yesterday i put my switch in dock to charge and in the morning i take it out and its turned off completely and not into sleep mode also it didint charge is there a chance i was so tired that i have placed it upside down

#

also it was in a bag before i turned it on

#

maybe i accidentally turned it off somehow

Are you sure it was set down all the way? I’ve certainly noticed sometimes it’s a little finicky about setting nicely in the dock. Could be that what happened.

#

That being said, as a fellow putz, a can’t deny the possibility of brain farts.

HOW TO RESET AC ADAPTER

If your console has issue with charging, no power or other power issue:

1. Unplug the AC adapter from the wall sockets and other devices.
2. Wait 30 seconds.
3. Plug the AC adapter back into the wall socket then back to the device you want to charge.

Then plug your AC adapter directly into your Switch

#

not through the dock

#

And then, do this

METHOD TO FIX BOOT ISSUE

If you are experiencing boot issue, your Switch won't turn on, etc.. try this:

  • Make sure the Switch is plugged in directly to the AC adapter.
  • Hold the power button for 15 seconds.
  • At exactly the 15th second, lift your finger briefly then press down once to turn the Switch on.

Oh ok then it's ok

dense trellis
#

i was just suprised why it didint charged and why it was turned off

wide geyser
#

Ah nvm I read that wrong

#

Hmm

dense trellis
#

its okayy

wide geyser
#

Now does it charge?

dense trellis
#

yess

wide geyser
#

I see... kinda strange though

dense trellis
#

i probably was tired while studying and put the switch upside down

wide geyser
#

just in case, do the AC adapter reset steps

#

Because there has been some cases like this before, and eh the result isn't good

#

So I was a bit concerned

dense trellis
#

result isnt good?

#

wdym

#

Make sure you have your Switch's AC adapter plugged through a surge protector, yeah?

#

Well, Switch stopped charging, turn off on dock, everything sounds normal

#

and in those cases, their Switch was bricked

#

can't turn on at all, no matter how much we tried

#

But your case isn't like that though, so no worries there

dense trellis
#

ohh

wide geyser
#

Just precaution on my part

dense trellis
#

okayy

#

ye imma reset the ac adapter

#

just in case

wide geyser
#

I suspect those other cases were caused by an electrical fluctuation, maybe thudner-strike, which somehow so strong it bypassed the AC adapter or any surge protector they used

#

oh

#
