I tried doing that new Joy Con fix where you put a cardboard piece inside the controller (can't link it cause I'm a new user). After reassembling the Joy Con, it wouldn't connect to the switch in handheld mode, only work in wireless mode. I read that disconnecting the controllers and reconnecting might fix it, but that just made it stop working altogether.
i opened it again, undid the mod, disconnected and reconnected all the ribbons. Still the same issue. I noticed that when I moved the middle ribbon around and pressed some buttons, the green leds would turn on and off as if there was some bad contact, so i guess the main issue lies there? Does anyone know if that's the ribbon responsible for the controller's sync? Any other help and ideas are hugely appreciated!
Edit: Fixed it! Please read the last post before you try doing the fix!
