    • Usa un cacciavite Y00 per rimuovere le quattro viti lunghe 6,3 mm che tengono fermo il pannello posteriore.

    • Nel corso dell'intera procedura di riparazione, tieni traccia di ogni vite e assicurati che torni esattamente dove si trovava prima.

    Had to use a Y0 from my kit - the Y00 was too small to get a grip on the screw.

    cday - Replica

    I also had a much easier time with Y0 versus Y00. Y00 felt like it was starting to strip the first screw I tried to remove.

    Joe -

    My screws took a little coaxing before they were all ready to come out of the back plate, but I remedied this by turning the screwdriver as little as possible with each turn. Use almost no pressure, except for at the very beginning of each screw’s first turn.

    nin10doh - Replica

    I think my screws are stripped, any way to get them out?

    Banjomanperson - Replica

    I hear that using a rubber band can help? Not 100% sure on that though.

    Pifase -

    My top 2 screws are stripped, one into triangle, the other circle, rather than triangle spokes.

    AndrewDaPro - Replica

    This happened when I replaced the micro-sd card slot, which turned out to have replaced the broken one with another one that turns out to be broken. I need to fix the fact that when I reapplied the back cover, the vent was misaligned.

    AndrewDaPro -

    I had huge problems removing the bottom two screws. I continued with the next steps and lifted the plastic shell as much as possible while using the screwdriver and it became an ease.

    • Usa un cacciavite JIS 000 o quello PH 000 ufficiale di iFixit per rimuovere le seguenti viti che fissano il pannello posteriore:

    • Una vite lunga 2,5 mm sul bordo superiore del dispositivo

    • Due viti lunghe 2,5 mm sul bordo inferiore del dispositivo

    • Per evitare di spanare queste viti molto strette, premi verso il basso, lavora lentamente e prova un altro cacciavite JIS 000 o PH 000 se la vite non esce.

    Hey guys, I tried removing the upper screw and it won't go out(neither will it go in) any tips how to fix this?

    Thanks

    Nemysis - Replica

    The screw boss might be stripped out. Has the device been taken apart before? If you can unscrew it a little bit to get the screw to peek out, maybe try and grab it with some pliers as a last-ditch effort.

    Craig Lloyd -

    I have the same problem. The JIS 000 tool works great on the joy con rails per step 5 but refuses to turn the bottom two 2.5 mm screws as in step 4. These bottom screws are noticeably smaller than the screws as in step 5. The JIS 000 does not get down into these screws. Hopefully they haven’t been stripped by the wrong tool. So is there a JIS tool that is smaller than 000? I’m stuck at this point…

    david brown - Replica

    We used the JIS 3.0mm screwdriver for both top and bottom screws and it worked

    Brooklyn Gardner - Replica

    Used PH00 to get these out with no problem.

    cday - Replica

    Fun fact: these screw into little plastic tabs that stick out of the rear panel. Apparently those tabs are fragile and easy to just break off…

    Benjamin Fritz - Replica

    If the screw is turning but not coming out, the plastic tab that it screws into is probably damaged or broken. You’ll need to try to pry the screw out with tweezers as you unscrew it. It is not the end of the world if you can’t screw these back in during reassembly.

    claudio ocano -

    My screws came out fine. But they are easily stripped with too much pressure on reassmbly

    Jaxon Lee - Replica

    this screws are way too fragile and way too small so be careful when taking them off dont use much force and unscrew also one of them fell somewhere and spent 30 mins searching for it

    Richard Aguirre - Replica

    PH000 will work if you don’t have JIS000. The large IFIXIT kit has both and I lost JIS000. Just be very careful as you can strip the heads when removing or inserting easier.

    Shawn Spivey - Replica

    One thing that worked pretty well for me with the screws not coming out is slightly prying on the back cover to put them under some tension

    Florian Kraupa - Replica

    Quick note, these screws are not magnetic. A magnetic screwdriver will hold onto any of the others safely, but you need to be careful not to drop these ones in particular.

