Dmg-01 Gameboy

Posted on  by

The first step is to remove the back cover of the DMG. There are six screws, and depending on when your Gameboy was made, they are either going to be triwing or phillips. Triwing screws, for those of you unfamiliar, are Nintendo’s favorite way to make opening their products just ever so slightly more irritating. If you don’t want to spend a couple dollars on a triwing driver, you can do what I did and use a small flathead in one of the three slots in the screws. It’s not super difficult, but you definitely want to be careful to avoid stripping the screws. There’s four obvious ones on the back of the Gameboy, and two inside the battery compartment. You’ll need to remove all of these.
Once you take those screws out, don’t pull the Gameboy apart quickly. There’s a fairly short ribbon connector connecting the screen half of the Gameboy to the circuitry half. Carefully hinge unit so the screen half is face down on your desk with the circuitry portion sticking vertically upward. You could disconnect the ribbon cable at this point (it’s a ZIF socket, so the connector just slides out), but I didn’t want to bother having to reconnect it when I was done. You can do this repair quite easily without having to put this connector back in.

Game Boy DMG-01 Capacitor List

Original Gameboy Value

A quick note on replacing capacitors: there are a few caps on the LCD board that require removal of the LCD module to desolder. For those caps, I would not attempt to remove the LCD module, instead I would cut the leads as close to the old capacitor body as possible and solder the replacement parts to the old legs. The LCD modules are known for developing bad connections, so you probably don't want to aggravate the LCD during the capacitor replacement process.
