After years of the cable being pushed in, pulled out and yanked sideways, the jack loosens on the board and the console only charges when you hold the plug just right, then stops charging at all. This is a direct replacement charging port for the Nintendo DS Lite. Solder it in and the console charges normally again.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat this fixes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrange charge light only comes on when the cable is wiggled or held in place\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo charge at all with a known-good charger\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLoose, rattling or wobbly port\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBent or pushed-in port from a drop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat you get\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSold as a \u003cstrong\u003esingle port\u003c\/strong\u003e.
