit's Phillips bits are designed to be compatible with JIS screws.

    • Option 1: Open the main body of your Game Boy to a 90‑degree angle and gently lay the motherboard down. Make sure the main body is resting on top of the motherboard to give the cable slack.

    • Option 2: Keep the main body closed and prop it up on the edge of the logic board, using a sturdy object to hold it up.

I just bought one at a garage sale. Everything works fine, but the screen does not display properly. when you turn the unit on, all you get is vertical lines on the screen. They are random each time you turn it on. Is the ribbon ripped? If so, can you get a new one??? If so - where?
