Hi, my daughter only had her DS Lite for a month before it stopped working. The red power light comes on for a second when it is on the charger but then goes off again, so there is power there. Nothing else happens however. I have no idea where the receipt is so the warranty is useless unfortunately.
It seems unlikely that the battery is dead after only a month. Has anyone experienced this and what was the solution?
My sons DS recently started doing the same. I tried a different charger and got the same result. I found the only way the ds would charge was to turn the ds on to get the green light and then plug the charger into and turn that on and only then would the charge light would stay on and charge it.
Put it on the charger then leave in for a few hours, then it will be charged and it will work
Really sounds like a dead battery. The DS will not work if the battery is bad even when it's plugged in. You get the quick flash of the power light and that's it.
Hi Atticus,
I have seen this happen when someone plugs the wrong charging cord up to the DS lite, Is there any chance some one did this to your DS lite.It sounds also as if the battery is not making proper connection.
I hope this gets you in business Atticus. Do not Vote until we get it working. Try this and add a comment to this problem posting. I will answer as soon as I possibly can. Thank you very much for the opportunity to solve your porblem with a DS Lite.
