I'm glad you pointed out that the Switch was a good console for beginners to try repairing. I'm new to repairing and decided to start by fixing switches recently and wasn't sure what to think as a beginner. Love your switch repair videos; they are really helpful!
Love watching all your videos regardless of what’s being repaired. Still waiting for some oled switch repair content. Wanna hear your opinions of the build quality and or repairability of Nintendo’s update to the switch oled, since you’ve been working on switches for a long time. I think your take on it would hold so much more value
@TheCod3r, can you spread the knowledge for how to remake your genius test cable? I pulled the battery-boards from both a Lite and V1 battery and neither seem to able to boot known-working Switchs. I soldered my bench wires to the 2 main pads for - + on the B-board with 4.2V/1A being supplied.
If you clipped the battery off the board and connected the two wires to where the batteries used to connect to then you are more than likely not getting a ground signal at the pins that connect to the switch board. To test use a meter to test the two black wires for ground and the two red wires for voltage. What I saw is that the two positive (RED) pins had 4.2v (bench ps was set to 4.2), but the negative had nothing. if This is the case then solder a wire the the P- right under the two black wires (the wires that connect to the actual switch MB) on the battery board and use that as the negative on your bench ps. Hope this helps someone else out as I originally tried two boards and couldn't get it to work.
Can tell you was tired as seventy one and then increase on write up to seventy two.but love watching theses video, keep going.enjoyable and I'm hoping to watch earlier video when I eventually on dialysis.
Hi, I have question a Nintendo switch switch came in for repair I change the usb port and P13 chip as it had shots. Now switch is fix working and charging fine. But the problem is it is not docking. I have checked LCD connector it is fine as well and there is no shot around M92 chip as well. But still not image on TV. What could the problem and advice
Random question, my ps5 , after playing for a few hours, disconnects from my wi-fi , and then can't find or reconnect wifi bands without me restarting the console or turning it off and then on again. Sometimes the wi fi works for days, sometimes it drops every 15 minutes. My console is under warranty, but the shop that i bought it from are very doggy and apparently their service crew is on vacation. In short, does it sound like a software or hardware problem? Thank you in advance
@TheCod3r I'm not disagreeing that it works.. I've just always been programmed to clean everything out tin the pads, etc..ect im sure you know what im talking about.. I'll have to try this method. What's your source for low melt leaded solder? Your link brings up nothing? Cheers 🍻
@twonirwin4056 we all have our own methods mate. I guess it's whatever works, but I've always found the drop method works perfectly for me. For low melt solder I generally buy large packs from amazon but the link keeps changing lol. I wouldn't really recommend low melt for switches though because it runs the risk of tearing the bottom row of pads

Excellent video, keep it up.
Thanks for the vid, these Switches are fetching high prices even as faulty, what other devices would you recommend for starters repairs. Thanks
Brilliant mate.
Nice result 👍
Big fan of your work

I get the same mate ? Did you work it out ?

It might never be the capacitor, but one time in a video I saw it was one of the diodes around the chip.
“Yankee Bucks” 🤣👊🏼
I definitely need to know your ebay details. Much rather buy from you than anyone else on there. Want to get a switch for my 8yr old 😊
I always use a drop of alcohol when removing the foam. Once it evaporates, the stickiness comes back ;)
Top !!! Witch leading solder you use ?
Kester
I'm still trying to get a nintendo switch with the joycons to work on, rarely see them with included joycons etc
Great vid
What dock is that, that you used?
Love to make a switch my first repair when I get all my gear together.
I personally like Switch repairs mate.

To be honest I'm not sure, it sounds like hardware but I've never come across that myself so it could be anything really
@@TheCod3r thank you for your reply, i will just fight with the warranty. I ll let you know if i ever came across the root of the problem.
Nice to get a good one you can make a decent profit on every now and then.
It takes a genius to know that they aren't that smart.
thermal paste man
you forgot to replace the thermal paste
I didn't forget it I just cut it out of the video mate
I wouldn't agree with the way you put the usbc port in.. kinda sloppy..
Nothing wrong with the install method bud. It's a proven method which works almost every time
