So I got the fan issue where it won’t work and overheats, so I am sending it back to amazon for replacement, and just wondering how deactivation works as when I deactivate it in the shop, when I go back into the shop after deactivation, the option is still there for me to deactivate it, so how do I do this?
Should I factory reset it before sending it back also?

You should first get Nintendo online to upload your data so when you get a replacement. Then you can restore the data back. Unkess you have nothing saved then wiping clean but you should contact Nintendo support what to do before sending back.

@OdiumFM They will probably replace the entire system since taking apart the system is harder for them.

@OdiumFM Nintendo would be the ones repairing it, but it probably would take too much labor/$ to fix over giving you a replacement.

@OdiumFM You should ask Nintendo support what you have to do to send back the Switch and where to send it, as @SwitchForce said.

@SwitchForce shouldn’t I just send it back if it is faulty?

Yes you send it back but you should first backup any saves or data on your Switch otherwise everything is gone. Buy a 1 year Nintendo online and upload your save data or data and then reset it and send it back for replacement.

You send it to whom you bought it from for replacement when under warranty for RMA if out of warranty it goes to Nintendo repair. This is something you need to find out where it goes.
