My switch turns on when i dock it portable#

Periodically try turning your console on using the button at the top of the charger. Be aware that the console may not start even after this has been displayed, so give it some time. You may see a battery indicator appear in the top-left corner of the screen, which would suggest that the console is charging. This will eliminate the dock as being a cause for your issue. Next, take the power cord out of the dock and plug it directly into the Switch via the USB-C connector at the bottom of the unit. Nintendo recommends resetting the AC adapter by unplugging it from both the wall and Switch for 30-seconds, so make sure you’ve done that before moving on. Due to the pre-charge process required by lithium-ion batteries, it can take a little while before your Switch will turn on when the battery is completely flat. If your Switch appears to be completely dead or won’t boot up after displaying the Nintendo logo, you should charge it for a while.

If the Nintendo logo appears then disappears, your Switch is probably out of battery, which brings us to our next solution. If your console isn’t docked, you should either see the lock screen or a Nintendo logo indicating that the boot process is starting.

If the switch is connected to a dock, the green light on the front of the cradle will light up when the console powers up. Press the power on button on the top of the Switch to turn it on.
