Hey Guys,
I've got a broken Switch from a friend that was completly dead, even the "repair service" wasn't able to get it back to life. So I decided to give it a lookup...
After opening the console the first thing I noticed was that there are some screws are missing, no big deal but that was a safe sign that it wasn`t the a official repair.
Digging deeper the full extent of the "repair" went vissible, the USB C port was literally fried, the plastic of the port was almost completly melted.
Today I received a spare port and I think the soldering went well, but here comes my first question:
Is there any way to verify that the inner pins are soldered properly?
Sadly the port seems to be not the only broken part, there are now 5V on the testpoint near it but there is still no charge or a USB connection to my notebook (even in RCM nothing is discovered).
The next thing I was checking was the M92T36
PIN 5: 3.3V
PIN 6 without charger: 3.3V
PIN 6 with charger: 3.3V
This seems OK to me but I guess the voltage on pin 6 should be higher when the charger is connected.
I hooked up the battery to a TP4056 and let it charge for a while, the switch turns on and works fine, there are noticeable faults.
So what are the next steps I should do?
Do you guys have any recommendations for me?
Regards Lukas
