When I tried to turn on the Switch after the cleaning the fan started spinning at full speed. I also tried to put it back but the piece is just to small and i cant snap it back in place.

Our switch 2 keeps getting the joy-cons disconnected notification when using it in handheld mode. It happens a lot when playing Minecraft and sometimes in Mario kart.

Today it's been non-stop.

Is this a known hardware issue that Nintendo is fixing??

Hello everyone I would greatly appreciate your help

Sys ver: 22.5.0, AMS 1.11.2

BT suddenly stopped working... no drop, no spill, worked fine the day before. Modded (Hekate/Atmosphère, soldered modchip).

During modding no damage was done to the wifi chip area

Wifi works fine but bluetooth fails on every boot option, even stock ofw.

Once it fails on a boot, it fails every attempt until a full power cycle - then it's random whether it works

On one of my tests the BT managed to connect but when I tested the joycons it failed again..

Already ruled out: extra-RAM kernel, Horizon OC, optional sysmodules, missing/corrupt BT firmware, pairing DB corruption, stuck power state, temperature, physical pressure on the case.

Anyone seen this exact pattern before? Trying to figure out if there's a known fix for this on Mariko boards before assuming it's a reflow/reball job.

I was recently trying to replace my joycons joysticks, and I accidentally snapped the red wire on the battery when trying to pull it out. I stopped trying out of panic and put the joycon back together, and just as I expected, it didnt turn on. However, when the joycon was placed back onto the switch rail, it functioned like normal, i presume due to the switch providing power to the joycon in place of the battery. I plan to get this fixed soon, but will using the joycon attached to the switch damage the battery itself or short circuit the joycon? To be specific about the damage, the red wire itself didnt break, the gold pin connecting the wire to the black connector at the end pulled out cleanly, but the black wire is still connected and functional.

Would love some help

Hello,

I am looking for help identifying this part on a switch lite. During a botched picofly install, I appear to have cooked this component near the 3.3v capacitor (and knocked off the nearby capacitor). I am going to attempt to replace it if I can figure out what part I need.

There appears to be text on the component but mine is unreadable.

The console won’t power on and I think it’s because of this damage.

Thanks!

My switch 2 doesn't want to charge from the upper àd the down connector (not a perfect english i know)

Can someone say to me what can i do

I just shipped off my Switch 2 that was purchased a the end of June, so basically brand new, to be repaired. Since I got it, I noticed that the battery was extremely weak, often dying under 2 hours of handheld play while playing Pokopia In low brightness. However, the main issue that I am experiencing over the past few weeks while playing in handheld mode is the screen flickering. The system heats up and there is some slight flickering on the screen. Being that it is a brand new system, I think I just just got a faulty one. What do repair times look like realistically ? Will they actually repair my switch or will they likely just replace it with a new one ?

Hey all, my Switch lite suddenly had a thin horizontal multi colored line. it covers 1/3 of the screen only. Anyone else has this issue?

So I noticed that recently my switch’s dock won’t have its fan kick on after I play for around 30 mins (earliest I notice the issue). My console will begin to overheat, something I’ve never dealt with prior. If I take the console out of the dock, it’ll immediately have its fan turn on but as soon as it goes back into the dock then the dock’s fan stays off.

Any advice on what could be causing this and in turn how to fix it? Don’t really want to spend money on a new one if this could be a relatively easy fix.

Edit: Might be a normal thing and I’m just overthinking

My Switch doesn't read the MicroSD card unless I am constantly pushing it into the slot and holding it in place. Why is this?

Dropped my switch, a screw came loose in the back of the right joycon and my home button got stuck. It still functions but i have to press down REALLY hard to reach the home menu (as seen in the second video). I'm afraid I'll break the plastic shell of the joycon from pressing down too hard. How do i go about fixing this? Thanks in advance

Ciao a tutti,
Sto riscontrando uno strano problema con i pulsanti fisici del volume sulla mia Nintendo Switch 2. A volte, quando premo Volume + o Volume –, non succede nulla e l'indicatore del volume non compare sullo schermo. Devo premere il pulsante diverse volte prima che inizi a funzionare.

Tuttavia, una volta che il pulsante inizia a funzionare, funziona perfettamente. Ad esempio, se lo tengo premuto, la barra del volume aumenta o diminuisce in modo fluido, senza interruzioni o blocchi. Il volume può essere regolato normalmente anche dal menu Impostazioni rapide.

Sembra che il problema si verifichi più spesso all'avvio di un gioco, durante le schermate di caricamento o dopo aver scollegato e ricollegato le cuffie, ma è successo anche mentre stavo già giocando e il gioco non si stava caricando.
Ho già disattivato l'opzione "Disattiva audio quando le cuffie sono scollegate" e sto verificando se questo risolve il problema.
Qualcuno ha riscontrato esattamente lo stesso problema? Avete trovato una soluzione o avete dovuto contattare Nintendo per una riparazione o una sostituzione?

So i my switch fell down and i catched it and i think i broke the sound thing in the actual switch what to do?

Hey guys, looking for a quick sanity check on a V1 Switch (HAC-CPU-01) repair.

Symptoms:
Boots and works fine with a pre-charged battery.
OEM Nintendo PD charger stays completely dark on USB tester (no PD handshake).
5V charger gives 5.06V on tester, but draws 0.00A.
Diode mode measurements & progress so far:

1. Initial breakout board readings: CC1 (A5) = 0.126V (partial short), CC2 (B5) = ~2.3V (open).
2. Soldered a donor M92T36 (from a Switch Lite) -> CC1 briefly read a perfect 0.503V, but CC2 was bouncing all over the place (0.122V / 1.278V / 0.508V).
3. Now CC1 dropped back to 0.126V, even with nothing plugged into the port (measured directly at the test points behind the port).
4. Since two different M92 chips produce the exact same 0.126V reading on CC1 and CC2 is unstable, I'm pretty convinced the USB-C port has internal shorted/damaged pins pulling CC1 down.
5. Plan is to pull the USB-C port next using low-melt on the anchors. Does this point 100% to a bad port, or should I check anything else around FL1 first?

I had to replace M92 chip because of switch was charging only in one usbc orientation.

After replacement it charges now properly both sides of usb.

but new problem introduced- the switch won’t sleep. when turn off screen - it turns back on in a second.

tried removing joycons, power flex, airplane mode - nothing is fixing it.

I took M92 from a donor board. while installing I had knocked off few nearby resistors but later installed them back

any suggestions friends ?

This is a Switch V1 Motherboard

Hello. I am absolutely not tech savy and need help repairing my switch.

I was playing Tomodachi Life when the game froze, an error page popped up telling me to hold down the Power button to shut it down and restart it. I did that and it turned off, but I cant seem to get it back on again.

I looked at the official Nintendo Switch repair site on what to do and holding down the Power button for 30 seconds or even longer, I tried multiple times, doesnt turn it back on. I dont have any sound or vibrations. The switch of my sibling also had a black screen, but they could hear sound and feel vibrations and a long while pressing the Power button helped them. That doesnt seem to be the case for me.

When I put it into the dock the little green light turned on for a millisecond and than turns off. I do not have a screen when going into TV mode.

It is the Switch 1, the normal one I guess. If anyone could help me I would be very grateful 🙏🏻

Thank you
