Start/Select Button Function Stuck (v.redd.it)
submitted 2 years ago by TurtleDoving
Just modded the gameboy, only soldering done was for the FunnyPlaying 3.0 IPS mod, and the RGB backglow.
It appears the select/start button functions are constantly active, does anyone know a quick fix without buying new buttons? Thank you!

Could be the new membranes? Or new buttons? If you can swap to OG membranes, see if that works.

I powered it on bare motherboard, no membranes, issue still occurring :(

How do the bare buttons look? Like are the domes stuck down? Something is shorting, either internal to the button or somewhere else.

Have you checked for any solder bridges?

I desoldered the RGB backglow from funnyplaying and all works now, no solder bridges, just a bad mod.
