Title
Nintendo Switch Digitizer Replacement
Introduction
Follow this guide to replace a damaged or faulty digitizer on the Nintendo Switch game console.
'''Note:''' If the screen stopped working, you may just need to replace the LCD panel, rather than the digitizer.
'''Note:''' This procedure requires removing the shield plate. You will need to clean off the old thermal paste from the shield plate and heat sink, and reapply it to the heat sink.
