This tutorial shows how to do inside a Nintendo Switch dock, if it is causing issues, such as the TV screen being blank in TV mode. I go all the way down to the springs and show how to replace them if needed, and clean if needed, then I show how to reassemble it. I do it to the original model, HAC-007. It's not certain if these methods will apply to the OLED model dock.
