Einleitung
Diese Anleitung zeigt, wie das obere Display eines original Nintendo 3DS XL ausgetauscht werden kann.
Was du brauchst
-
-
Lege den 3DS mit dem Boden nach oben. Entferne Game Card, Ohrhörer, Ladekabel, Stylus und was auch sonst noch verbunden ist.
-
-
-
Drehe die beiden schwarzen JIS #0 Schrauben auf der Rückseite heraus.
My experience indicates that a JIS #1 is more appropriate here.
Same here, much more appropriate.
-
-
-
Der Akku befindet sich links. In der Mitte oben ist eine kleine Lücke, hier kannst du mit einem geeigneten Werkzeug (nicht aus Metall!) hebeln.
Also you should remove any SD card at this point
Does this battery work on a NEW 3DS XL model?
This guide is for the New 3DS XL, which is called the 2015 3DS XL here on iFixit. If you're asking about the 3DS replacement battery advertised in the iFixit store, I believe it works for both new and old models.

-
-
Entferne die sechs JIS #000 Schrauben entlang des Rands der inneren Abdeckung.
I used a #00 instead it works better for a model form 2016
remove the micro Sd card or the shell wont come off and damage the Sd card reader and the connecter
-
-
-
An der Oberkante befinden sich zwei Gummiabdeckungen. Ziehe sie vorsichtig mit einer Pinzette heraus. Darunter befinden sich zwei JIS #000 Schrauben die du ebenfalls herausdrehen musst.
Can the rubber bumpers be replaced once you reassemble the 3DS? I'd really hate to have to take them out and never be able to put them back in, if I'm honest...
Yep, we were able to put them back in quite easily after repeated teardowns! If they ever refused to stay in for some reason, you could always put a little bit of something sticky on them. (I use scrapbooking tape on my laptop's bumpers.)
What happens if I strip one of these screws? How hard would into be to remove them?
very hard. i stripped 4 screws on my new 3ds xl and i haven’t been able to get them out. i even bought the precision screw extrator set and nothing the set sucked.

Um die Abdeckung abzunehmen musst du sie vorsichtig hoch und weg vom Gelenk heben ( damit die Ohrhörerbuchse frei wird). Schwenke sie dann in Richtung des Gelenks um an die Platinen zu gelangen.
I accidentally opened it and broke the ribbon cable to the r and zr buttons by accident. How do I fix it?
You have to replace the whole thing.

Die beiden Verbinder zu den Flachbandkabel der L/R/ZL/ZR Tasten können mit einer Pinzette gelöst werden. Dann kannst du die Abdeckung ganz entfernen und zur Seite legen.
I discovered that there is enough clearance to slide the Game Cartridge Slot assembly out without removing the motherboard. Just remove the two connectors going to the Cartridge Slot assembly and take out the 3 screws holding it down. There were two screws that look like they are holding the assembly down, but they are only holes through the assembly and don’t actually hold it down. At least on the Pokemon version, New 3DS XL that I had.
Can confirm, it's leagues easier to do it that way than to go to the trouble of removing the entire motherboard, potentially screwing something up in the process. Thank you so much for sharing this alternative method!
I third this alternative method for D-pad replacement. To add to the previously noted detail, you also need to disconnect a 3rd connector going to the Cartridge Slot assembly, the one going to the D-pad Board itself which is underneath the Cartridge Slot assembly, which is shown at a later step in this guide. Also, I found I needed to loosen the two screws on the motherboard located nearest the Cartridge Slot assembly in order to get enough clearance to slide the assembly out, as there are two plastic guide stands that hold the assembly in place which the motherboard otherwise holds too tightly to pass. Otherwise, incredibly smooth sailing, minimal connectors removed, and my New 3DS LL import model finally has a working left/right again. Thanks everyone!

Klappe den kleinen scharnierartigen Sicherungsbügel am ZIF-Anschluss des Flachbandkabels zum Schiebepad mit einer Pinzette hoch.
-
Schiebe das Flachbandkabel aus dem Anschluss heraus.
Is not the right side, the switch must be pull to the left, otherwise people will brake it.
I suggest removing the joystick first, swing to left side, then lift up on ZIF connector from the right. You’re able to pull ribbon cable out easier from the left at that point w/o breaking it, as I did.
2nd the removing of the joystick first via the two screws and to be careful handling the plastic washer underneath. It’s coated with a Teflon type material to aid in stick movement. also use a finger nail over tweezers any change you get. A nail is less rigid with natural give and less likely to break plastic latches. If it doesn’t open from the end you expect, stop, and try the other side right away. Be gently.