    Jason Lane - Replica

    These would just keep rotating and not come out. What worked was, as Florian Kraupa suggested, i slid a plastic pick just between the 2 shells near the screws to prise it open slightly, then unscrewed and out they came. They're the smallest screws I've ever almost not seen before, so be careful with them.

    • Usa un cacciavite JIS 000 o quello PH 000 ufficiale di iFixit per rimuovere le due viti centrali da 3,8 mm ai lati del dispositivo (una per lato).

    I tried my JIS 000 on Step 5 and was unable to get the screw to budge. It’s partner from the other side came right out with no trouble. Don’t really want to narf up the screw, so I bailed out. Anyone else have this issue?

    mrhoyt - Replica

    Could just be torqued down a bit more! I’d recommend making sure the driver bit seats nicely into the screw, apply some downward pressure, and slowly twist to try and back it out. Good luck!

    Craig Lloyd -

    Yeah I’m having this exact issue. Screw stripped and now I’m stuck. Wish I hadn’t even started.

    Ryan Quinn -

    I did finally get it out- one thing I noticed was some of the screws have blue Loctite on the threads. I guess they figure it’ll get tossed around. This underscores the importance of having the correct tools and making double darn sure you are using the correct size, etc.

    mrhoyt - Replica

    What worked for me here was a Phillips 000, not a JIS 000

    One of mine is totally stripped. Guess I can’t do anything now.

    Nick - Replica

    My kit only has two screwdriver heads! The package was open when I received it!

    Cynthia Hyland - Replica

    I had this issue as well. Screw was irreparably stripped. If you can get every other screw out, just keep applying pressure with a flat head screw driver right above the stripped screw and try to break the plastic piece holding onto the screw. It's a very minor invisible bit of damage that will allow you to continue the repair.

    Raymond Garrison - Replica

    after getting all the other screws off I just hinged the back part away and it snapped off neatly where the rusted screw is. not the best solution but it worked.

    Steve T -

    One of my screws was SUPER attached too, but after following a bit noticed the one other in the left that got out nicely, had the plastic tab broken already! So I went ahead and broke the other tab too. So the two side screws are now holding nothing. But I think it will work thanks to the other 4 or 5 screws. Too bad!

    carolaclavo -

    i managed to get out one screw by putting a bit of paper over it which gave the screwdriver something to grip. The other side just won't budge and gets worse the more i try.

    • Durante il riassemblaggio, verifica che il connettore a pressione sotto il pad in schiuma sia ben connesso alla scheda madre. Può essere utile rimuovere il pad in schiuma prima di reinstallare il lettore.

    Yes. The reverse is not so simple- you can’t see what you’re doing when you attempt to reconnect and it only takes one small error to completely bend the contacts on the connector. Very delicate.

    if you very gently remove the foam pad sticker, you can at least see better how it lines up and can feel your way to a degree… then you can stick the pad back in. The pad seems pretty critical in keeping things in place once reassembled.

    holmzee - Replica

    Definitely agree about not sticking the foam pad back on until the new SD card slot is connected. Saved a lot of headache. Great walkthrough and easy repair!

    Jonathan Stachewicz -

    Tried several times to replace this SD reader module. As mentioned above, the issue is aligning the connectors together. It appears the foam tape is being used to hold the connection in place. (assuming you can make a viable connection) I am rather surprised at this design. In my experience, mylar ribbon cables like this usually slide into a small PC mounted socket. It appears Nintendo went the cheap route here. This design is prone to failure since it does not enable a positive connection - at least from what I can see.

    Had my son follow this guide to fix his own switch where the ad card reader didn't work. And he did. Great instructions!!!! Thanks a million!

    William Scott - Replica

    The only difficult part of following this guide is connecting the new sd card reader into the poorly designed motherboard connector. Its quite possible the sd card reader that came in the console wasnt broken at all.

    The repair kit works just as advertised and even comes with stickers.

