My girlfriend bought me a used Lite. Perfect condition except with a mangled game card slot. You saved my Christmas and New Years and plus we got to tinker replacing the slot! You deserve my sub and all the subs in the world!!! ❤️🐨❤️
Thank you!!! I was able to successfully replace the game slot! I greatly appreciate your help. Now my son can finally get back to gaming on his Switch Lite👏🏾👍🏽
THanks... you don't have to put on new paste if the old stuff is still very soft. If it looks crumbly at all, or like "Play-Dough"... then it should be replaced. I've only been noticing it getting hard on the original (early) switches.
I recently replaced my sons joystick and put the everything back together and now I’m having a problem with the game card not reading the games I replaced the game card and I’m still getting the same message. Can it be something else? Please help
Yes... it is always safer to disconnect the battery. But, since the game port is low voltage, and on ribbons... there is almost no chance of an issue. BUT... if you are not careful, you could short the board with tools.
so in another video I watched they said to unplug the battery before you start to remove the broken card reader is that something that needs to be done? and do you need to take out the memory card when replacing the card reader?
I got one of these it reads the card when I put it in then when I go in to the game it loads for a min then goes to a black screen that says can’t read card. And it only does it to like two of the games I have. Have you ever seen that?
I was able to successfully replace my daughters game cartridge with a new one. However, I am still getting the same error with just a few games not all that says “the game card could not be read. Please remove and reinsert it”. Any idea what else could be the issue?
Also - the 3 games not working actually work fine in another switch lite. I noticed damage to the prongs in the switch lite that won’t read the 3 games which is what I thought was the issue so I replaced that. We have 5 games that work fine. Help! :)
My son has a habit of taking the games out and in and now won’t read. Do you have a shop you fix them or let people mail and pay you to fix it? I have hand tremors so trying to do this myself is a no go.
@PghGameFix I have replaced to reader, disabled all the way back down tp the joystick. Put it all back together, everything clipped, new reader... still getting this code.
I have a question from the PlayStation side so my ps4 one night randomly stopped connecting signal with the tv but the controller and console turns on saying their is no signal I’ve tried a different PlayStation and it works I’m trying to get my ps4 to start working
Either the HDMI port has broken in some way.... or the encoder chip has given up. Both are repairable... but depending on what Main board is in your PS4... it may not be a cheap fix. (one of the encoder chips is $50 just for the part !!)
Hello,I have a question, Is it possible that damaging a resister or something other than the card reader cause the switch to not read games. My brother's switch didnt read games after replacing the thermal paste
Hello friend, I use a translator, sorry if I write strangely, were you able to solve the problem? The same thing happens to me, I changed the reader, but the gamecard reading still fails