-
Hebe das Gehäuse des Schiebepads nach oben und entferne es. Es klemmt vielleicht ein bisschen, sollte aber nicht zu viel Kraft benötigen.
-
-
-
Finde den goldfarbenen Stecker mit dem roten Kabel oben links auf der Hauptplatine. Ziehe den Stecker vorsichtig mit den Fingern nach oben heraus.
-
Löse den Verbinder des einzelnen Flachbandkabels mit der Pinzette.
MDR j'avais vu cette erreur il y a un petit moment... et vous pouvez ajouter, ne pas casser le connecteur comme sur la photo !
-
-
-
Löse mit der Pinzette vorsichtig die fünf markierten ZIF Verbinder auf der Hauptplatine.
-
Drei Verbinder haben einen Sicherungsbügel. Klappe ihn hoch und löse die Verbindung.
Hi,
Can you pls inform me the purpose of the topmost red marked ZIF transparent flex cable, I wish to repair my N3DS XL but I am missing this flex cable (for which part is this cable relevant).
Thanks
I don't have the model on me for reference, but if I remember correctly, it's for the bottom screen.
I think it should be noted that the upper most ZIF is incorrectly labelled here as one to remove with tweezers and not to try to open the clamp. I did this recently and have now broken my brand new 3ds. This cable is for the digitizer at the front of the bottom screen. So my touch screen no longer works. I now need to carry out a further repair. Just a heads up.
Accurate. I have to purchase a new digitizer because of this. I tore the conductors in the cable removing it from the ZIF connector. And I’m really very angry that no correction has been made in the almost 9 months since you posted.
Sabs Like Labs, can you please share a picture of your connector ? last time I dismounted one I had no problems with this connector but maby there are different versions ?
Zoe, I don’t suppose you would know what part to search for to replace one of these lock-less friction connectors? Before this article posted I partially broke one of mine thinking it had a lock and would like to replace it. The old one still works but I have to fiddle with it to get a good connection now. The one I broke is nearest to the cartridge socket.
&&^& all those tutoriel now is just break my new 3ds &&^& you internet
I broke my connectors the little gray pieces broke not the touch screen and the joy stick are broken.
I can confirm there are two different versions of the clip. One flips up and just pushes in
As others have mentioned, the topmost red connector HAS A CLAMP that you need to flip up. It seems like the creator of this guide has a 3ds with older board revision. With multiple people already having brought up the issue, the creator should absolutely update this guide to note the differences as others have already broken their devices due to this guide.
Can confirm that the top most connector has a clamp on mine as well. tore the ribbon cable taking it out and now my bottom screen touch screen is unresponsive. also if you are on this guide looking to replace the game card reader, i also found out after trying to replace mine … You DO NOT need to remove the motherboard in order to replace it !
Then digitizer absolutely should be updated to note, I also broke the GREY clamp off, when treying to remove, and bought a new one.
I believe this to be the replacement https://www.amazon.com/dp/B078WQY7N9?psc...
I also ruined the digitizer connector thinking it had a lock (yes, I failed to read the guide correctly). I ordered another motherboard that cost me $100 (ifixit had none in stock, only option on ebay) only to find out it still doesn't work (now for some reason no button nor touchscreen work which doesn't even make sense since they all have different connectors). Please update this guide to point people to just remove the card reader without taking the motherboard off. I could have avoided all this by just replacing the card reader directly.
Wow...ifixit is flat out lying about that top connector. There is no such thing as 2 different board revisions. ALL models have the clamp type connector. If you zoom in you can clearly see the creator has broken off the clamp in the pictures and is misrepresenting it as a friction connector. Unbelievable.

