Nintendo Switch Charging Port Repair

Is your Nintendo Switch not taking a charge or connecting to your computer the way it should? Sounds like you might be in need of our Nintendo Switch charge port repair service.

After taking a look at the usb-c port on this damaged switch console we have determined the fault in the port to be a bent pin causing the charging and connection issues as outlined below.

After removing the switch usb c port with a hot air station we are left with some pads below the port that need cleaning and tinning of some new fresh solder.

After a new port has been installed it is necessary to solder the back row of pins since this port uses 2 rows of contacts for data communication.
