Frequently asked questions
Why does my Switch work handheld but not on TV?
TV output depends on the dock and the console’s USB-C port; a fault in either causes a black TV while handheld still works, and both are testable.
Is it the dock or the console?
We isolate it by testing each part, since a bad dock HDMI chip and a worn console port produce the same no-TV symptom.
Can a power surge kill the dock?
Yes, surges can take out the dock’s output circuitry, which is one of the things we check.
