The original Nintendo Switch launched the Joy-Con drift problem on a massive scale. The analogue sticks wear down internally and start sending phantom inputs, your character moves, menus scroll, or the camera drifts without you touching anything. Cleaning the contacts is a temporary measure at best. We replace the stick module entirely, which is the only fix that actually holds. Call for a quote.
If your Switch is not charging, whether from the dock or with a cable plugged directly, the USB-C port on the bottom of the console is usually where the problem lies. The port is used every day and the connector inside can wear or break. We inspect it first before touching the battery, as port faults are far more common than battery failure. Call for a quote.
The Nintendo Switch connects to your TV through the dock, which has an HDMI port built into it. If your Switch works in handheld mode but shows no picture when docked, the dock's HDMI port is the most likely cause. We replace it from £65. Bring the dock in alongside the console and we test the full TV output before handing both back.