Schwenke vorsichtig die Hauptplatine um 90° in Richtung des Gelenks um zwei weitere ZIF Verbinder auf der Unterseite der Hauptplatine freizulegen.
-
Beide haben Sicherungsbügel die hochgeklappt werden müssen. Der längere links ist schwarz, der kürzere rechts weiß. Klappe sie hoch und löse die Verbindung.
9-15 aren't necessary at all. Its a super easy fix step 16 is sufficient.
I think you might be confused; this is a guide for replacing the motherboard, not the entire bottom half of the unit.
The top says this is a guide for the directional pad though

Oh! Apologies; I didn't realize iFixit duplicated comments for duplicate steps. The message alert directed me to the motherboard replacement guide. Whoops.
Anyway, as I recall, the card reader was more safely and easily removed once the motherboard was out of the way. But I agree that it was likely doable without. Thank you for the input!
Getting the ribbons back in can be a challenge but don’t give up. Pull them taught and try to work at an angle that give you the most length.
Do you know the name of the shorter zif connector, or how to order it? I am talking about the one that is on the botton side of the board,that sometime it is hard to connect the ribbon cable. I think it has like 30 pins. Thank you.
What is the name or how to order the small zif connectors that is on the bottom side of the board, I think it has like 30 pins. Thank you
I just want to swap out lcd screens, what steps can I omit? this is the only bottom screen guide online and so many bricks wtf can’t someone make a video like top lcds there are many.
Update about the commentaries above :
If your goal is to replace something in the top part of the console, steps 9-15 are still necessary as all of the components up there travel through the R hinge to connect to the main board.
- Top screen and Audio/3D cable connect to the back of the motherboard shown at step 15 (screen is the left one shown on the illustration).
- Camera bar connects to the front of the motherboard (step 13, shown as the up-and-rightmost orange connector)
- Wifi antenna connects to the antenna connector (step 12), probably the easiest to replace without disconnecting the motherboard since it doesn't involve rolling up and threading a flat cable through the hinge.

Entferne die vier Gummistopfen in der Innenseite des Gehäuses mit einem geeigneten Werkzeug.
-
Unter den Stopfen sind silberne Schrauben.
-
Entferne die vier Kreuzschlitzschrauben #00.
-
-
-
Schiebe den äußeren Teil des oberen Gehäuses vom Scharnier an beginnend weg, bis es sich vom inneren Teil trennt.
-
Das Gehäuse löst sich ab, hebe es dann weg.
In the second picture, you did not list that the removal of two screws were needed, that hold down the boards for the volume/3D controls.
just swype the top case UP side is OK
DO NOT make the same mistake I did. Just slide the top cover forwards, away from the hinge, and it will come off. DO NOT do what this guide says! It will snap the plastic clips that keep the case together and if you don’t want to pay for a full replacement housing it will be impossible to undo!
I will also echo Foam Rais. DO NOT PRY IT! … unless causing unnecessary damage to your stuff is your kink. (I also went in and edited it, but since I has like no rep, I’m assuming it gets reviewed first before going live)

Hebe das Display an den Seitenkanten mit einem Kunststoffwerkzeug hoch und schiebe es um den Rand herum.
-
Wenn alles gelöst ist, hebe das Display vorsichtig hoch.
This step is lacking detail. The camera unit just lifts out of place, the ribbon follows it. There are two speakers to the left and right that have small screws that need to be removed first. Also there’s a pair of ZIF connectors that (appear to) need to be removed in order to properly move the left speaker and cable out of the way of the screen.

Die Kabel zum LCD sind im unteren Bereich der Hauptplatine der 3DS angeschlossen.
I would recommend releasing the hinge in order to greatly increase the chances of a successful repair without damaging the ribbon cables.
The hinge opposite of the ribbons (on the ABXY side) has the street pass light thing that can be easily removed and provides access to a cylinder that can be pressed out via a small hole. I used curved tweezers to slide it out of the way. The cylinder is keyed and fits back only one way so pay attention to the fitment position when re-assembling to save on frustration.

Is it possible we could get a link to a screen replacement?
Almost every guide on the internet skips over getting ribbon-cable through the hinge…
and its the step that gets messed up the most so that may be why since you have to roll up the ribbon to get it through the hinge giving it a good chance of breaking the ribbon. Sucks because the only way to tell is to hook it all back up to see if it worked.

Any trouble shooting after putting it all back together? I got the cables through and everything back together and it powered on for a bit. After a bit of testing trying to get the 3D slider working, it just clicked and powered down. Now power on only results in backlight lighting up and an audible click/pop and immediate power down.
If I recall correctly, this means your speaker cable is not seated properly or the speakers are bad.
Why the !&&* do you have to disassemble the LOWER HALF to fix the UPPER screen?
Because the screen plugs into the motherboard on the bottom half of the device?

this guide skips over alot of important steps, i suggest using this guide from "MilaNavi English" on youtube. its made more recently as of this comment and is alot more in depth. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4v6kBSb9...
