Modded GBA doesn't turn on

Gameboy Advance AGB

Please, help! I've modded my GBA last month with a backlight screen. It worked very well.

Today I'm trying to apply also a new speaker of Retro Modding, but... the GBA is dead! It doesn't turn on! I've tried with the isopropanol alcohol, but nothing!

P.s. Sorry for my english, but I'm desperate! :(

Here the picture of the motherboard

Did you clean the inside of the power switch too?

Yes

Definitely looks like the solder on r12 is shorting out your gameboy, a closer pic of that area would be very helpful

Here R12 (but so it worked for over 1 month)

Here CP4

Any help? :(

You probably blew a fuse. Try testing continuity in fuse F1. It's right by the power switch. If you don't get anything, then you'll have to replace the fuse.
