    Need HELP troubleshooting solid Blue screen Nintendo Switch BSOD

    I recently got a switch which did not turn on (blu screen and could not do anything). It draws 15v so battery is charging as normal. I opened it, it's never been touched by anyone, rose old thermal paste still there and foam attached to the heat sync. On microscope I did not see any sign of corrosion or any particular damaged components, only dust. Completely cleaned the board with isopropyl alcohol and give a try with no luck. I cannot exclude that this consol had not being dropped to the ground since it has a sing on external enclosure. Anyway detaching the eMMC screen did not light up and enter in RCM mode ( I can see APX in playload software).

    Any suggestion where and how to check? I can take al measures needed and change components. Just need to be guided trought it. Thanks!

    UPDATE.
    As I read mainly blue screen bsod are caused by bad eMMC/NAND, APU or RAM, often due to a phisical shock. My aim with those tests is to exclude one of it and go to the problem.

    Nintendo Switch does react if I upload playloads (so it's not patched for sure). In details, Biskeydump payload launch without glitch and extract keys, memloader payload also no glitch but it stucks in "error is MTC_LOAD Error during Lzma decompression, got 0 instead of 429…ecc". Injecting Fusee as you can see it fails and display glitches. If I try to load hekate it does not work at all, no image displayed.

      No LCD image after connector replacement – lifted components and damaged resistor (Nintendo Switch Lite HDH-CPU-02)
      by Tomylee
      Hi everyone,

      Sorry for the person who’s going to read all this !
      I'm on a Nintendo Switch Lite, motherboard HDH-CPU-02.

      While replacing the left joystick, I had to remove the motherboard to access the connector underneath. When I lifted the LCD connector latch, it broke (the plastic had become brittle over time), so I replaced the entire connector.

      During the desoldering of the LCD connector using hot air, three small components located just below the connector (likely 0402 capacitors) came off and remained stuck to the bottom of the...

      by estabilito
      Hello, i bought dead nintendo switch oled.
      after plugging charger with amp meter device shows 5v and 0,0 or 0,02 amperage draw.
      I inspected motherboard and someone tried to reflow or replace m92t36 and didn't do it well, i resoldered it proper and find that usb-c fuse was blown too(replaced it).

      I tried to plug motherboard without battery - shows 15 0A and when charger was pluged i put battery back in then console started to charging battery but stuck...

      Nintendo Switch Oled - Joy con charging
      by tommy97
      Hi everyone,

      I'm having an issue with a Nintendo Switch OLED that suffered liquid damage. After a full cleanup and replacing the Joy-Con rails and joysticks, everything was working fine for about a week. However, now the Joy-Cons won't charge or connect again.

      I tested with a second set of Joy-Cons, and the issue persists. Measuring the voltage on the connector shows 3.7V instead of 5V, which I believe should be the correct value.

      Any insights or suggestions on what could be causing this?

      Nintendo Switch lite shuts down after nintendo log and replaced M96T36o
      by fab13
      Hello everyone

      After checking the defective USB-C port and close to a short circuit on the M96T36 chip (8ohm) I have changed both components.
      I specify that there is no other short circuit or heating component(Vu thermal camera)

      First, the problem arises: Error 2101-0001 after the start-up screen ("Nintendo" logo), poor soldering.

      Secondly, I install a new M96T36 and the problem I have is a brief display of the "Nintendo" logo (no short circuit, no sure charge chip, no sure charge port, no sure charge management chip percentage)....
