For my Switch Lite, I bought a regular SD card to have more storage. But every time the console shuts down, corrupted data appears, and I have to reformat the card over and over again each time My switch keeps running out of battery. Any idea why this is happening?.

Not mine, but a friend's that asked for help.

Said he got a black stripe across the screen while playing. Allegedly no drops or hits occurred.

Switch works fine while docked.

Took it to a 3rd party shop to repair, they told him there was nothing they could do and gave him back the switch, but the screen wouldn't turn on (You could see the back light turning on, though).

I ordered a new screen to replace it, but decided to open it up to take a look just in case. The shop did an incredibly poor job, many of the screws where stripped, the thermal paste was completely removed(but they didn't replace it), and the ribbon cable was somewhat mangled.

I cleaned the pins on the ribbon cable, reseated it, and this is what it shows now instead of a black screen. It should be the screen but I'm worried they managed to damage the connector while "working" on it.

TL;DR Black stripe appeared across screen. Took it to a shop, screen wouldn't turn. Reseated cable, screen shows this. What are the chances the connector is fucked instead of the screen?

Bonjour, j’ai un problème avec ma Nintendo Switch modifiée.

Quand je fais un **test de connexion Internet**, j’obtiens l’erreur **2160-8007** (« le serveur ne répond pas »).

Le plus bizarre, c’est que **toutes mes cartouches sont bien détectées par la Switch**, le jeu apparaît normalement sur l’écran d’accueil, mais lorsque je lance le jeu, la console me demande de **télécharger quelque chose** et ça ne fonctionne pas.

Ça me le fait avec **toutes mes cartouches**, pas seulement une.

Est-ce que quelqu’un sait d’où peut venir ce problème ? Est-ce que l’erreur 2160-8007 peut être liée au problème avec les cartouches ?

Not sure if Yall can see it but there's this Crack on my switch 2 screen. Besides that it works fine but like I try to ignore it but I always catch it on the corner of my eye and it gets on my nerves lol. Would yall send yalls switch 2 in for repair for this. Note I am under warranty so It would be done for free but I dont want my switch w gone for weeks.

where you get quality switch 2 screen replacement ?

I’ve had my switch for probably 3 years now and my controllers did disconnect a lot the past year but now my left one fully won’t turn on no matter what I do. It wasn’t even a user error just died on its own which for 3 years is ridiculous to have to get a new one that’s $80!!!

I need help with cleaning my cartridge slot on my stitch 2 due to a cartridges glue getting inside it, this makes it so sometimes it doesn't read the cartridge I put inside, im most likely going to go for isopropyl alcohol and q tip but what % should I go for and any other tips?

Please tell me that there's some at home tricks, that I can put some type of glue and stick a small piece of plastic on it to make my right joystick work or something, I really do not wanna solder anything.

Is there anything that can be done? I don’t mind if it’s a bit costly, but I want to repair it since it was my first console.

Took me roughly 5 hours just trying to get the battery out, does it look normal? It’s my switch from 2017, took it apart due to the back panel lifting more than before and especially after an overheating incident.

Had a switch that was unused for 2 years and battery ended up dying (wouldn’t charge up, overheat within 15 mins)

Got a new battery from ifixit, repasted thermal paste and played in dock mode for 30 ish minutes and got a message that it’s overheating still

Any ideas of what I can do or what went wrong? Used thermal grizzly kryonaut thermal paste, switch didn’t seem like it had a lot of dust or anything in it when it was open.

Side note: it feels like games take an excessive amount of time to load, Luigi’s mansion took 2-3 mins to load up initially, unsure if it has to do with the SD card reader being attached/detached or damage during the process? Game is virtually on the SD card not physical

I've got a Mariko switch , SD card and game card do not read, touch screen not responding.

is it repairable?

I've fitted done a couple of picofly installs successfully and rebuilt joycons but feel this may be beyond my skill set.

purchased recently for cheap, not opened it up yet but the joycons are easily worth what I paid

Hey everyone, looking for insights on a weird battery issue that popped up on my modded Switch. I haven't seen symptoms like these in any forums I've visited.

The console was working completely fine yesterday. I played docked for about an hour playing NieR: Automata, and then by the next day, these problems started happening:

- Percentage Stuck & Dropping: The battery percentage gets stuck around 20% (via Battery-NX / Horizon OS) and drops erratically.

- Abnormally High Battery Temps: Internal battery temperature reaches 48–49°C under load or charging, which is way higher than usual.

- Joy-Con Detection Issue While Charging: When attached to the rails while the Switch is charging, Joy-Cons fail to detect physically and require constant re-attaching or just removing the charger altogether.

Again, all of these issues came up at once

Model: Switch V1 with Picofly Modchip

Charging Setup: Official Dock, but I'm using a Xiaomi 67W fast charger which may be the reason for all of this stuff. Because I combined the 67W charger with the official dock.

Could this require a fuel gauge/power management ic replacement? Like could this be an expensive repair?

Hello, I recently got a damaged switch lite and it seems to be a wrong picofly instalation 3 of the capasitors (both sp1 and sp2 which I know have the same value of 1µF) and then there’s another one, the 3rd one from left to right on the same row which is also missing somehow, I’d assume is also a 1µF right? Just so I know to buy a bunch of those and replace them

wont turn on properly and wont connect to the tv when i place it on the dock, cant activate it on the dock by pressing the home button, no experience regarding fixing electronics
