Hi!

Is your Switch 2 out of warranty? If not, get it fixed by Nintendo.

You can buy them here if there is no warranty on it: https://a.aliexpress.com/_EwhcKtY

Replacing it won’t be easy as soldering is required. This is new for the Switch 2.. For the Switch 1 you could just replace it easily.

If you don’t have soldering experience and the equipment, I recommend to ask a local repair shop.
