Did you crack your Switch screen, or has it stopped turning on? A nintendo switch repair can bring it back, usually for far less than a new console. We fix cracked and broken screens, Switches that will not turn on, dead docks, charging faults, and more, on the Switch, the Switch OLED, and the Switch Lite. We also handle the screen repairs that go wrong when people try them at home, so if you have already had a go, bring it in and we will sort it. The diagnosis is free, so you find out exactly what is wrong and what it costs first. Note that for drifting Joy-Cons, see our Switch controller page. We also repair Xbox and PlayStation consoles.
A cracked or broken Switch screen is the most common repair we do, and it is very fixable. Whether the glass is cracked, the picture has black blotches, or the screen is totally dead, we replace it and make your Switch look new again.
If you tried a do-it-yourself screen replacement and now nothing works, you are not alone, and we can usually fix it. The most common DIY mistake is tearing the LCD ribbon, and it is so common that thousands of people search how to repair it every month.
If your Switch will not turn on, will not charge, or seems completely dead, do not give up on it. A nintendo switch repair can revive many "dead" consoles, since the fault is usually fixable and your games and save data are almost always still safe inside.
A worn charging port, a drained or failed battery, a blown part on the board, or a software hang can all make a Switch look dead. The free check tells you which one it is. A surprising number of dead-seeming Switches come back to life with an affordable repair. If the battery is the cause, see our Nintendo Switch battery replacement service.
If your Switch only charges when you wiggle the cable, or not at all, the USB-C charging port may be worn or full of lint. We clean or replace the port so it charges firmly again.
If your Switch will not show on the TV, the problem is often the dock, not the Switch itself. The dock is the stand that connects your Switch to the television. We repair docks that have stopped sending video.
A dock can fail from a worn cable, a bad port, or a fault inside. Before anything, we check whether it is the dock or the Switch causing the no-video problem, so you only fix what is actually broken. Often a dock repair is cheaper than you expect.
We repair the Switch Lite too, the smaller handheld-only Switch. Because the Lite has everything built into one piece, including the screen and the controls, its repairs are a little different, but we handle them all.
If your problem is a drifting Joy-Con or a Pro Controller, that is a controller repair, and we have a dedicated page for it. The controllers are separate from the console body covered here.
For Joy-Con drift, dead buttons, or Pro Controller faults, see our Nintendo Switch controller repair service, which also explains how to check Nintendo's free Joy-Con repair option. This page is for the console itself, the screen, dock, charging, and power.
Many people search whether a broken Switch is worth fixing or only good for parts. The honest answer is that most Switches are well worth repairing, but we will always tell you the truth for your exact unit.
The price depends on the repair, but it is almost always far less than a new console. The diagnosis is free, and you approve the cost before any work. Here is a general guide.

No. A screen, port, or dock repair does not touch your games or save data. Everything is stored on the console's memory and your microSD card, separate from the parts we repair. Your Switch comes back just as you left it, fixed. If you are ever worried about losing files on any device, see our data recovery page.
The Switch 2 is Nintendo's newest console. If your Switch 2 has a problem, bring it in and we will help where we can, as repair parts for the newest hardware become available. Most of the repairs on this page are for the original Switch, Switch OLED, and Switch Lite, which are the consoles we see most.
Most Nintendo Switch repairs are done the same day or the next, and your games and saves stay safe the whole time.
Can you fix a cracked Nintendo Switch screen?
Yes, it is our most common Switch repair. Whether the glass is cracked, the picture has black spots, or the screen is dead, we fit a new screen for your exact model, including the Switch, Switch OLED, and Switch Lite. Your games and saves stay safe, since they are stored on the console, not the screen.
I tore the LCD ribbon trying to replace my Switch screen. Can you fix it?
Yes. Tearing the thin LCD ribbon cable is the most common DIY Switch screen mistake, which is why so many people search how to fix it. A torn ribbon cannot just be glued back, so we fit a new screen with its ribbon intact, seated correctly, and get your Switch working again. Bring it in for a free check.
My Nintendo Switch won't turn on. Is it dead?
Probably not. A worn charging port, a failed battery, a board fault, or a software hang can all make a Switch seem dead, and most are fixable. Your games and saves are almost always still safe inside. Our free check finds the real cause, and many dead-seeming Switches come back to life affordably. If the battery is the issue, see our Switch battery replacement service.
How much does Nintendo Switch repair cost?
The diagnosis is free. A cracked screen replacement runs $89 to $169, charging port repair $59 to $99, a won't-turn-on or board repair $79 to $179, and a dock repair $39 to $89. A new Switch is $200 to $350, so most repairs save you a lot. You approve the price before any work. Get a free quote or call (703) 594-9339.
My Switch won't show on the TV. Is it the dock?
Often, yes. If the handheld screen works but the TV shows nothing, the dock is usually the problem, not the Switch. We check whether it is the dock or the console first, then repair the dock that has stopped sending video. A dock repair is often cheaper than people expect.
Do you repair the Switch Lite?
Yes. The Switch Lite has its screen, sticks, and buttons all built into one unit, so its repairs are internal. We fix cracked Lite screens, drifting built-in sticks, charging ports, and buttons. It costs a little more than a simple Joy-Con swap because we open the unit, but it brings your Lite back to normal.
Is my broken Switch worth repairing or only good for parts?
Most are well worth repairing. A new Switch is $200 to $350, while most repairs are a small fraction of that. Selling for parts only makes sense if a Switch has several big faults at once, where the repair cost climbs near the price of a used one. At the free check, we give you an honest price and opinion so you can decide.
My Joy-Cons are drifting. Is that covered here?
That is a controller repair, and we have a dedicated page for it. For Joy-Con drift, dead buttons, or Pro Controller faults, see our Nintendo Switch controller repair service, which also covers how to check Nintendo's free Joy-Con repair option. This page is for the console body, the screen, dock, charging, and power.
Do not buy a new console over a cracked screen or a Switch that will not turn on. Our nintendo switch repair service fixes screens, charging ports, docks, and power faults on the Switch, Switch OLED, and Switch Lite, usually for far less than a new one, and your games and saves stay safe. Even DIY screen jobs gone wrong, we can fix. Call (703) 594-9339, request a quote, or contact us to bring your Switch in for a free check today. 30-day warranty on every repair. Trusted by 443+ reviewers since 2013.
