Hello, has this happened to someone? I decided to clean my GBA SP completely especially the R button which was working but definitely needed to be cleaned (L button was already fine but i cleaned it too because why not since i clean R button) and also the power switch.

So everything went very well, then i turn on the console and the L/R buttons are COMPLETELY dead lol
I don't have new buttons to solder at my house.. I really wanted to play my GBA SP, that sucks, anyone know the reason? L was working perfectly fine, R had a little bit of trouble but worked too.

Thank you.

ok problem solved lol, it probably still wet for a long period of time inside the button, they are starting to work again over time.
