Nintendo Game Boy Advance SP Buttons Replacement

소개

Follow this guide to replace, upgrade, or customize the buttons in your Nintendo Game Boy Advance SP.

This guide covers how to replace the action (A + B), shoulder (L + R), D‑pad, brightness, and Start/Select buttons, plus the ON/OFF power switch cover.

If you're completely re‑shelling your Game Boy, follow this guide.

The Game Boy Advance SP uses JIS screws. If you use a non-iFixit Phillips driver in JIS screws, you'll risk stripping them. iFixit's Phillips bits are designed to be compatible with JIS screws.

Hi,

How do I fix my SP Brighter when A and B buttons are simultaneously pressed, the system turns off? Please Help! Thank you in advance!

Jikan - 답글

there is most likely a crack in the mother board or the battery has too much pressure placed onto it

you can fix this by changing the position of the battery and putting something to stop it from moving around so it fits tightly

HI there! My problem is that I have to press the button A harder for the action to be registered, how can I fix that?

アラン - 답글

The L and R buttons done work, they go in perfectly fine but would it be the 2 buttons under them that aren't working? If so then how would I remove and replace them safely

Topi2756 - 답글

The buttons L and R don't work, they go in fine so I'm thinking that it's the buttons on the inside that are damaged. If that is the case then how would I remove and replace them safely?