    Tip: Keep the old SD reader piece loosely attached while you line up and gently press the new SD component into the connector on the motherboard. Once the new piece is snug, then carefully remove the old piece keeping the sticky foam in place.

    I am a middle-aged mom with absolutely no special tech skills and I easily followed the directions and successfully fixed the broken SD drive. ifixit is the best!

    J.R. Wood - Replica

    This helped me to reseat my SD card reader ribbon cable. I was getting the 2016-0641 error and no card work. A drop had dislodged the cable partially. And yes remove the foam pad gently to properly connect the cable. You can reuse the foam pad.

    Kris Morey - Replica

    For anyone who ends up bending the pins like I did while trying to reseat the microSD card reader…

    I suggest gently placing very thin tweezers (like the curved ones in the Pro Tool Kit) in the gap and very, very gently pressing them back into alignment. Took a little effort but I was able to realign them enough to sit it in place and have it later working after reassembling the console.

    Yakarot Sennin - Replica

    R de Bruijne - Replica

    It is key to remember most out of the box issues with the SD card reader, do not require a replacement part and can be solved with disconnecting then re-connecting the reader at the motherboard.

    Only when a simple re-seating at the connector doesn't work should you buy the replacement part.

    Jonathon Sinclair - Replica

    I bought the kit and followed the directions. I plucked the black rubber foam off with a pair of eyelash tweezers. Putting the tiny screws back in place also was made easier using the tweezers. As for placing the SD card in place I think I got a bit lucky. I lined it up and gently pressed until it simply went into place. I do believe being gentle is the key there. But it went in and I put it back together. The deconstructing and reconstructing is what took the longest for me at least. I turned it on to verify it worked and then unpowered the unit and inserted the card. The system recognized and update right away and did it and then recognized the card! Just what I need for 20 something dollars. Son is happy and back to gaming.

    Albert Baker - Replica

    Thank you for postingthis fix. The original sd card reader had come unplugged from the motherboard, so replacement reader will be a spare.

    Anybody found a way to ensure the sd reader stays in place?

    Craig Thwaites - Replica

    It was my first time repairing a Switch and the fan replacement wasn't too hard, but unfortunately I think there should be a better warning about the SD card connector because I damaged it while trying to put it back in. I couldn't hear any click and it didn't seem to stay put and I think I ended up applying to much force and damaging the pins.

    How do you know if the thermal paste needs to be replaced?

    Youji Hong - Replica

    Once you remove a heatsink you must always replace thermal paste even if you had just applied it ( or add a little more) . The reason is that once heat sink is fitted, paste splits around because of pressure and only needed amount will remain. If you remove the heatsink then some paste will move so when installed again there will be spots without paste. Hope this is clear enough. In any case cost of paste is very small compared to work time and value of your equipment…..

    When your switch starts to lag and drop FPS, if you play breath of the wild and it starts to slow down in heavy areas like the forest where you get the master sword, can i use artic mx 4 insted of the pink compound?

    Diego Soto - Replica

    I’d like to know as well if a cpu thermal compound like arctic mx-4 can be used to replace the pink compound

    Adam Stillman - Replica

    No you shouldn't . It will spill around because it is not viscous enough and then there will be no heat transfer. As suggested by author K5 PRO is the most appropriate compound for such cases.

    MacTek -

    Arctic is generally only supposed to be used on bigger heat sinks like a personal computer. Its not nearly as thick or gummy compared to K5 PRO, and you should always use something that’s thicker for smaller project like a Switch/phone/tablet.

    • Ti basta staccare la schiuma per liberare la ventola.

    • La schiuma è davvero delicata e tende a strapparsi facilmente. Usa la seguente tecnica per rimuovere la schiuma:

    • Inserisci la punta di uno spudger sotto la parte di schiuma che non è a contatto con nulla.

    • Premi il lato superiore della schiuma con un dito per tenerla ferma.

    • Ruota la punta dello spudger sotto la schiuma fino all'altra estremità per staccarla.

    spudger technique is perfect.

