Steam Deck: Why can't the machine be started without plugging in the c为什么不插充电线开不了机

Wed, 28 Feb 2024 03:38:09 -0700

After playing the game in the evening, the battery was 18%. I plugged in the data cable. By the way, it was late. I quit the game and pressed the steam key - Power - Shut down. After charging for about an hour, I unplugged the data cable and turned off the light to sleep

The next day, I couldn't turn on the machine. I plugged in the charger and turned it on, thinking it was OK. When I saw 100% full power, I unplugged the charger and the screen went black

Now the charger must be plugged into the machine to play normally!!!!!

At present, it is useless to re insert and unplug the battery after removing the back cover,

The BATT 100% and charger logo can be seen on the power on performance interface

And there are 99% prompts for diagnosis under the battery, and the figure of 0 watt

Need your help

14号签收，17号晚上打完巫师3看电量18%，顺手插了数据线，顺便看时间很晚了就退出游戏按steam键-电源-关机，充了大概一个小时就拔开数据线关灯睡觉

第二天就开不了机，插了下数据线开机了以为没事，看到满电100%拔开就黑屏了

现在必须得充电器插着开机才能正常游玩！！！！！

装备问题等：目前sd卡刚到货，扩展坞没买

14号晚上整的系统，第二天15号整浏览器steam++并且下载游戏第三天不知道玩啥，第四天群友说的巫师3就下载了打了2小时

目前排查：进行拆机后重新插拔电池多次没有用，拔开电池插充电器开机，在性能5级图标看不到BATT 之类的

插电开机能看到BATT100% 和充电器标识

并且电池下诊断那里有99%的提示，和0瓦的图示

Steam Deck: Will the SSD shield be available for sale here?

Thu, 16 Apr 2026 14:22:59 -0700

I wonder if the shield over the SSD that you have to remove before you do anything can be sold here and I'm also wondering why it's currently not. Either version but specifically the newer one.

Steam Deck: What tape can I use as a replacement for the silver heat shield?

Thu, 16 Apr 2026 14:12:08 -0700

When I was trying to fix my R1 button I thought the shield screw was underneath that tape and I peeled it off. I managed to get it back on but it wasn't really that sticky so I'm wondering what type of tape would work with it. I've seen some suggest kapton tape or graphite tape but In general I want it to remain black

Steam Deck: Steam Deck - No battery indicator after battery replacement.

Thu, 09 Apr 2026 15:55:40 -0700

Hello everybody

After purchasing a new battery here from iFixit and carrying out the repair, I have no battery icon visible on the device.

When I connect the old battery, the icon is visible again.

Can we agree this must be an issue with the battery? RMA.

Any input greatly appreciated.

Steam Deck OLED: Left Speaker: No audio below 50% volume

Sun, 29 Mar 2026 07:40:53 -0700

I only recently noticed my SD has no audio from the left speaker when the volume (general or just for the left speaker channel) is below 50%. It gets really spotty between 50 and 59% (i.e. it cuts off a lot) but works normally from 60% upwards which is too loud for me.

I've checked the audio in-game, on Steam (Gaming mode), and on Desktop mode. The issue is universal. Bluetooth and 3.5mm hack are unaffected. Speaker channel volumes are equal.

I haven't seen anyone else with this same specific issue though I know audio issues with the SD seem to be rampant. I've tried some simple fixes including the Factory reset which did not help.

Anyone have any ideas?

Controls won't respond, and Bluetooth won't connect to anything. Going into desktop mode the controller isn't there, no Bluetooth mouse, no Bluetooth keyboard either.I tried a physical keyboard also and no luck.When I look at controllers connected I get no game controller found, and when I look at the Bluetooth settings it says no Bluetooth adapters found

HI!

I was wondering how I can clean the inside of my steam deck, I never done this before and since I usually use my deck in a very dusty outdoor business, the inside of my steam deck is very dirty.

Thank you in advance for the help!

My steam deck up directional button is not given any input or not working at all. My other buttons on my steam deck does including the left, down, and right d pad inputs. I took it apart to see what was wrong with it I can't seem to brainstorm what's going on as everything looks normal inside. So what I need a new membrane Dpad or the entire left bumper board with the d-pad cable?

Steam Deck: Replaced left trackpad but it's not recognized whatsoever

Mon, 16 Feb 2026 18:42:03 -0700

I procured an authentic Steam Deck OLED left trackpad, and after I installed it, my Steam Deck OLED failed to recognize it, whatsoever. I double checked all my connections, and checked for any damage to the trackpad, but everything was secure and without damage. The QR code on the back of my old trackpad read: SECN43700B84 and the new trackpad read: SWYFBF7G0030102345257701. They obviously don't follow the same formatting scheme so I'm wondering if they are from different generations. Any insight or guidance on the matter would be greatly appreciated since there is little to no documentation regarding this issue. Thank you to whomever tries to help me with this.

Steam Deck OLED: My Steam Deck OLED controls stopped working

One day, I went to log in to my Steam Deck, but the controls weren't working. The buttons woldn't respond, and it would say no controller detected. The trackpad stopped working, but today it came back? Nothing else responded though. The touchscreen still works, along with power, vol buttons. I am aslo able to still connect a mouse and keyboard, and a bluetooth controller. How do I fix this problem?

Steam Deck: Where can I buy Left and right Daughter Board?

Fri, 06 Feb 2026 09:54:50 -0700

My Steam Deck fell down, from 80cm onto carpet but it was enough to destroy both R1 and L1 Shoulder Buttons. They snapped right from the daughter board, ripping the traces. No way to solder them back on.

Now I need a new left and right daughter Board but this part seems not to be sold as replacement. Since it was the first to break from a little drop, I imagine more people would need this soon.

Steam Controller: My right bumper isn't working

Wed, 04 Feb 2026 23:22:58 -0700

I was playing a game and was pressing and holding this button a lot. Suddenly, it stopped working. I ran the diagnose on Big Picture mode and when I pressed it really hard it was detected, which led me to believe the problem was with the button piece and not the “sensor”. I haven’t tried opening it yet. How can I fix it?

I opened yesterday and can say for sure now it’s the button.

I’m thinking the only way to fix this now is to 3D print another piece
