Replacing a lock tab on the Original DS capture

Post by C.Stimil » Fri Jun 24, 2016 3:31 am

In an attempt to fix some problems unrelated to capture board itself, I ended up shifting the card between various DS systems. Sometime along the way, I broke the lock tab on the part of the card that connects to the top screen.

I can confirm that it was working properly before and, although I don't know if that's still the case, the fact the otherwise untampered with system it's currently in tries to power on the bottom screen and then immediately shuts off suggests that the problem may just be that the cable from the top screen isn't secure.

I have a bunch of DS mainboards laying around that have this tab intact. Is it possible to safely transfer one of these tabs from one of these boards to the card itself without any special tools?
