It’s actually not that bad and most things are just plug in and if something is actually broken it will most likely just need some light soldering depending on what it is
Our Switch has had this black screen for months. When you touch the screen, you can hear touch sounds along with pushing any of the physical buttons on the Joy Cons. I was about to accept Nintendo's Repair Acknowledgement when my gut told me to go back and try to search for an answer one more time. Thats when I came across your video. After you got the back opened showing the battery connector and the display ribbon cable a bulb went off in my head! I haven't opened mine up yet, but I'd bet the $100 I was about to pay Nintendo that the ribbon cable is what's giving me the issue!!!!! Somehow, one of my daughters knocked it or dropped it right causing it to lose connection! Thank you so much for making this video!!!! I'll come back and edit this after I get it opened.
Well done Mike. Looks like the backlight wasn't working, and that connector with the corrosion nearby feeds the right hand board which has the backlight connector on it. Maybe by taking out the ribbon cable it cleaned the corrosion away. Good job 👍👍👍
I didn’t know that was the back light ribbon, makes perfect sense now. Couldn’t see how that corrosion had happened, as in such a weird place, not where you’d expect water Ingres, but not complaining, after the currently on pause gameboy Color repair, I needed an easy one 😂 Thanks for the kind words and hope you’re doing good, I saw you were still having “fun” with the Roller 😆
@@1up_Gaming 😂 That Roller is taking up all my time and all my bank balance! I'm looking forward to the day when I am half way through it. Everything I look at is broken😂👍
@@Mymatevince I'm looking forward to the day you can take it out for a spin, it's certainly looking like a love / hate relationship so far, the car loves all your cash being spent on it, and the bank hates it :p
Thank you so much!! I just upgraded to the gulikit joycon left and right and black screened after putting all the parts together. I tried your method of replugging the cable for the screen and it worked like a charm 😊
I have the same problem but not the corrosion. Doesn't look like you really did anything except take the ribbon out and reinsert it. I tried that and my problem is still consisting. Is there anything else you did we missed. Same exact problem with black screen and sound. I've cleaned it and reapplied the ribbons but still no luck for me.
@@tylersmith1412eah he most likely replaced that whole ribbon I think that’s un genuine to lie about that. I’m so frustrated with both my kids switched they were both dropped and make noise and you can hear games start up but you can’t see anything. He shouldn’t lead people on like that
I had this issue after replacing my battery definitely make sure those two connections by the battery are really in there and connect and then also trying the hard reset twenty second hood on the power button
Are they any other ways Bc my switch makes nose when i move the joystick but has a black scream and are they anyother ways to fix it with out removing the case
@@jacquelineasumani7175 I don’t think so, not without removing the back. Getting the back off is quite easy, but if the screen needs replacing that’s a whole different story 😪
Those who don’t got a mat like him are more likely to mess up or lose a screw I lost the screen shop membrane. My girlfriend found it downstairs almost had to spend 12. 99 for a full set.😅
Jammy bugger. How come I get all the hard / impossible fixes? I have a genuine faulty one of these, with corrosion and everything. I opended it up, took one look, nope, then put it back together.

@@haleyedwards4253 what’s the point of that? I’ve got plenty of spare screens to replace it with if that were the case, and that would’ve made for a better and deeper video.

Hi mines is doing the same thing I took the back off but can’t get the metal part off with my tiny tools I can hear clicking and I tap the screen but no light ughhhh help me please

Well now it won't do anything, noise and all. I did nothing differently.
at that point i think it would be something wrong with the battery or sonething all the way under the switch

what did he do exactly?
unplug the battery connecter thing then you have to leave it for 20 minutes and plug it back in after it should work

If you still have it, you might want to wait till the new oled screen mod comes out and replace it with that
This isn’t working I’ve tried everything. You had to have replaced that ribbon

What spray is he using
99% isopropyl alcohol, it’s in a decanted bottle
