I have an issue trying to charge my left joycon. I let it drain down to about 30% power and when I try to charge it back up it stops at a certain point and never gets full. Can someone help me out here?

try going to settings, then controllers and sensors, then disconnect controllers, hold the x button down to disconnect the controllers and then turn your nintendo switch off completely then turn it back on and reconnect your joycons

mine doesn't disconnect controllers. it has no x button option to do this. it only allows me to connect controllers by hitting the L and R buttons and press B to go back. nothing else. and my switch doesn't turn off. it only has sleep mode.

HOW TO DELETE & RECONNECT CONTROLLER PAIRING

§ This is a method to reset controllers pairing information and can fix various controllers' connection issues. If you do not have a functional right Joy-con, you can use a different controller such as a Pro controller.

※ With the Switch console in handheld mode.
1. Detach/Disconnect all the Joy-Con and controllers from the Nintendo Switch console.
2. From the HOME Menu, select System Settings ⚙️ > Controllers and Sensors > Disconnect Controllers.
3. Hold down the “X” Button on the right Joy-Con until the blue circle is fully illuminated.
4. Attach or connect any Joy-con and controllers you want to pair to the console.

※ Update the controllers' firmware can fix several issues.

I see, didn't know I had to go into system settings to do it I thought it was in the controller menu. thanks. it seems to have worked. funny thing was when the joycons were used in wireless mode the battery was full and it worked just fine showing the life of the battery, it was only when I docked the joycons that it gave the false half full icon.

after you do these steps, pair the controller back

#

and then restart your Switch

No, slot them into the console to pair them back

No worry about it. Leave it as that
