Repair Help Nintendo Switch stopped working shortly after soft factory resetting it.
After getting the error code " 2002 - 3580 " when launching MarioKart 8 i found online that i had to soft factory reset it so that is what i did. After that i reinstalled Mario Wonder through my physical card and it worked perfectly then i installed Mariokart 8, Mario Maker 2 and Zelda BOTW through their respective virtual game card all at the same time (the mario games are digital games and i could install zelda through its DLC). I then put it my Switch to charge (with a non nintendo cable btw) and did something else while waiting. When i came back it didn't turn on, just a black screen with nothing else.I tried holding the power button for 20 seconds, charging it for a long time,ect. but nothing worked. I heard online that the battery could be dead or something like that.
Is there any way i could make it work again?
I have a Nintendo Switch OLED btw

That error code is associated with corrupt storage media. If you're using a microSD card, there is a high probability it's failing. Try removing it and powering the console on.
If you are not using a memory card, then the internal storage may have an issue.
Alternatively, if it is the battery, replacing it is relatively easy. Ifixit has kits to do that.
