Hi, I can't find much on this error other then I don't think I've seen a fix.
The console starts works for 30sec - 1 min then error message comes on. Only option is turn it off and on.
Anyone got any ideas on what I could try?
Thanks
 
Afaik it's a data corruption error.
Some people mention a factory reset but most people end up sending their Switch back to Nintendo.
It's unclear whether replacing the NAND itself will fix it as some people mention that it might also be related to the DRAM memory.
If it happens during playing a game, just delete the game and reinstall it in the hope that the Switch marks the bad NAND memory.
 
Thanks for the reply, unfortunately it freezes after around 30 seconds so can't set it up any further to do any more tests /updates.
I ended up sending to Nintendo but £150 to repair obviously not worth it.
Will send to ebay!

yeah, same error here, got it while playing minecraft for some reason, playing a map called the mountain, (based off a book, saying whatap it is to see if anyone might know that it might’ve been the map) and it gave me that error and now, when i turn it on, its rare it turns on, tried all the shortcuts for a frozen switch or unresponsive switch that won’t turn on, sometimes it works, most times it doesn’t. i see no physical damage, but i have a feeling it’s something to do with software, so i updated it to the latest version as of july 2024, still got the error, can’t even play games on it without it giving me that error. i’m thinking my switch’s software is corrupted and/or damaged, based off of what you said, also, i tried initializing it, but when it said ‘don’t press the power button’, while getting ready to initialize, with the loading bar and the loading circle next to it, it gave me 2002-3580, and now it won’t turn on at all. joy-cons still work however. i’m thinking i might have to unscrew it, open it up, and see if anything is either disconnected, or needs a replacement. any tips or information you might know about this?

by the way, i had deleted every single game and it still does that. i also deleted their data.
