⚙️ Product Details

Up for sale is a genuine Nintendo GameCube disc lid sensor switch assembly removed from an original Nintendo GameCube console.

This OEM assembly includes the sensor switch board, original wiring lead, 2-pin connector and mounting screw, making it an ideal replacement for consoles suffering from disc read issues caused by a faulty lid detection switch.

The lid sensor tells the console when the disc lid is closed. A faulty sensor can cause the console to behave as though the lid is permanently open, preventing games from loading or discs from spinning correctly.

Unlike aftermarket replacements, this is a genuine Nintendo OEM component.

  • Detect lid opening and closing correctly
  • Trigger disc spin-up immediately
  • Stop disc rotation when the lid is opened
  • Operate without intermittent faults
  • Function exactly as intended

This is a fully working OEM assembly, not an untested donor part.
