Thank you really helped, although I'm a bit concerned the vinegar might make it rust in the future, I have rinsed the pieces with water and dried them well, I even put them in Bicarbonate for a bit to neutralise the vinegar but it still smells a bit like vinegar.
Late arrival, but love the video and your humor. Super helpful and relatively easy to follow video! Thank you. I am hoping to repair my GameBoy SP and if all goes well I might work on/clean some of my bf's other consoles. Seeing people do these cleaning/repairs with confidence makes me feel like I can do it! Also, the acetic acid in white vinegar neutralizes the potassium hydroxide in battery corrosion leaks.

So that’s the science behind it. Cool! Always happy to learn why things happen.
Thank you for the kind words. Glad I was able to help!
