    Hardware Resistor identification

    Oh derp. Yes. Both 7.68k and 7.8k replacement resistors CAN be in the tolerance for a theoretical 7.7k resistor. My concern was if either replacement skewed further away from the value I wanted to match, but I’ll follow your suggestion of buying several and testing to see who is closest. The...

    Hardware Resistor identification

    I looked on digikey and Mouser and those resistor values were the closest I could find. I didn't find any alternative tolerance values above 1%, and, as you suggested, thought Nintendo possibly used resistors with a higher tolerance value that would actually put the resistors in range since 1%...

    Hardware Resistor identification

    Unfortunately both resistors are close but neither actually meet the value of the resistor, even if the tolerance is entirely skewed towards the value of the measured resistor. 7.68k: 7.756 at best as you calculated. 7.87k with 1% tolerance: 7.79 at best I’m not sure how critical the...

    Hardware Update Fake Pro Controller?

    If it’s not saved, it’s possibly an easy fix just by swapping rockers then, right? Not a hard experiment if he has wick, flux, an iron, and experience :D

    Hardware Update Fake Pro Controller?

    Have you tried replacing the analogue sticks and seeing if it’s a sensor issue? How is memory of calibration saved on cheaper controllers?

    Hardware Grinding Fan Noise

    ^^^^ But also, consider buying some thermal pads and repasting the video card in your Switch to keep it cooler in general, which will also make your new fan come on less often and preserve the life of your fan and other Switch parts...

    Hardware Does a Nintendo Switch boot without display installed?

    @ds34, Did you ever finish this project? I’m curious what resistors you removed to make the console function without a battery.

    Hardware Components used on the Switch (mostly the motherboard and main console)

    Posting some additional photos of labeled components. - main chips on motherboard (front and back) - main chips on switch dock - board game card - one of the joy cons

    Hardware Resistor identification

    Hi! I hope everyone is staying healthy and safe! Long story short, I blew two resistors on my Switch motherboard. It’s the older-style OG model. Other resistors feel secure, so maybe those two were why I had glitches. I don't know how to assess for more damage in other parts of the...
