If you are seeing an Nintendo error code on your Switch (like 2110-3127 or 2005-0003), that website is where you enter the code to get specific steps for fixing it.

Here is a quick guide to the most common error types and how to fix them right now without waiting for the website.

1. How to use the Official Tool

1. Go to support.nintendo.com/switch/error.

3. It will tell you if the servers are down or if you need to change a setting.

2. Quick Fixes by Error Type

If you don’t want to search the site, find the first 4 digits of your error code below:

Connection Errors (2110-XXXX to 2137-XXXX)

• What it means: Your Switch cannot talk to the internet or Nintendo’s servers.

• The Fix:

  • Restart the Console: Hold the Power Button for 3 seconds > Power Options > Restart.

  • Test Connection: Go to Settings > Internet > Test Connection.

  • Move Closer: 5GHz Wi-Fi is fast but weak; try moving closer to your router.

  • Change DNS: If it persists, change your DNS in Internet Settings to Google’s Public DNS (Primary: 8.8.8.8, Secondary: 8.8.4.4).

SD Card / Data Errors (2002-XXXX or 2005-XXXX)

• What it means: The Switch is having trouble reading your MicroSD card or game data.

• The Fix:

  • Power Off Completely: Hold the Power Button for 12 seconds to force a shutdown.

  • Reseat the Card: Remove the MicroSD card and wipe the metal contacts gently with a dry cloth, then reinsert it firmly.

  • Check for Corrupt Data: Go to Settings > Data Management > Software > [Select Game] > Check for Corrupt Data.

eShop & Credit Card Errors (2811-XXXX or 2813-XXXX)

• What it means: The eShop is timed out, or your payment method was rejected.

• The Fix:

  • Wait: These are often temporary server hiccups. Wait 15 minutes.

  • Use a Browser: Try buying the game or code on the official Nintendo website from your phone/PC instead of the Switch.

3. If your screen is frozen

If you have an error code but the screen is stuck and you can’t do anything:

• Hard Reset: Hold the Power Button down for 12-15 full seconds. The screen will go black. Then press power once to turn it back on. This fixes 90% of system crashes.