    Jaxon Lee - Replica

    For anyone who doesn’t have a pen-style spudger, the tip of your JIS 000 screwdriver can be a great alternative tool. The same steps above can be used, just be extra careful not to tear that foam. Roll the tip of the screwdriver the same way you would roll the spudger tip.

    • Usa uno spudger o le dita per sollevare il dissipatore verso l’alto e in direzione opposta alla scheda madre, per rimuoverlo.

    • Potresti avvertire un po’ di resistenza. È normale: il dissipatore è debolmente incollato alla CPU con della pasta termica.

    • Ripulisci la vecchia pasta termica dal dissipatore e dalla CPU, utilizzando dell’alcol isopropilico altamente concentrato (90% o superiore) e un panno in microfibra. Applica della nuova pasta termica sulla CPU prima del riassemblaggio.

    1. I ended up eyeballing the amount. Imagine an amount the size of a pea, then split that amount in half. That’s how much I used, and it worked fine.

    2. The paste (I used K5-Pro as recommended) is quite thick and sticky and difficult to get to behave the way you want, so I ended up just doing the “middle dot” method and spreading it a bit with a popsicle stick before smushing it the rest of the way down with the heat sink. Seems to have done the trick.

    Good luck!

    Travis -

    you can also spread it with the spudger or any non-metalic tool if you are not sure how much you put

    just clean it afterwards

    Richard Aguirre -

    K5 (or thermal pads) is ONLY needed between the copper pipe and metal shield plate. It is a pad replacement compound and is not meant for high heat applications like CPUs as it boils and creates air gaps. Air=bad for heat transfer.

    Regular thermal compound/paste should be used on the CPU. You’ll have a sticky mess to clean but if you want proper cooling it needs to be done. The instructions clearly state that regular compound is used on the CPU.

    i used artic silver 5 and worked just fine

    Richard Aguirre - Replica

    The steps doesnt specify but do you have to remove the heat shield from the cpu as well?

    This step broke my switch i can't use my card reader anymore! i tried numerous time the reverse it seems my headphone jack works but my touchscreen and gamecard reader is broken. Even worse one of the screws to attach this plate was mangled so i cant even replace it anymore because the screw wont come out anymore. I reallly hate that i followed this guide others suggested to just keep the gamecard touchscreen ribbon attached and just fold it like a book. I wished i did that. I not gonna bother to even buy an gamecard replacement anymore. Its time to buy an switch oled and be done with this!

    Kar Wai Chan - Replica

    The advice to "fold it like a book" will not work, as the cable will need to come out of the switch in order to replace the screen. It can not be kept in the slot.

    Loris Hofer -

    To anyone reading this step: This is not an isolated incident. The loss of functionality of the game reader board, which includes the use of reading cartridges, the touchscreen, and the headphone jack, is an possibility that can happen if you disconnect the board. Unless you are replacing the board itself, do not do this step. As of 1/15/2023, there is no know reason why this happens or no known solution other than buying a new game reader board.

    Update: If your Switch has lost the ability to read games and or the headphone jack in addition to touchscreen functionality, please consider reading this thread and its solution: Nintendo Switch Cartridge Reader Not Working After Fan Replacement

    • Usa un paio di pinzette per sfilare il cavo dalla sua presa parallelamente alla scheda per la lettura delle schede di gioco.

    • Prima di inserire il cavo durante il rimontaggio, assicurati che la linguetta di blocco del connettore ZIF sia sollevata.

    • Con il cavo parallelo alla scheda, inseriscilo delicatamente nel suo connettore.

    • Non forzare il cavo nel connettore. Se non si inserisce, assicurati che la linguetta di blocco sia alzata, riposiziona il cavo e riprova.

    • Se il touchscreen non funziona dopo la riparazione, ma il lettore di schede di gioco funziona, assicurati che questo cavo sia correttamente inserito. Se neanche il lettore di schede di gioco funziona, controlla invece il connettore della scheda di gioco nel passo successivo.

