    Hey everyone. I'm sorry the music is a little bit loud in this video. I'll make sure I lower the volume next time. I edited this on a Mac so I didn't notice it was as loud as it is

    Unless I missed it, check the battery? If it's shut down connect bench supply at no more than 100mA until it gets up to 3.8V. Maybe it won't attempt charging until it sees battery voltage?

    • @TheCod3r
      @TheCod3r  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I could try that but I did try a working battery with 3.8v and it didn't change the symptoms, I just left it out of the video to keep it at 30m :)

    @thecod3r I'm still watching this video so not sure of your result yet. But what I have noticed with oleds if you get any weird power issues, the ALJ chip just go the left the cpu can cause very odd power issues. A reflow on this has been succesful for me 4x now.
    Also, left screw under the battery, take it out, lift bottom plastic up and away, this will make removing the main board and putting it back far easier.

    Had my first OLED the last days and it was very water damaged. After lots of cleaning, reflowing and reballing I still had the same problem as your switch. The small 9-pads IC on the backside of the battery-connector did solve it! Gave this one also a fresh reball and the switch started even fast-charging right away! Maybe this can help someone.

    When you reseat the chip and you press on it and the solder blop comes to the side, isnt it flowing from the center pad (thermal dissipater center) and isnt that sometimes makes a short? does wisking it away or solder tip it with flux isnt the blob still connected under the chip?

    are you sure nintendo haven't put one of those sneaky fuses on these?, this switch is behaving just like the ds lite.
    they would be just like this when the protection fuse was blown.

      and didn't buy.
      as for the motherboard needing the screen connected it doesn't, just the battery, the same as the old switches,
      I know this because when I replaced the WiFi chip. I had the pcb connected to the dock with only the battery and antennas connected.
