Hi,

Start by replacing the battery and check if that resolves the problem. Even rechargeable batteries have a lifespan.

Here’s a link to the ifixit Replacing Nintendo DS Battery guide that should help with this.

Replacement batteries are available online. Just search for Nintendo DS battery to get results for suppliers.

If it’s not a battery problem, it could be a blown fuse. If you have a multimeter, you can check the F1 and F2 fuses on the motherboard for continuity. Here’s a guide for this on YT: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=48cFZiSy...