    The reverse of this is a little tricky - it may be helpful to post some more detail about getting the ribbon all the way back in and ensuring the clasp goes down to troubleshoot some of the touchscreen comments below.

    Did you get it to work finally?!

    Chris Cotter - Replica

    Hi Chris! From the thread, it looks like it's not this connector that's the problem, but the press connector in the step below. If your card reader won't read cards, check to make sure this connector is fully aligned and seated.

    Arthur Shi -

    This connection was a problem for me. I tried the connection many times before it worked. What finally worked was lining up the gold rectangle on the back of the smaller part to overlap/cover the port very carefully. This required me to compress the ribbon a bit. Not much force required to finish the connection.

    Tyler Rhodes - Replica

    I found it much easier to reinsert the ribbon while the reader board was fully disconnected. This way I was able to simply hold the reader board with my fingers and slide it over the end of the ribbon while the ribbon was just sticking up in the air. The ribbon is quite stiff and slipped in VERY easily in such a way that I felt confident that it was fully seated. Then while holding it in one hand, I flipped the locking flap down with a spudger in the other. You might also be able to seat the board and the ribbon will likely stay inserted under its own tension, then flip the locking flap down.

    • Usa la punta di uno spudger per rimuovere dalla sua presa sulla scheda madre il connettore della scheda per il jack audio e il lettore di schede di gioco.

    • Per riattaccare i connettori a pressione come questo, allinea attentamente e premi su un lato finché non scatta in posizione, quindi ripeti sul lato opposto. Non premere al centro. Se il connettore è mal allineato, i pin possono piegarsi e causare danni permanenti.

    • Se lo schermo touchscreen non funziona e/o le schede di gioco non vengono rilevate dopo il rimontaggio, potresti non aver ricollegato completamente questo connettore a pressione. Disconnettilo con attenzione e riprova.

    Note that if the card reader mentions it won't read cards, this cable has not been reconnected correctly. Watch the connectors are not bent when reattaching

    Shaniqua Bowdre - Replica

    You need to push the connector upwards. Look at the image and you will see a very slight bend. This bent allows the connector to align with its dock. Very very careful when pressing down IT HAS TO BE ALIGNED.

    Juan Visani - Replica

    This step had me most stressed during re-assembly. I saw in a video elsewhere where the person reattached the press connector BEFORE screwing it back in which gave them more room to work with. They also pointed out that there's an outline on the top that should line up with where it reconnects. This helped me re-connect with more confidence.

    Level 100 Psyduck - Replica

    I also reconnected this connector before screwing the reader down. You will not have to contend with the pressure from bending the stiff wide cable leading from the connector.

    • Scalda un iOpener e appoggialo al bordo inferiore dello schermo per un paio di minuti per ammorbidire l'adesivo.

    • Puoi anche usare un asciugacapelli, una pistola termica o una piastra scaldante, ma stai attento a non surriscaldare il dispositivo: lo schermo e la batteria sono facilmente danneggiabili dal calore eccessivo.

    I used a hair dryer because I don’t own a microwave and didn’t like the idea of boiling the iOpener - which apparently doesn’t work that well anyway. For reference, the hair dryer I used was a CONAIR 1875 Styler. I also used an infrared thermometer, which you’ll absolutely need if you’re not going to use the iOpener. You need the infrared thermometer because you must know when to stop heating the digitizer. There are delicate components nestled in the top of the Switch’s faceplate - right where you’ll be putting the heat. To begin:

    1. Prepare your work area by clearing the surrounding surfaces of anything plastic, metal, or electronic - surrounding areas are sure to reach temps of up to 110 °F (43 °C).

    2. Get something non-conductive like a small cardboard box to rest the disassembled Switch on top of. This will help to target the heat on the specified area, depending on which step you’re on.

    nin10doh - Replica

    3. Grab a piece of cardboard and cut it to the shape of the Switch screen, or around the same size. You will need this cardboard to protect the LCD and delicate internals.

