    When I removed my left joycon from the switch, it would act like it had never seen a switch console before in it's life and not even try to connect. Doing the disconnect control feature featured in this video fixed this issue which I have had for a long time. Thank you!

    You're a genius!! I tried what I thought was everything to get the left joy con to reconnect and nothing was working. Was going to buy a new one today and saw your video as a last effort. YOUR SECOND METHOD TOTALLY WORKED!! Thank you so much!!

    FYI I had an issue where the left Joy Con kept disconnecting during handheld... tried different joy-cons and realized it was the left rail on the tablet itself that was not working correctly. Had to buy a replacement rail to fix it. Relatively easy fix and there are some videos online on how to do it.

  • @afro-sisco9751
    @afro-sisco9751 3 года назад +6

    The 3 ways to fix your joycon.
    Step 1: Restart your joycon and pair it 2 times and then sleep on it.
    Step 2: Blow compressed air on the connector and port like it's an old gameboy.
    Step 3: If you still have a warranty.
    Ok so with the first step my controller won't connect because the controller is dead. On step 2 the controller still makes that click sound when I put it back in and the 3rd step DON'T YOU THINK I WOULD HAVE ALREADY ASKED FOR A REPLACEMENT BY A WARRANTY IN THE FIRST PLACE!

    Only correction for you: you need to hold the compressed gas level otherwise liquid dribbles out (as you saw). Hold the can level (like it's sitting on a table), and move the Switch around.
