Nintendo Switch Lite: retroilluminazione funzionante e suoni ma lo schermo non mostra nulla

Mon, 24 Jun 2024 02:55:02 -0700

Ho sostituito il display danneggiato di una switch lite seguendo la procedura, una volta inserito quello nuovo e richiuso il tutto mi sono accorto però che non mostrava nulla, touch suoni retroilluminazione e tasti funzionano ma non riesco a visualizzare nulla sul display. Ovviamente dal display danneggiato qualcosa si vedeva. Col microscopio ho notato dei pin nel connettore del display che si sono piegati e sono riuscito a riposizionarli, essendo quelli collegati alla parte inferiore del cavo flat non penso sia quello il problema.

Nintendo Switch Lite: Replaced left joystick and now screen doesn't work

Thu, 11 Jul 2024 23:25:15 -0700

I dropped my Switch Lite and the left joystick snapped off.

I was able to connect a Pro Controller until the replacement joysticks came in so I know the unit was working. Bought a 2 pack of replacement sticks. Neither replacement worked and now my screen doesn’t work.

Unit has power. Sound works for all of the buttons & the right stick. Even the left stick makes the boing sound when pushed in but not other sounds up/down, left/right. I only removed the daughter board when replacing the left joystick so I can’t see where/how I could have unplugged the screen.

My dog got a hold of my switch and chewed the corner. Most of it is okay but the L and ZL buttons are destroyed and the left joystick and daughter board definitely took some damage. Where can I find a good daughter board?

Nintendo Switch Lite: Right bumper is stuck in a pressed position.

Thu, 22 Jan 2026 07:20:21 -0700

The right bumper button, not the trigger - the one above it, is stuck in the pressed position.

It doesn’t seem to cause any reaction in the game, so I’m not sure if the contacts are being touched.
Bumper doesn’t rebound when pressed, so maybe that mechanism has slipped away or ???

What’s the right way to fix that? Replace the button? Throw this thing I didn’t want my kids to have against the front window of the grandparents that bought it for them?

Cheers.

Nintendo Switch Lite: Why is my Nintendo Switch Lite backlight not working after shell swap?

Thu, 18 Sep 2025 08:22:03 -0700

I attempted to reshell my Nintendo Switch Lite but there is no backlight when I turn on the console. I can hear sound and the buttons work, and I can see the screen when I shine a flashlight on it. The ribbon cables look fine and I unplugged the battery first so nothing would short. I have had a lot of experience with repairing Nintendo consoles, but I am not sure what is wrong with this one. Should I try to replace the screen?

Nintendo Switch Lite: L button not working

Sat, 15 Jul 2023 18:43:38 -0700

L button constantly registers input. I temporarily disabled it from the settings menu and set capture button in it's stead, but this is not ideal. I googled some and it appears I can purchase both L button (although replacing it would require some soldering I imagine) and the whole left circuit board which has all left hand inputs. My question is: which one would be easier to replace and... can you guys suggest me a good guide?
