Do you still have warranty? Maybe you can contact Nintendo?

I believe you can do it even it is linked to the app.

I did not reball the donor chip myself. I bought it reballed from a seller. The chip has to come from a Switch, because there is firmware on the chip. If you buy it directly from China the chip will not work.

Thanks for your comment. When the customer returns with the same problem, I will do a factory reset.

I think it is bounded to the location of your account. Maybe you can try make a european account?

@@SaveOurStuff alright cool thx

sorry, but that is not true (most of the time). Tried that many times with this Switch and that didn't help. Look on the internet and most say it's the WiFi chip. Even Nintendo says the Switch has to be repaired if it has an orange screen. If yours was fixed just by hold power for 20 seconds, you're lucky. But if the problem keeps returning the WiFi chip has to be replaced.

@@SaveOurStuffI just came here from the official “solid colored screen” tutorial. Nintendo instructs to hold power button down for 20 seconds, then turn the system back on and look for a new Update Thankfully even though my system was already up to date, off + on was the solution. I’ll use your tutorial if I need help again if that doesn’t work!

@@Jess-ut6yz Yes, sometimes it's just a fault and a reset helps. But it's definatly the WiFi chip. The Switch I repaired in this video had a orange screen every time after a few minutes after restart. So if the problem returns, the Wifi chip has to be replaced.

I wish that worked for all of them. Nintendo can't even fix mine

this will get rid of it but it doesnt stop it from happening again and repeatedly

You are totally right. The reason I tried to repair it, is because the customer came in with a broken lcd and didn't know it was a BSOD. The customer bought the switch for the accessoires that came with it and wanted me to try fix it. When I saw the BSOD I immediately told the customer this is probably a no fix. Like it was.

@@SaveOurStuff I mainly use these consoles to improve my skills, and they are perfect for learning how to do microwelding and microrepairs with traces that are even smaller than 0.1 millimeter. if one day you can successfully repair a console in that state then you can practically declare yourself a master. I have done several repairs like this and after several attempts I can now practically repair everything. the only downside is that it takes a very long time but the amazing feeling that comes from discovering that the repair was successful is indescribable. It truly makes you feel like a god.

I tried that, but gave me a blue screen also.

@@SaveOurStuff thanks reply my question.

yes, you need the ribbon cable with the buttons and the leds on it.

The chips from Ali don't work, because they have to be programmed. The chips must come from other Switch boards. I buy my chips from a seller that takes them of donor boards and reball the chips. If you don't know a seller who sells those chips, you have to reball them yourself.

@@SaveOurStuff First of all, thank you for responding to the message. I had no idea that these chips needed to be programmed! No wonder the M92T36 and WLAN chips didn't work for me and when I took it out of a donor nintendo switch it worked! You have gained one more subscriber, thank you very much. PS: do you have any idea how they are programmed? thanks in advance.

@@franjover4539 De M92T36 (and pi3) chips don't have to be programmed, but there are some bad ones in Ali. I don't know how they are programmed (and if you can program them yourself). Thanks for the subcription! If you like to see something specific in a video, please let me know!

dank je!

Ja. Omdat ik net mijn computer opnieuw had geinstalleerd, had ik de tool er niet op staan. Maar in deze video zie je hoe ik dat doe: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/g6yBadGXzamWpXU.html

Thank you!

Yes, see the update for the revisit. I replace the wifi chip again

Yes sorry, I forgot to turn on my microphone...

I use 500 degrees celsius and 100% airflow. But always circulate the heat otherwise the board gets too hot and de layers will split.

@@SaveOurStuff Thank you

Yes, The USB port has hidden pins, so it's not possible with just a soldering iron.

@@SaveOurStuff thanks!

thanks!

Bit late but most Nintendo products use a tri-wing screwdriver and they're usually very small

I found a repair kit on Amazon for $12 it comes with the tools and replacement parts

I think I about it from Ali Express.

Thanks! Nice to hear I inspired you!

You need soldering skills. On my youtube channel you can see a video of the repair.

Thanks! At 1m46 in the video you see I connect the middle pin of the button to one of the two pads next to eachother.

@@SaveOurStuff yeah that's the pad I managed to melt off then PCB 😬

Ah ok. That never happened to me before, so I don't know any other pads, sorry.

Thank you!