    4. Set your infrared thermometer to the side or somewhere close to the spot where you’ll be heating the digitizer.

    5. Grab your hairdryer and set that to the side as well.

    6. Position the Switch on the cardboard box so that you are ready to begin heating the first side of the digitizer as specified in Step 28. I found that it was easier to have the heated side facing me, so that I can hold the hairdryer more comfortably.

    7. Begin heating the bottom of the digitizer, starting on the lowest setting of your hairdryer. You’ll want to hold the hairdryer just close enough that you have about three or so inches between the heat and the Switch itself. Heating the digitizer will take some time, so do not expect the temperature to rise rapidly. A rapid rise in temperature can damage sensitive internal components, even with the cardboard piece in place.

    nin10doh - Replica

    8. After 1 min 30 sec, check the digitizer temperature and make sure that the surface temperature (the opaque black border, not the actual screen) registers at 130 °F (54 °C) or higher. Continue heating on Low until a temperature of 130 °F (54 °C) or higher is reached.

    9. When a temperature of 130 °F (54 °C) or higher has been reached, raise the hairdryer another two to three inches from the digitizer. Switch your hairdryer heat setting to High ( or Med, for three-temp hairdryers) and continue heating until a temperature of 161 °F (71 °C) has been reached. Check the temperature every 2 secs to ensure even, consistent heating. Once a temperature of 161 °F (71 °C) has been reached, do not heat the digitizer any further. Doing so could damage the LCD, internal antennas, or faceplate.

    10. Repeat steps 6 thru 9 alongside the guide (Steps 28 thru 38) to complete the digitizer adhesive softening process.

    Good luck! If this causes anyone any problems, reply here and I’ll try to respond as quickly as possible.

I need to buy a new frame for the switch not front or rear panel, where do i get one of these? the vent at the top is broken.

Andrew Hammond - Replica

You need the front panel. These are usually sold as a set of the front and back. When you do the replacement, make absolutely sure you transfer the translucent light guide (small piece of white plastic) and the adhesive speaker covers over. One good thing about this replacement is that you don’t have to remove the motherboard or even disconnect the joycon guide rails completely from the middle mounting panel. Take your time, and be very patient. This replacement means detaching the digitizer and screen.

If you can’t find the case here, you might be able to find it on Amazon.

Can I use HY-883-4g CPU Thermal Paste Kit-6.5 W/MK CPU Paste instead of the K5-pro thermal paste? Are there other thermal paste recommendations? Thank you.

You can use any thermal paste, if you already got one. If you need to buy one, thek5 pro is our suggestion.

Can you use the viscous thermal paste for both places (heat sink and cpu)? So I don’t need to buy 2 different ones.

Thank you guys I should have come here for instructions first. Destroyed my display following extremerate's guide on disassembly since they say to start at the right edge and I completely severed a ribbon cable. I guess that part is my bad but I'm still very frustrated at the whole thing. A simple digitizer/front panel swap became a $40 more expensive endeavor.

Super Anleitung! Habe parallel dazu ein YT-Video geguckt und beides hat sich bestens ergänzt. Schwierigkeitsgrad für mich als Laien eher mittel, statt schwierig.

Marcel - Replica

Great guide, thanks. You don't have to remove the heatsink by the way, you can remove and reinstall the connector underneath the heat pipe with a plastic spudger tool just fine, so you can save yourself some thermal paste and effort. The screen is also very resilient unlike glass ones, I was replacing mine with a laminated version so I didn't care for it's health, and pried up from one of the speaker holes without any heat and with a screw driver, until I could get a guitar pick in the gap. Despite all of that the screen came out completely unscathed. I'd perhaps lower the score to medium with those differences.

Robin Rai - Replica

After following the guide and installing the new LCD screen, my screen is black, while docked, the Switch works.

Any idea?

Is it possible that the screen was broken? or the connector has an issue, if yes, how can i test it?
