New 2DS XL shuts off after ~4 seconds every time, need help 😭

Hi everyone!

I just bought a used New 2DS XL and I'm running into a problem I can't diagnose. I'm hoping someone here has run into this before.

The console turns on, runs for about 4 seconds, then shuts off abruptly with a sharp cutoff sound, every single time, like unplugging a device suddenly. At no point does anything show up on the screen. Right before it shuts off, there's a small white flash on the bottom screen.

What I've already tested (same result every time):

\- Replaced the battery (the original one was swollen) with another battery, no change

\- Disconnected the top screen ribbon cable, no change

\- Disconnected the bottom screen ribbon cable, no change

I also tested with a multimeter, but I'm not confident I did it correctly, so I don't really have any useful leads from that.

Thanks in advance for any input!
