Exclamation-triangle-fill.svgReplacing capacitors is an involved process that requires basic soldering skills and supplies. Some consoles in the GameBoy family use SMD capacitors which are smaller and require special techniques to replace. Improper technique can result in irreversible damage to critical components or the PCB itself.


Exclamation-triangle-fill.svgAlways replace capacitors with equal capacitance value and equal or greater voltage capacitors.
Higher temperature ratings (105°C instead of 80°C, etc.) are preferable and will extend the life of the capacitors.
