Hey guys, i need some help with my Switch. Early 2023 i installed a modchip by myself. After some trial and error i finally got it to work. In Summer the Switch suddenly refused to boot without a reason. While trying to find the cause and trying to fix it, i accedentaly broke the D/CLK point next to the CPU. I found a guy that fixed it and send it back to me. The Switch worked fine until about two weeks ago. When trying to turn on my Switch, the modchip led was pulsing purple for a few seconds (never seen that before) and then became a static orange.
The first thing i tried was to reset the chip by shorting the two pins. The blue reset light came up, but the switch didn't boot into OFW as it should. Rebooting it, resulted in training (yellow pulsing) for around 10 minutes and a red led before trying again.
I dissasembled it and and saw that the guy who fixed it, also resoldered everything very professionally. I measured every point on the chip and they are as they should (D,A,C ~ 0.700V). I couldn't figure it out so i just tried to "reflow" the DAT0 Adapter with my heat gun. Still didn't boot. Also disconnection every cable from the modchip didn't bring my switch back to life. I let it sit for a few days and tried to boot again, with just screen and battery connected. Suddenly i saw the green light on the chip, turned my switch around and was greeted with a picture. I found it very strange, but decided to reassamble my switch, while booting it up multiple times in the process to make sure it worked. With my switch finally assembled, i was surprised to find out that the same shit is happening as before. I have no clue and hope somebody has an idea whats wrong.
idk if that's normal, but D and A are shorted and have exactly the same diode value. Maybe a short under the emmc?
Thanks
