Lets Refurb! Game Boy Color Deep Cleaning

If you're going to modify your Game Boy Color, or just want to get it back to nearly-new condition, this video is for you. We cover opening up the shell, removing the board and display, then thoroughly cleaning all the parts of the board.

A good cleaning can resolve such things as:
- Console won't power on
- Power switch is 'finicky' and easily shuts back off
- Volume low or not working
- Volume scratchy when turning dial
- Headphone jack 'stuck' in headphone mode

Also covered:
- 'Speaker rot' (dark brown coloration inside the speaker) (Thanks to BennVenn for the 'why'!)

Materials used:
- Isopropyl alcohol (99%): https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07NFSFBXQ/
- Pipe cleaners: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07JW72WTL
- Cotton swabs

We love to hear from you - let us know what you'd like to see covered in detail, as we thoroughly enjoy being a retro gaming community resource. Cheers!
