Hi there, I bought a broken used Nintendo Switch for just 40€.
It's an unpatched console that still boots payloads and goes into RCM mode just fine.
When I put it in the original dock the LED blinks once and then the Switch starts to charge but the screen stays on. The same happens when I plug in the original charger directly into the Switch.
I believe the WiFi chip might be broken.
Is anyone familiar with this?
Edit 1: I can boot Hekate and it shows 11.5% Battery, 3661mV with the original charger connected it says around 1180-1189 mA charge.
It has 11 burnt fuses.
Edit 2: it indeed is the WiFi/Bluetooth chip, it won't turn on when I run Android.
Can a moderator rename this thread to "Nintendo Switch broken WiFi chip BCM4356" please?
