Common Reasons Your Switch Lite Won’t Charge
Several reasons could explain why your Nintendo Switch Lite isn’t taking a charge. The most common issue is a faulty or unconnected charger. Make sure your charger is plugged in securely at both ends. Also, check for any visible damage that could be causing the problem.
