Hi all,

I've got a Switch Lite on my desk, no modchip, no previous modding attempt that fails to boot with a 2168-0002 error showing up right after the initial Nintendo Switch logo. Occasionally, the speakers will make a short cracking sound right when the error message shows up.

Until now, I've tried entering the recovery menu and unplugging the battery for a few minutes but nothing changes at all. When examining the board, I have found some shorted caps near MAX77620H (particularly the ones circled in red). Could a faulty MAX77620H cause this issue or should I be looking somewhere else?
Actually, is the bottom one actually a capacitor? :D Or am I looking at an inductor? Time to get the boardview up and running.

Thanks!
