Recently my switch died (4-6 days ago). At first it wasn’t completely dead dead (i could press the power button and it would show the icon) until a day after from me trying so much. I tried to charge it with five different chargers/ different outlets, nothing worked. But there were a few times where i saw the charging icon. i was on the look out to find someone to repair it… until i brought a fivedollar charger (usb-a to usb-c) then plugged it in my switch then IT WORKED!!! until i brought it home (it was 9% charged) then i tried to dock it (it was with the nintendo licensed charger and dock. Nothing appeared at all and once i tried to plug it back in with my charger/portable and it went back to not charging. I honestly have no idea what to do but i feel like i can fix this since it DID charge. There’s no dirt in my charging port pins nor is there any bending. I truly don’t know what’s wrong. i’ve only had this switch for a year and a quarter. please help 😭 i’m desperate but sending it into repairs is too expensive for me since the total would be 180 bucks (including shipping). If someone could possibly help me with this and tell me if the issue is the charging port, m92 chip, battery, or anything else it would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

Recently, my Switch died (4-6 days ago). Initially, it wasn’t completely dead; I could press the power button, and it would show the icon until a day later from trying so much. I attempted to charge it with five different chargers and different outlets, but nothing worked. However, there were a few times when I saw the charging icon. I was searching for someone to repair it until I bought a five-dollar charger (USB-A to USB-C), plugged it into my Switch, and it worked. When I brought it home (it was at 9% charge), I tried to dock it with the Nintendo licensed charger and dock, but nothing appeared. Once I tried to plug it back in with my charger/portable charger, it went back to not charging. I honestly have no idea what to do, but I feel like I can fix this since it did charge. There’s no dirt in my charging port pins, nor is there any bending. I truly don’t know what’s wrong. I’ve only had this Switch for a year and a quarter. Please help 😭 I’m desperate, but sending it in for repairs is too expensive for me, as the total would be $180 (including shipping). If someone could possibly help me with this and tell me if the issue is the charging port, M92 chip, battery, or anything else, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
