Nintendo Switch 2 Heat Pipe Cleaning

ID: 193148

Description:

Steps:

  1. If you don't have replacement thermal putty, use the flat end of a spudger to distribute the old putty evenly across the heat pipe, as thick as possible to ensure proper contact. Repeat this process on the shield plate, then skip this step.
  2. Use the flat end of a spudger to scrape off the thermal putty on top of the copper heat pipe.
  3. Apply high-concentration (90% or higher) isopropyl alcohol or thermal material remover to a cotton swab or lint-free cloth and wipe away any remaining thermal putty on both the heat pipe and shield plate.
  4. Don't use a paper towel or rag, as they may scratch the shield plate.
