I didn't see a repair general, so I'll just make a thread for this.

I replaced the battery in my Pokemon Blue, but it didn't save. After opening it up I noticed the tab isn't stuck onto the battery. How can I fix this? Pic related isn't mine.

Pokemon Blue? But the cart is red.

Probably just need to resolder the loose tab

I mean the part that actually touches the battery, not the tab you solder down.
>>
>>3824920
Couldn't you just glue it? That's how they come from the factor IIRC. Mind you, it'll have to be glued so that some of the tab is making metal-to-metal contact with the battery. A small dab near the outher part of the battery should work. Bend it, if necessary.

Tape

DO NOT RESOLDER IT
if you do you risk blowing the battery up and ruining your cart. I would recommend taping the battery back in its spot.
>>
>>3824920
Just bend the tab for a tighter contact and tape it for some extra security.

Electrical tape.

Do note that opening the cartridge afterwards can possibly remove enough pressure from the tape + battery that it'll lose connection and delete the save. So don't do that.
>>
>>3824920

My bad dude, misunderstood.

Just tape should fix that then
>>
>>3824920
tape it, I changed my crystal battery 9 years ago and it still works with the tape
>>
just use the larger batteries and when you shut the cart up it'll be wedged in there and wont move
>>
tape is a bad idea, my Pokemon Gold cart lost its save again because the tape came off
even if you use a fair bit of good, strong, sticky tape

ideally, you'd install a battery holder and stick the battery in that (which would make the replacement process ten years down the line really fucking easy), but I dunno if there's enough space
alternatively, it would be nice if there was a conductive glue that didn't suck ass

Yeah, best to just get a new battery. Soldering the tab back on will kill the battery.
>>
>>3824895
drakon it on like a baus.

There are battery holders that fit, though I couldn't tell you which ones
