F2 fuse?

Need some help from the DS repair people lol. I replaced the bottom screen on a DS Lite. After I put everything back together it actually cut on perfectly one time. Both screens worked and I thought I was in the clear.

Now it won’t show any life at all. No green light, no flash, nothing.

I been reading online and seen people talking about the F2 fuse being blown. Does that sound possible? I’m still learning repairs so any info helps.

Hey everyone,
I’m in the middle of trading for a Nintendo DSi and wanted to get some opinions before it arrives

The current owner says the only issue is that the left and right triggers are iffy and bulged

I don’t have it in hand yet, but my first thought is it could just be a reshell issue—like the buttons not lining up right, springs out of place, or maybe the rubber contacts aren’t seated properly.

For those of you who’ve dealt with this before:

Does this sound like a simple reshell/alignment fix?
Or is it more likely worn-out tact switches that need replacing?

Could it just be dirt/grime inside the triggers?

Any quick tests I should run as soon as I get it?

I’m comfortable opening it up if needed, just trying to figure
out what I might be getting into.

Appreciate any advice 🙏
