      @Julio V. hey! I have the same issue. But I wasn't aware of this because i bought it used and I tried it out they were working fine, it did keep telling me to push in the right joycon because it wasn't completely in i guess but it was charging and it worked fine so i thought it was maybe the control or it was dirty on the slider so i ignored it thinking if anything ill just buy new ones. So I wanted to factory reset the device and once I turned it on it asked me to slide both controls in and like the one the video. And I'm stuck on that screen! Where can I buy that part and the name of that part?

It goes directly to the joycon connection screen , and the right joycon is really tough to slide on , you almost have to force it , which I don't wanna do ! could it be the cheap Joycons ? or maybe the Tablet ? This Sucks !!!!! haha Can someone please throw some suggestions my way Please ..... The Ebay seller I think gives a 30 day refund but if It's just the Joycons

The button on the back both work fine but the small button on the edge work perfect on the left side. I play snimal crossing new horizons and the button on the left edge which you can switch clothes to clean you home and the right side button was to bring up a key pad to talk to friend who are playing their acnh game. I don't know why it's stopped please anyone help as I would love to fix this one as I can't afford £330 for a new one.

    I’m so stupid, please before you take apart your switch and purchase everything. Try borrowing someone’s JoyCon or use another you have. I did all of these steps just to find out my cords were perfect. Went in GameStop earlier and bought a new pre owned right JoyCon and it instantly worked. I guess I’ll keep this in mind for future reference. It was odd because the previous JoyCon didn’t have any physical damage so I believed it was my Switch itself. God those screws are so small and it took forever to take apart and put back together. Fucking Nintendo.
