Switch Still Not Turning On After Replacing Battery

I recently replaced the Battery to my OLED, and it still isn't powering on after several hours of charging on different cords and plugs. I suspect it's the charging port itself, because the joycons are also not charging, meaning the battery is still dead. Do I need to look for a repair shop, or is there a way to change the port myself? I see there are screws holding the port in place, but I doubt it just bolts in.

Answer this question I have this problem too

Hi Andrew!

It could be a bad battery, could also be a bad USB-C port or some IC on the motherboard!

Replacing the USB-C port requires soldering. Do you have any experience with soldering? If not, then it may be for the best to let it be replaced by a repair shop!
