Hi @michaeld2 ,

You didn’t say which screen was faulty but here’s a link to the ifixit Nintendo 3DS guides.

They show to to replace both of the LCD screens, lower and upper.

Unfortunately ifixit only has the lower LCD unit in stock and is out of stock if you require the upper LCD unit.

Unfortunately, the upper screen is coated in black screen fluid. The 3DS will also not turn on for more than three to four seconds. When I activate a calibration shortcut, the wireless LED comes on for about a half-second before it powers off again.
