Switch lite HWFly install but 3.3V is missing (on board?)

[Daroxx]

Hey folks,

so I got a switch lite and tried to install the HFWLY lite modchip on it. But the chip doesn't do anything at all.
After some research and diode mode checking I found the missing 3.3V which whould be present on the CAP in the picture.

The switch itself works fine. Can anyone confirm that the chip is getting it's 3.3v from that spot?

did you find a fix?

Use a different pin. Iirc it has been discussed that the 3.3v from a filtering capacitor near sd card slot would get interrupted when hekate loads and cause issues with modchip. Use the one shown in sthetix's diagram here:

thanks but I found this already and was looking for a fix, not a workaround, I don't if it's the cap that not working or works but I the switch locks up when I put an sd card in the slot
