I have officially given up

I bought my first DS Lite a month ago. Everything’s perfectly fine. Then I decided to reshell. Bought in Extreme Shell and was so excited to see the new look on my DS. Lo and behold, the top screen ribbon cable got ripped.

Looked for another DS Lite in FB Marketplace to continue my reshell journey. This time, ribbon cable did not get damaged.

However, when i tried to open the console, the light blinks for 2 seconds only then shuts off.

I really feel so bad right now breaking two good devices and wasted money. Right now I’m thinking of looking for a retro repair shop to have it fixed but cant find one in my area that are reputable.

I have modded my GBA before and it was fairly easy but the DSL is certainly not one to understimate.

If I cant have it fixed, maybe I’ll just look for another DSLite and just keep the way it is and give up on reshelling.
