My steam deck stopped charging, bought a new charger to be safe but still no dice. Opened her up and reseated the battery then tried the charger again. There was a hissing sound so I immediately unplugged it. The port smelled like burning, but after removing the board, there are no visual signs of burnt components. I do have access to a hot air soldering station, but I’m not even sure if it’s just the port that’s damaged at this point. Anyone replaced the USB-C before? Anyone had to ship their deck to a repair center?
Can’t you just send it back to Valve? They’ll most likely just send you a new one back
