Battery Replacement

Post by BlankMind »

My Dreamcast cannot save time and configurations anymore. It means that battery near control plugs is dead, right? The one who stays near the LED...

How do I replace it? I cannot take it off, seems like it's glued or something. Any tip?

It's soldered on the board and it's a 3,6V rechargeable battery. Ask a technician to do it for you.

You can most likely recharge the battery. Turn your dreamcast on with no disc or anything and let it sit for a few hours (some people say 6-12, just do it over night) and then try it and see how the battery is holding up.
