How To Test And Replace Your GameCube Clock Battery | MorganMendIt!

Hello everyone! In today’s episode of MorganMendIt we will be replacing a dead CR2032 clock battery inside of a Nintendo GameCube. Do you find yourself having to reset the date and time each time you play your GameCube? The internal clock is powered by a coin cell battery, and after 20 years, many of these batteries are completely drained. As a result, many GameCubes can no longer accurately keep the date and time. To solve this problem, you must replace the clock battery. In order to achieve this, the old battery must be desoldered and a new one soldered in its place. Stick around, and I will show you exactly how it’s done!
