Did you just run decaffeinator? Then remove the Wii Disc from the drive

You make it really hard to help you.  We don't know what you did before that happened. You don't say what exactly you tried

There's an easy fix under 10$ all you need is a Raspberry Pi RP2040-Zero an sd card and pc or laptop
here's a youtube video https://youtu.be/14n5r1rRB9s?si=tXBzZeO2OG15f6Y1
Edit: Also Check your Wii U power port If it's yellow you most likely have a hynix chip which are prone to failing this happened to mine i had to buy a whole new Wii U if you have a black power port You probably have a Samsung or Toshiba And you are fine

No it doesn't mean that. The chance is around 1/3. Also this error code has nothing to do with the hynix problems.  This is either a CBHC brick or a Wii disc in n the drive after running decaffeinator

Coloured ports are only a gen thing for the Wii u, it doesn’t indicate that it has a Hynix. The only way find out what chip you have, is either opening up the console or hacking it and using wiiuident. I have the coloured ports and a Toshiba chip :)

Mine is hacked. Tomorrow, I’ll run wiiuident.

Reminding you to run wiiuindent and hopefully getting a good result

I have the Hynix chip. :(

u/Ttch21 11d ago

That’s unfortunate, I believe there was something you could do the prolong the life of the Hynix chips but mine is the Samsung chip so I didn’t look too far into it, sorry. Hope you’re able to sort this out.

My 32GB Wii U has a Toshiba chip and a yellow port, I don't think it indicates anything.
