Either the charging port, charger, or battery is damaged/dead. Try another charger if you have one. Also try using the charging dock if you have it

i replaced my original battery to another battery from the NSPC and put on the old 3ds battery

i tried different chargers

and i dont get the results

You used a battery from another 3ds?

[cobalt sundial]

nintendo uses the same battery from the 3ds to the Wii U Pro Controller and the Nintendo Switch Controller Pro

the CTR-003

Oh okay

And the battery works in the controllers?

[cobalt sundial]

yes

and the 3ds too with new battery

but the charger doesnt show the orange led

And it doesn't charge?

[cobalt sundial]

nop

It's probably the charging port, you'll need to replace it

[cobalt sundial]

how?

[wet yacht]

Send it to a repair shop or open it up and do it yourself, but you'll need to solder it

Alternatively, buy a charging dock

The charging dock works by using the gold contacts next to the charging port rather than the actual port
