Hi there

I tried to replace the usbc connector of an old switch lite. Im not so good in hot air soldering and so i think i damaged something on the board.
D+, D- and CC lines are OL now

Maybe somebody had the same issue and knows what component I could have broken?

Presuming you correctly fixed the USB port and there are no floating pins,the next suspects are the filters :

They should have continuity. I don't know where the filters are for the CC lines.
The Lite does not have a P13USB chip and I read that the USB signals just go straight to the APU/CPU.
This might also give you different reading compared to other Switch models.


On another forum someone mentions that all those IO lines were damaged on the APU on the device he got in for repairs.
Another person mentions that everything just works, even with those 0L readings.

Hey thank you for your reply.
I figured it out. The problem is the connector. If the plug is not alligned perfectly I get these OL-readings. I think its poor quality.
