    The 3 ways to fix your joycon.
    Step 1: Restart your joycon and pair it 2 times and then sleep on it.
    Step 2: Blow compressed air on the connector and port like it's an old gameboy.
    Step 3: If you still have a warranty.
    Ok so with the first step my controller won't connect because the controller is dead. On step 2 the controller still makes that click sound when I put it back in and the 3rd step DON'T YOU THINK I WOULD HAVE ALREADY ASKED FOR A REPLACEMENT BY A WARRANTY IN THE FIRST PLACE!

    Only correction for you: you need to hold the compressed gas level otherwise liquid dribbles out (as you saw). Hold the can level (like it's sitting on a table), and move the Switch around.
