Unscrew the Phillips screw securing the battery cover to the lower case.
-
Pry the battery cover upward with a spudger or fingernail, and lift out of the lower case.

Remove the following screws securing the lower case to the body of the DS Lite:
-
Two 4.3 mm gold Phillips screws
-
One 3.9 mm black Tri-point screw
-
One 3.3 mm silver Phillips screw
-
Three 5.5 mm silver Tri-point screws
I cannot remove the tri-wing screws.
Same to me. I tried opening the case by force. Broke several parts of the motherboard…

I can't remove the final tri wing screw in the battery section and it looks like I grinded the screw out too much for any screwdriver to work.Is there anything I can do?
From what I know, the only solution is to drill the screw out with a very small-headed drill :/

Insert the edge of a spudger in between the lower and upper case near the top right corner of the DS Lite.
-
Carefully run the spudger along the right edge of the DS Lite, creating an opening in the process.
-
Continue running the spudger along the backside of the DS Lite until the majority of the lower case has been separated from the upper case.
Don’t forget to remove the GBA cartridge placeholder before removing the backside
You forgot to mention to remove the battery compartment Phillips screw.

Lift the lower case away from the rest of the DS Lite.
When you reassemble, make sure that you have the volume and power buttons in place, and make sure they are in the right position to line up with the switches on the motherboard. If they are not aligned, you risk snapping off the tiny switches on the motherboard (in which case, you are in for some soldering work).
I should have read the comments first - broke off the power switch because I didn't know about aligning it. No way I can do soldering, guess it's for the dustbin :-(

Whoops, remembered the power button but forgot the volume slider.
I'll do it later.
There is no way that the fact you have to line up the volume and power switch toggles upon reassembly is not in this guide. I just carefully followed this guide to replace the shoulder buttons but ruined my DS lite because I didn’t read these (practically hidden comments due to the design of the website) comments and broke the power switch. Thankfully there are 150 million DS I can buy second hand but “repeat the steps backwards” wasn’t sufficient in this repair. And that’s what this website is for.
Watch out with the shoulder buttons. The spring jumped out and I have to clear my entire room to find it ;_;

Lift both trigger buttons out of the DS Lite.
Anything after step 7 is unnecessary if having to replace the left or right trigger button(s).

Thank you this helped a lot I can finnaly play Zelda and Mario Cart now
Hi! I am attempting a trigger repair, but it seems the console was opened and worked on before I got my hands on it, and the switch for the trigger snapped off the board. I taped it to the board to test, and it still works. Is my best bet soldering the switch back to the motherboard? Or could I get away with superglue? (I've never soldered before, and this looks delicate)
I would definitely solder it, usually, these triggers are the ones that get the most stress and dirt around them so superglue might not last that much. If you have a problem with the trigger still. You might want to check the video I uploaded, it is in Spanish, though. https://youtu.be/7GRzZh9ZdNM
I dont get how removing them is supposed to fix it. it says you need no parts. someone explain
This gives you access to them and now you can clean them. There's some YouTube videos showing how, maybe some cleaning alcohol on a q-tip does the trick, or you have to take apart the buttons front and clean the contacts.
its assuming you have a replacement trigger/ replacement parts, and that you put them in when reassembling instead of the origional (broken) parts
A Phillips #000 (PH000) seems to give a more secure fit (no slipping) than the stated Phillips #00.

I'm having a problem getting the screw to unscrew. I have the right Phillips ( it was included with all the stuff I got this) Any tips. it doesn't look like the screw is spinning but i haven't played my Nintendo DS Lite for 3 years.

Soit un changement de batterie, soit la carte-mère a peut-être un court-circuit :/
