Original 3DS - Bottom screen black, digitizer not working either

[AlchemicJay]

Hey everyone,

I haven’t seen anything for this specific problem except for 1 reddit post 2 years ago with no responses, but oddly only one person with the same problem.

I have a japan region original 3DS where the bottom screen and touch screen don’t work. I thought it would be an easy swap, but I put in a known working one and it didn’t work. The backlight lights up, but no video and the touch screen doesn’t work. The motherboard doesn’t look bad at all, no liquid damage, no corrosion. Is there a common component for these two devices? Anything I should be looking for?

Thanks for reading!

I also have this problem. The bottom screen doesn’t light up. Even after replacing it with a new one, it still doesn’t light up. Can you tell me which fuse it is?
