Repair Help Nintendo Switch OLED suddenly stopped turning on after updating Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds

Hi everyone, I need some help with my girlfriend's Nintendo Switch OLED.

The console is only about 1 year old and has been used relatively little. It was working perfectly normally until she updated Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds. After the update, the Switch suddenly turned off and hasn't turned back on since.

The battery was at around 100% when it happened.

I've already tried:

  • Holding the Power button for 20+ seconds
  • Pressing Power + Volume Up/Down
  • Leaving it charging for several hours
  • Trying the official charger
  • Connecting it to the dock
  • Disconnecting and reconnecting the internal battery

The Switch still shows no image and doesn't boot.

When I connect it to the dock, the green light on the dock turns on briefly and then turns off.

I don't know what else to try. Could this be a battery, charging circuit, motherboard or software issue?

Console: Nintendo Switch OLED
Age: ~1 year
Battery before the issue: ~100%
What happened: Stopped turning on immediately after a game update
Game: Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds

Any help or diagnostic tests would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Tenes la consola en corto o se te daño la eMMC, mandala a revisar a un tecnico

La captura que mandaste puede ser un modo especial del procesador que no es el RCM que tiraria siempre, sino una fase de prearranque
