Hi
I have a Switch with a strange charging issue. With the charger plugged in one way it charges fine, if I rotate the charger, it shows as not charging, the charger is only at 5v. If I put the switch to sleep then wake it up again it starts charging at 15v.
I’ve replaced the Port, BQ, M92 and the P13USB twice but it’s no different.
Does anyone know what could be going off?

thanks

Sorted it. On one CC line it measured open circuit to gnd, on the other it measured 14k. The little dug/7c ESD protection diode was the problem
Can you link a picture of that please. I am having a similar issue with usb c working one way and not the other.

It’s on the underside of the motherboard near to the USB port
Were you testing based on a good console? You said it shorthed to ground and the other measured 14k did you mean on a second console? Any chance you can post a picture of the component at some point?

yes, I checked it against another console. On the faulty console one of the CC lines read 14k to gnd.

    @K3Nv2 what was your ps4 situation
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    did you always have a ps4 you never updated
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    or were you able to get new ps4 tracking it \
    as soon as the hack was announced
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    or did you have to find a used one with the lower firm ware that was not updated
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I got this ps4 at launch and never updated since 9.0
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    You got a good chance of buying a used one and asking the seller how often they used or even ask for a Pic of fw and telling them not to update
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    Speaking of PLaystation. I see Evilnat put out a beta for PS3 CFW 4.91.2 on the 22nd.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Don't really see the point in updating it tbh
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea you right, I thought about updating my PS3 CFW to 4.91, but why really, everything plays fine now. I guess for people that have already updated past 4.9 it would be helpful.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Idk if online servers are still active that would be my only thought

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Thats true, personally I don't play it online at all, in fact, I deleted all wifi details on it once I installed CFW, so it won't connect and auto-update itself
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I play most games that are on both PS3/360 strickly on the 360, but PS3 exclusives are really only games I play on the PS3 (You know me, I'm more of a Xbox junkie)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Ps3 really has no titles worth going online
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
