My DS fell and now it wont turn on - Nintendo DS Lite Console

Contact Nintendo repair 1-800-255-3700 for them to check/replace any broken parts.

It is probably because something hard hit your ds, or it fell on the floor This causes the game generator to get jammed. It will turn on, but nothing will hapen. Get it repaired or get a new one. P.S.- For future reference, put a hard ds cover on your ds so this wont happen again. But something called the Ds Y is coming out soon, so you can wait until that comes out. It is even newer than the ds or the dsi.

your DS is burned, this can happen if it gets damaged, like the way you dropped it.

DO NOT try to turn it back on or charge it. Instead do the following:

- Shake out as much water as you can and dry it off as best you can.

- Get a tupperware or other sealing container at least three times the size of your DS and fill it about half-full with rice.

- Put the DS in the rice. Might be an idea to wrap it loosely in paper towel to avoid getting rice dust in it.

- Leave it for a few days to dry out. Every 12hr or so, remove the DS and shake the rice around a bit.

Works for cell phones and other gear too.

no there isnt a reset routine. have you tried the fuses.

do any of the screens flash when the green light flashes.

put it on the charger or bring it 2 the place you got it and see if they can figure it out and fix it.

your ds probably frose up this happened to me once when i fell asleep and left it on just turn it off and  turn it back on

the poweer switches are very fragile on these if you bump them just right they break. I have a new power switch and will solder it on for $24. please e-mail me. [email protected]

try calling nintendo they might fix it but i do not know what they charge

It sounds like it got dropped in water but if you didn't; You should try to take out the battery (unplug the DS first) usually I would suggest just waiting a few seconds and replacing the battery. However due to how the battery comes out, and depending on the height the battery fell from, you should make sure none of the brass pinns that contact the battery got smushed.

If the pins are smushed (if one or two of the pins don't protrude as far as the other) take a safety pin or a needle and try to gently bend them back out to a distance they will definatly make contact with the brass strips on the battery.
