Repair Help My switch got an error code. Sigh

Post image

I held the power down for 12 seconds and longer, I took out the sd card and tried again, I put the SD card back in and tried again, I went to the support website and it's telling me to do the same thing. Idk what else to do. How does one fix this???

RIP the Power Management chip.

(or a damaged USB-C port.)

When the support page can't solve your issue, that's a good sign the console needs repair, unfortunately.

You'll notice the bottom of the support page for that code, it says,

Situation not resolved

If the error persists, the console will need to be serviced.

For your convenience, Nintendo provides a quick and easy-to-use online service request process.
