Hardware Dock Flickering Issues.

[Awesomekid956000]

So I bought my switch around the beginning of the month, worked great and no problems. But one day my switch dock doesn't work right, it now flickers in and out while the picture continuously moves downwards. Idk how it happened but I pulled my switch out the dock, unplugged it, changed HDMI cords, and they didn't change it. So just to be safe I tried to charge my switch out of the dock. It charges fine. However I need help figuring out if this is a switch tablet problem, or a dock problem. The tablet itself hasn't had any problems, but if it is a dock problem, I still wanna know if 3rd party docks are still a problem, because I really don't feel like shelling out another $80 on a first party docks that wasn't my fault. Sorry for the long message, but if anyone could help, I'd appreciate it.

Did you buy it new or used ?

if your willing to shell out 50$ for a dock with no charger, check out skull & co jumpgate.

if you bought it new at some where like walmart or gamestop you can still exchange it

Oh, sorry, i forgot to mention i bought it used from gamestop. I'm also really sorry for wasting y'alls time. I figured out that something is up with my tv, not my dock. I plugged my dock to another tv and it worked fine. Thanks for the help though

if it messes up again , gamestop will exchange up to 30 days on used consoles

I would find it more likely to be a problem with the dock rather than the tablet itself. I am pretty sure there are third party docks that are safe to be used with the Nintendo Switch that are rather cheap, you should try that. If it isn't the problem, you can return it to wherever you bought it from.
