It used to run perfectly, a broken top screen, today i received the replacement, i fixed it, then kept trying everything, wifi cams mic and all buttons, i even played super street fighters , no issues at all, then it started turning off with a sound like a shock from the speakers, exactly when i press ZL and only ZL, i kept trying, no problems at all :/,
top screen is perfect, same with touch and all other functions, help !?

My suggestion would be to first open it back up, and see if the connection to the ZL button is dirty and/or connected properly. You may just need to blow out some dirt or other things causing a short. Or it could be a faulty connection with the ribbon. Either way by opening back up you can get a better picture of what's going on, and see how to fix it.

It come from a connector on the motherboard (circled in red on the picture)



The connector was bent a bit during disassembly so the cable didn't fit properly.
Because of the location of the connector(the button touches the ribbon cable), every time I pressed ZL the connector moved and caused a short circuit that caused the console to shut down.

I removed the ribbon cable and pressed on the connector which was a little bent outwards then I reinserted the ribbon cable.

Now I can press ZL without turning off the console and everything works.

Hope this will help other people

    Again you get what you pay for, its like buying a S series for $300 but its only 1440p native, if you want true 4k, gotta get the X model for $500. But yea you right, when moms buying it anyways, you gotta stay cheap.

    They could use HD out on their TV no real need for a monitor these days tbh the purists will disagree
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I'm kind of phasing out on the need for wanting all these consoles cool to have but they just become dust build ups
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I here ya there, I have too many myself, and have hard time letting them go, since most of mine I've modded at some point. Anymore I just play Switch on the go, seriesx at home.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I'm designing my own entertainment cabinet for my man cave, to store all my systems, then I'm also designing a power supply/HDMI switcher so I can switch to whichever system I want, and power it also. Already picked up the cabinet board, but tinkering with my drawings before start
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    But yea, I have frogger arcade cabinet that I gutted and put a Pi4 then Pi5 into, but it never gets played much anymore, should sell it. Even when the kids come over, they don't want to play on it, just the xbox. TMNT and Simpson's arcade is still so fun on it, esp w 2 players.
