Hello!
So 2 days ago my Nex nintendo 2ds Xl started to show me whenever i turned it on a black screen and the light as it was on.
If I hold start or select it shows me the luma thingy and using recovery mode doesn't seem to do stuff.
Anyone knows how to fix it?

Boot into Luma3DS Menu holding "select" on boot and see if you have "disable Arm11 exception handlers" enabled. Uncheck it if it is.
Also what's the last you did with the n2dsxl? Were you playing a game, installed a game, have you seen any errors etc.

You mean you can't access Luma3DS menu when holding select at boot? What about GodMode9 (holding start)?
the menu doesn't boot up and when i press the button to turn the console on it shows the light that is on and then it powers off. maybe because it's on low batter (i am keeping it on this so i can turn it on and off easly without waiting a lot)

Ok.

It's not because of having low battery.. Though it doesn't hurt if you plug it in to charge while doing this.

the fact is that even with holding the power button for 15 seconds then 3 it doesn't seem to turn off so if i don't wanna wait until it gets to 0 battery i can do this and wait some seconds unplugging the charge to get it to die

Sounds like a hardware issue.
Though we will make sure it's not software related issue first, you will start by testing the sd card with h2testw to make sure it's not faulty or defective. Obviously backup you sd card contents before doing so.
Format the sd card as Fat32 32kb cluster size before and after the test.
- if it passes the test, put all the contents back and place the Luma3DS & GodMode9 files from here onto your sd card, and turn it on again.
- if it fails the test, then it's indeed faulty and you to get a new replacement sd card, and testing it out just the same when you get it.

"Then 3" what?

Not sure what you're talking about here..
Try unplugging the battery for a minute and then put it back.

Does the screen backlight come on, and the blue power light shows for a moment, and then there's a pop sound from the speaker and the console turns off?

This happened to me, it was an unseated top-screen ribbon cable.
