Hi everyone,

I purchased a Nintendo switch that had a repair attempt before.

The switch turns on but has 2 issues:

- It does not charge but I get a charging symbol when connected to power. It draws 0.09A, 15V
- Power button only works to turn on the switch or force shutdown. The console does not go to sleep or wakes up by using this button.

The previous owner ripped the battery connector and a few pads, but I have connected another battery (known good) through jumper wires.

Charging port looks good, diode readings seem normal. M92 and P13 have no shorted caps.

I have already replaced BQ chip and MAX17050 but same result. The only weird thing I found is that I get a diode reading of 1.130 on VBUS, which should be lower from what I've seen.

Does anyone know what could be the cause of this issue?

Thank you!

    Do you have a surge protector or an UPS?
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea but to play the next gen games, you must have those games on internal, or buy the official ssd expansion cards, which are expensive
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @MysticStarlight, dunno what each one of those are
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @MysticStarlight, my PS3 was already modded when my dad bought it for me and my brother
  • MysticStarlight @ MysticStarlight:
    A surge protector is a device that protects your electronics from fluctuations. I recommend having your console plugged into one of those
  • MysticStarlight @ MysticStarlight:
    An UPS is even better because it has an internal battery that keeps your system on even if the power goes out, but it's much more expensive obviously
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @MysticStarlight, oh i recall seeing one in some in the houses of some relatives, including my dad's apartment
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @MysticStarlight, although whatever device we plug into them stops getting power anyways lol
  • MysticStarlight @ MysticStarlight:

    On the series s/x you can use a external HD but any next gen games must be on your internal ssd, or you can buy a ssd expansion card, but pricey. Any xbone, 360, or og Xbox games can be played from external tho.
