Iv'e searched the internet and sadly I will have to say that the only answer that I found was to send the console to Nintendo for repairs . Here's a link : http://techforums.nintendo.com/thread/20201

Iv'e also found that blowing into the buttons might work according to this :

I suggest trying the blowing thing first though the problem is mainly the first one because you dropped your 3ds
Hope that helps some bit :3

you should tell nintendo about it

Thank you for this suggestion. I never think blow will work my L button.

By the way, i could register the phone number at Nintendo for another problem.

Now I can play again Mario Kart 7

my old dsi used to do that. I figured out that blowing into the side of the trigger helped for a little while, but the real problem is that the real button that the L trigger pushes, isn't getting pushed right or at all. If you take your system apart and wedge something like a tiny piece of cardboard in between the button and the trigger, it should get pushed and therefore work.

So the Blowing thing DID work ? Well I never knew that would work . Sometimes your 3ds can get a lot of dust and grime inside the L Button or R Button can cause the buttons to not function properly . I never had the problem myself so I couldn't confirm it So the problem is fixed ?

Hi , if have been on your place I surely send my nintendo
To nintendo fix shop and sometimes it also don't work when dirt and dust settled down on buttons and also make sure your Nintendo l button spring is working.

My L and R buttons haven't worked in quite a while because of the dust problem. Blowing into it was a temporary solution but now they don't work at all no matter what I do. Same is happening with my A button but pretty sure that isn't dust just from dropping it *i krai* But it's fine, I'm getting the New 3ds soon *I shall guard it with my life*

You said you A button doesn't work? If you place your thumb on the bottom of the button and push it up (gently) it will probably move up and left a tiny bit. if you can keep that button up and left, then the problem is solved.

And for the triggers, look at my previous post.

You might have to send your 3ds back to Nintendo. NIntendo might send you a new ds or fix your ds. Also try to push the l button up. I try to push the l and r buttons and it usually works.
