Nintendo Switch Lite no power, wont charge

[Justinloos1985]

I have a Nintendo Switch Lite. Model HDH-001 (input 15 v - 2.6 A).

Issue: No power/ Not charging.

There was no known incident causing the problem. No water damage seen upon open device. No observable issues on components, battery not bulged, charging port pins look intact. Utilizing a known good Nintendo switch charger, no charging or power occurs.


Digital tester that goes between the charger port and the charging cable reads (5v 0.04 A).


Testing the 3.8 v battery disconnected it has zero voltage. Testing the 3.8 v battery connected reads zero voltage. Testing the 3.8 volt battery contacted with the charging cable connected reads zero voltage.

Other things I’ve tried:

• Clean charging port with %99 IPA
• Try weird power button vol combinations to reset device.
• Battery completely dead 0 volts

Test for shorts

• M92T36 (no shorts on the caps)
• BQ chip next to the M92 (No shorts on the surrounding caps)

I installed a new battery. Battery powered the switch ON but gives error code 2134-0501

Any thoughts or recommendations?

I’m thinking about replacing the charging port next.

Have you tried charging the good battery?
