Hi guys. I need help my nintendo switch boots up normally and shows signal from the dock but the screen is on it is backlit but it doesn't show any image plus the digitizer works because if i click something it makes sound. can you help me? It started doing this when I tried to fix the front frame and when I put it back this happened. Thank you in advance for your reply.
Is this a good question?

There are two connectors for the screen, one is for the digitizer and the other is for the LCD. It sounds like you got the digitizer plugged back in correctly, but I'm guessing the LCD flex cable isn't seated quite right. Here's the cable you should be checking.
You'll need to open the Switch back up and check that connector. There are two little tabs on either side that should both be butted up against the connector itself; if they're uneven or not inserted all the way you could well have video image problems.
Take a look at that and let us know what you find.
There is a second LCD connector that could conceivably be causing problems if it isn't in all the way.
If you hold a flashlight up to the screen, can you see any image? If so, that would indicate that the backlight is out for some reason. On smartphones it wasn't unusual to blow the backlight circuit either on the LCD or on the logic board if you plugged and unplugged it with the battery connected, but as far as I know that hasn't been a big issue with the Switch so far.

Hi thanks for responding so quickly I've already checked that connector I've reattached and unplugged it at least four times but strangely it always doesn't go the contacts seem fine because even though I haven't used a microscope. Because it's my first time repairing, I don't have access to this tool. what else do you think it could be?
Still nothing of i hold a flashlight nothing dunno what's appeningš¤·
Did you ever figure out how what was wrong with it? Mines doing the same.
