@Julio V. hey! I have the same issue. But I wasn't aware of this because i bought it used and I tried it out they were working fine, it did keep telling me to push in the right joycon because it wasn't completely in i guess but it was charging and it worked fine so i thought it was maybe the control or it was dirty on the slider so i ignored it thinking if anything ill just buy new ones. So I wanted to factory reset the device and once I turned it on it asked me to slide both controls in and like the one the video. And I'm stuck on that screen! Where can I buy that part and the name of that part?
I just realized my rail was broken and one quick search and you've got a perfectly clear demonstration of how to fix it And a link to the part!!! Your the best. Thank you so much!!!
Hi! Great video man, My switch has this problem, but the rigth joycon Charge in portable mode but it is not sync in that mode, i can use the rigth joycon but in wireless mode. What can i do? i already change that part once.
What If You Wiped Out All Of Your Data On Your Switch And Yours Joy cons Are Broken/Don’t Work At All But Still Wiped The Data Like Nothing, Then What?
@@JoseMoralestechcan u not get off that screen if u don’t want to use them and u want to use a controller that connects do you have to connect then first ?
So a friend of a friend said they could fix it and long story short they destroyed they receiving end. The teeth are all bent like they forced it? Is their a way to fix it that or should I just buy a whole new switch?
Try another joycon. Borrow a friend's for like 5 seconds and slap it on your switch. If it doesn't work, then its the rail. If it does work, then you just need another joycon.
can you pls help me for only a little bit? my right joycon is not being read by the switch (whether it's inserted in the switch body or not) i dont have tools to open the switch as of the moment but i was able to peek and see the contact points of the railing and the right joycon, and i can see that it has missing some of the "teeth" in the contact points, both the one from the railing and the one from the joycon. should i replace the railing and the joycon?
Hey, my Switch won't recognize any Joycon since this afternoon. It happened out of the sudden but for both sides. I was at the eshop, left the Switch running for some time and when I got back to it, the Joycons weren't working anymore. As it happened to both sides at the same time I am afraid something more major is broken. Maybe something overheated? What's your opinion?
Great video, ive been dealing with the left side of my joycon busted for months now. Sent it in to nintendo to fix, the left worked for like a week and they wiped all my save data. This worked perfectly and it took me maybe 30 minutes max
Just curious, but I did this and it still wasn't working on the right side. Tried multiple controllers as well. Could the board have an issue or any other ideas?
any kind of help here? i just change my rail and the controller is only charging and conect by bluethoot, but seems like the problem is not with controller or rail, any solutions?

The right joycon rail in my switch has a torn ribbon cable & like a fool I factory reset the device. Is there a way to setup the switch without repairing the rail?
Hello Where are you from. As I'm having issues on my right joycon. It works perfectly but the problem is the bottom on the edge of the console has stopped working. The button on the back both work fine but the small button on the edge work perfect on the left side. I play snimal crossing new horizons and the button on the left edge which you can switch clothes to clean you home and the right side button was to bring up a key pad to talk to friend who are playing their acnh game. I don't know why it's stopped please anyone help as I would love to fix this one as I can't afford £330 for a new one. I'm not tech savvy. Is it a easy fix or hard. Anyone ? I live in uk not America. Any help would be very appreciated thank you xx
Hi , I know is been long time sims you commented but you can actually just replace one joy con complete it may costo like $40 or less , also you can replace or most likely cleans the internal , gets dirty and don’t make good contact sometimes
Tbh I'm jst trying to fix my controller bc its dead it won't charge and won't connect so when u pit it in it jst denies that it's their and I've tried multiple methods but it just won't work can you help me
My left one keeps showing the animation of removing, but then I have to fully remove & put it back.. it works again, but it keeps doing it.. so is this the way to fix my issue??
I replaced the rail and it still doesn't work. Joycon works on my other switch. With the old rail and new rail it does not register it, but charges it still.
Really useful but.. I have different problem with one of two joycon controller. Is connected normal it is play games normal. But... While charging suddenly not charging and stop in process of changing and is still charging. Do you know what is going on? Thank you
Hey I got a question mine Nintendo switch is like that too but it’s my left side and I took the back off and I seen what was wrong with it that little piece where I wire slide in is broken could you help me to figure out what I need to fix it
I replaced my left rail, still won’t read as connected to the console but will charge and recognize it as if I’m playing with them off… not sure what to do.
I bought an unpatched switch recently on eBay. to modify it , also bought a set of cheap 3rd party joycons for $ 35 . I powered it on a few days ago when I received it . It goes directly to the joycon connection screen , and the right joycon is really tough to slide on , you almost have to force it , which I don't wanna do ! could it be the cheap Joycons ? or maybe the Tablet ? This Sucks !!!!! haha Can someone please throw some suggestions my way Please ..... The Ebay seller I think gives a 30 day refund but if It's just the Joycons
I’m so stupid, please before you take apart your switch and purchase everything. Try borrowing someone’s JoyCon or use another you have. I did all of these steps just to find out my cords were perfect. Went in GameStop earlier and bought a new pre owned right JoyCon and it instantly worked. I guess I’ll keep this in mind for future reference. It was odd because the previous JoyCon didn’t have any physical damage so I believed it was my Switch itself. God those screws are so small and it took forever to take apart and put back together. Fucking Nintendo.
Hey there so I have a question. I got a switch that apparently the area where the ribbon cables connects to on the motherboard has been crushed. So the little lever that you open and close to lock the ribbon cables is completely gone and some of the wires of that component are sticking out. Is that fixable at all?
Can someone help me my controllers deplated and i pressed the black button but nothing is working all my controllers are ded and when i press the black small button it still doesn’t work
yo, you forgot to mention the two side screws in the middle of the rails before you take off the back panel. make sure you don leave stuff like that out so other people dont break their switches like i just did. -
I'm so mad I bought a whole other Joyjon and all I needed to do was clean the joycons connected side

I'm gonna try this , I feel confident going through with it because of you 💪
Honestly I feel the same way because of him
Oh, thank you! I’ll try and do this. This is what has been happening to me. I’m ordering a new rail.

Is there a way
This man wants us to become engineers while we don’t even have the materials
Lmao ur so extreme

Is it possible to reattach the connections to the rails without replaceing the rails themselves?
Yes but is you won’t save much money, so is better just to replace it in full

something wrong with the joycon itself

What about if I only have the other kind of controllers
this needs to be fix before you can use the other one
My left rail is doing this but not as bad. Sometimes it will connect sometimes it won't. Pretty annoying
What do you do if your missing one of your joycons
My switch is brand new and this happened, did I not set it up properly?
Both of my joycons arent connecting. Do you think it's the same thing or a board issue?

My ribbon wasn’t ripped though
It can be the controller side rail connection
I will be trying this tomorrow wish me luck hahah
Good luck 😁
