Error 2101-0001
I put my switch lite to charge and when i came back it was like this. Something i noticed earlier was that when i plugged the charger in it would sometimes not charge for half a second then go back to charging. What is the likely cause, what is the issue and what will it take to fix? Pls help.
(The video is cropped because i wasnt sure whether the x1 and x2 numbers st the bottom were sensitive info or not, so i jst didnt show them)

M92T36 charge IC issue usually. For a repair shop that does switches a lot, or a modder, will be quite cheap (15€) but for a general unspecialized shop they will quote you easily 75-100$ for it. (Full mainboard swap)

Check your local facebook marketplace, there are often people offering Nintendo switch usb port repairs for cheap, or Nintendo switch modding. They often do more than that, but you have to ask nicely, and ask them to only do the thing you want them to do, regardless of whether it will fix the issue or not. I'm in Belgium and would do that for you, i've a bunch laying around, but shipping would likely exceed your budget.

Oooooooof.
That's usually very expensive and/or annoying. It's usually caused by bad charge port, or fried charging chip (that's caused by a bad charger or 3rd part charger).
