Is there any way to test if the HWFLY modchip works/powers on without having to wire the entire chip up? I messed up my first install (no lights on modchip, no boot on console) and am gonna attempt on a 2nd Switch OLED, but I don't want to go through the hassle of all the wiring just to have a dud.

Thanks in advance for any input and happy holidays! :D

plug in the USB adapter to the computer, the green light should turn on. I personally have not encountered any dead modchip yet. *Touch wood*

good luck on the install and happy holidays

Plugged it in and got green light :) thanks, and you too!
 
Look for sthetix' guide, best there is. Should be even easier for you since you have the very latest revision which makes the CPU points no longer in need of running wires.

The new mod chip has a few differences to the SX Lite
It looks potentially smaller than the SX/HWFLY and there is 1 less connection port.
Looks like there is more space to solder on to the HWFLY OLED board.
Also a bit cheaper for the HWFLY OLED @ $90 VS HWFLY SX Lite @ $156
