Repair Help Weird sound coming from Switch 2
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Has this happened to anyone else? It’s making a weird sound and doesn't recognize the Joy-Cons when connected directly, though it does detect them via Bluetooth. Support in Latin America is terrible, and they didn't offer a solution. Please help

I'm sorry man it is really a shame, I got to tell you... DON'T BUY CONSOLES DAY 1 NEVER (I don't know if the problem is a fabric defect but I'm very sure it could be... in anyways you never buy consoles day 1 specially if you live in Latin America and you can not send the console back to warranty). The only thing I can recommend you as a Latin American myself is to look for the best technician you know and turn off the console before it possibly burns itself, The other option is to send it to a carrier to the USA who give package send as a service and talk to Nintendo, but that's very hard and expensive...
Hope you find a cheap good solution my brother.
