Opened the console up, removed the heat shield and it’s a complete mess inside...

Burnt traces fixed with wires and enamel, thermal paste everywhere...

guessing it’s hardware issue now

oh well

Trinket install?

Also it's good the PC is reconising it. I'm suspect of a prodinfo now
Couldn’t see the trinket, though I’ve never seen one installed before

also another interesting I found, the serial number in hekate cal0 is different to the sticker on the console, looks like someone may have changed the mb

Can you send me a photo of the board and what they have done, and if it is a swapped board that would explain why it gets stuck at the nintendo screen, and as such, should be fixable

when I say fixable I mean working but no online - and it doesn't take too long, the longest part is verifying all information prior to make sure it has a proper diagnosis but up to you man :)
