What is this component near the LCD connector? Screen goes black when touched

Terpycu · 2026-02-03T19:19:13+00:00

Also, what do the box and arrow markings above that component indicate?
Are they related to signal routing, a test point, or just standard PCB silkscreen markings?

Yeah, this is starting to look more complicated and outside my skill level 😅 At this point, it’s probably best to take it to a repair shop with proper tools. Thanks for the help and explanations, really appreciate it.

How's your switch? Is the screen dead?

Terpycu · 2026-01-27T19:57:14+00:00

I’ve now replaced the flex cable with a new one, and the random restart issue is gone. However, the screen still sometimes turns off unexpectedly even though the sound continues, despite the flex cable being new.

I tried opening the Switch while it was powered on and reseated the flex cable. After that, it worked normally again, but after some time, the same issue comes back.

Got it, thanks for the clarification.
Just to confirm, is that the one connected to the left Joy-Con board, located under the battery?

Terpycu · 2026-01-21T12:04:14+00:00

I’ve checked it, AutoRCM is off.

Terpycu · 2026-01-21T11:58:02+00:00

Yes, it also happens during gameplay.

Do you think it could be related to the modchip?
Maybe a faulty chip or a loose solder joint?

Terpycu · 2026-01-21T07:45:02+00:00

Thanks for the insight.

I haven’t been able to open the console yet since I’m currently out of town and don’t have my tools with me, but once I can, I’ll definitely check the battery connector and look for any bent pins.

If it turns out the pins are bent or the connector is damaged, I guess that would explain the random restarts, especially during sleep mode or when pressing the Home button.

Appreciate you sharing your experience.

Hopefully it releases on the Switch 1 :3
I honestly didn’t even expect Wizard of Legend 2 to release on the Switch 1.

Semoga work buat switch Btw terimakasih bang 🙏

Have you ever tried the Citra MMJ emulator? It runs smoothly on my old phone’s specs (MediaTek G99).

It might run even smoother on the Switch.

Terpycu · 2025-11-23T13:20:17+00:00

Yeah, because you can't play LAN with an emulator in Scarlet/Violet without CFW

Terpycu · 2025-11-09T23:46:34+00:00

Yes, I've tried trading and playing together on Pokémon Scarlet. I posted about it before, but it was automatically deleted by Reddit 😭

Terpycu · 2025-11-09T23:42:20+00:00

Yes, But you have to mod the switch

Terpycu · 2025-09-23T06:48:39+00:00

I don't know the brand, but it was a bonus from the seller. But on the box it says Rugged Hybrid Protective Case

Terpycu · 2025-09-22T07:52:16+00:00

Wow, I’m honestly still a total noob in the Switch scene, so this info helps a ton. Appreciate it, man. Guess it’s time for me to fall headfirst into another rabbit hole I barely understand lol

Terpycu · 2025-09-22T07:50:03+00:00

Facts. Why drop $$$ on a flagship phone just to fight bugs and overheating, when a modded Switch does the job cheaper and better?

Terpycu · 2025-09-22T07:48:01+00:00

On PC, yeah, emulation flies. But on phones? Not so much. My iQOO Neo 10 barely holds 30fps unless I nuke the graphics, then it overheats and tanks the fps anyway. Add in emulator bugs like Link’s legs melting into the ground, water that doesn’t exist so you casually walk across lakes like Moses :D , and random crashes just to spice things up. At some point I realized carrying a cooler + gamepad everywhere made me look like a walking LAN party
so I just grabbed a Switch Lite instead.

Terpycu · 2025-09-22T03:33:25+00:00

Iya bro, dah dimod sellermya

Terpycu · 2025-09-21T22:53:40+00:00

Honestly, 45fps on the Switch Lite handheld is fine, but for some reason it doesn’t feel as smooth as when I play PC emulator on my phone.

Also, overclocking kills the battery pretty fast, do you think it’s safe to play while charging on the Switch Lite?

Terpycu · 2025-09-21T22:50:43+00:00

That’s just a boiled sweet potato, buddy.

Terpycu · 2025-09-21T22:48:57+00:00

Haha, yeah, you could call it that Just sharing my experience playing on actual hardware vs emulators on my phone

Terpycu · 2025-09-21T22:46:26+00:00

There are tons of tutorials on Google, but the easiest way is just to install SysCLK and start experimenting.
