    Need Help Finding Nintendo Switch LCD FPC Connector Replacement

    Got a Nintendo Switch LCD FPC connector that is damaged and I need to find a compatible replacement from mouser, digikey, or something like that.

    I have attached a picture of the FPC connector that I need and here is a link to a high-res picture of the whole motherboard.

    Thanks!

    The connector you are looking for is a Molex 503300-5310.

    Widely available on eBay but can be sourced via AliExpress for less if you've got more time.

    Remember to use hot air from below when replacing and ensure your board is properly pre-heated first. Will take a lot of heat because of the high temp lead-free solder used.

    Good luck!

      How did you find out what type of connector that is? Is there a list you went through or something? I'm curious because I want to source other connectors like that and I don't want to bother someone on a forum every time I need to find one connector.

        Count the number of pins and measure the pitch between the centre of two pins.

          No LCD image after connector replacement – lifted components and damaged resistor (Nintendo Switch Lite HDH-CPU-02)
          by Tomylee
          Hi everyone,

          Sorry for the person who’s going to read all this !
          I'm on a Nintendo Switch Lite, motherboard HDH-CPU-02.

          While replacing the left joystick, I had to remove the motherboard to access the connector underneath. When I lifted the LCD connector latch, it broke (the plastic had become brittle over time), so I replaced the entire connector.

          During the desoldering of the LCD connector using hot air, three small components located just below the connector (likely 0402 capacitors) came off and remained stuck to the bottom of the...

          NEC TurboExpress On/Off Power Switch Replacement Help
          by grimacelord
          Hello,

          I've been working on a NEC TurboExpress and I accidentally got the plastic inside the power ON/OFF switch too hot while doing other repairs and melted it. At first, it would still power on when sliding the switch, but you had to really press inward while sliding to get it to work.

          I removed the switch component and tried to gently melt the plastic back so it would work more reliably and all I managed to do was make it worse.

          I need to find a replacement On/OFF switch for this, but having some trouble figuring out which kind of switch I need....

          Nintendo Switch HAC-001 LCD connector
          by trepachka
          If I removed the LCD connector while the battery is still plugged in, did this damage the logic board like it would a laptop? This is my first time working on one and not only did I forget to unplug the battery when removing the logic board but after I replaced the USB-C port, I broke the clip that keeps the LCD connector snug to the logic board.

          I can replace the LCD connector if I knew the logic board was ok. I secured the LCD connector with a piece of Kapton tape. The console is charging but when power button is pressed, I only get backlight. So, I don't know where the logic...

          Vizio e601i-A3 - Has Sound and Display, But No Backlight - Bad Power Supply Board or Bad LED Bulbs ?
          by Tynan Dill
          I was given this TV from my great uncle. He said it just wouldn't turn on one day out of nowhere, replaced the TV, and gave it to me to possibly fix and use for myself.

          Upon bringing it home and plugging it up, it showed a standby light.

          I powered it on and without a flashlight, the display showed the "V" but the lighting is very dim, but visible.

          The screen seems to blackout and stay black, but with a flashlight I can see the display.

          With my Playstation 4 connected via HDMI, and running a game I can hear sound.

          Assuming...
