Nintendo DS Fuse Issue?

System: Nintendo DS Lite

This is a really odd problem... never seen this before.
When I power on my system, regardless of remaining battery life, the green light comes on, and after a short pause, the bottom screen flickers on once, then immediately shuts back off, along with the green light.

However, my problem seems unique in the fact that, pushing the screen back farther than its standard 160 degree angle, or so, from the base, pushing it back farther to 180 degrees allows the system to power on normally. If the screen is wiggled, or released from the 180 degree angle, it powers off immediately.

Someone I know proposed that the solution to an identical problem (save for the screen tilting enigma), was to change the fuses... Are there any other suggestions? And if now, how do I go about fixing the fuses, if that is correct?
