My switch appears to be bricked. No powering up when I press the power button (or holding it down for 15 seconds). Previous owner says no physical damage happened, just sat unused for a long time and the battery ran dry. He used Hekate with it and says TegrarcwGUI shows it works and sends the payload successfully it seems, but the screen doesnt turn on at all and otherwise it's completely dead it seems.

Any idea what I should do?

The screen doesnt react at all when sending, or when trying to turn it on normally
If the screen doesn't react at all, but Tegra says the payload was sent successfully after recognizing it was in RCM, then it could be a hardware issue with the screen/connection.

    Just found out he's doing alright, doing a lot of complaining too, rightfully so. Who wouldn't complain after having a seizure and being hospitalized?
