Nintendo Switch No Video Out

Before we dive into the troubleshooting steps, make sure you’ve checked the basics. Ensure that your Switch is properly connected to the dock, and the dock is connected to a power source. If you’ve recently moved your dock or disconnected power, try reconnecting everything in the correct sequence.

Incorrect Display Settings

Although the Switch usually outputs correctly without any additional configuration, it’s possible that the display settings have been changed unintentionally. Check your Switch’s display settings to ensure that they are set to output to the correct display.

Dock Connected Incorrectly

It may sound silly, but the dock can be finicky about the order in which things are connected. If you’ve recently moved your dock or disconnected power, try reconnecting everything in the correct sequence. You should see a solid green light on the dock indicating that the Switch is detected and outputting video.

Bad Connection Between the Dock and Display

Your issue may not be related to your Switch at all. There are many parts of the communication chain between your Switch and the connected display. You’ll need to test all of them to isolate the issue. Try using a different HDMI cable or display to rule out any issues with your current setup.

Faulty Dock

Once you’ve determined your display and cable function properly, it’s time to test the final link before getting to the Switch itself. The dock contains two points of connection that are important for the transmission of video signals. If you suspect that your dock is faulty, you may need to replace it.

Faulty Charge Port

The USB-C port on the bottom of the Switch serves a dual purpose. It acts as both the charge port and the interface for video output. Just because one function works properly does not guarantee the other does. Try cleaning the port with a dust blower or replacing it if necessary.

Faulty Motherboard

The motherboard is the hub for the vast majority of console functionality. Any number of the small components on the board may have failed or become damaged, and it’s safe to assume a faulty motherboard is the cause if nothing else on this page has worked.
