====== Error code 022-2402 ======

This is a guide on how to fix the 022-2402 error code on Nintendo 3DS when linking a PNID.

First of all, if you experience this error code, check the friends list application for an error code. 

==== Friends List doesn't give an error code ====

If the Friends List application doesn't give you an error code, reopen System Settings. You'll need to go into Other Settings and change the language on your system.

Once you've changed the language, attempt to link your PNID again. It should link successfully this time. If you still have the same error code, ask for support on the forum and if you have a different error code, we'd recommend searching it up.

If your PNID linked successfully, you can now revert back to English (or the language that you were using beforehand).

==== Friends List gives an error code ====

If your Friends List gives you an error code, there could be a variety of fixes. These are usually the most common error codes that appear:

   * 002-0101 - likely an issue with your SecureInfo_A file but can occasionally be a Pretendo outage. If servers aren't experiencing issues, ask for help in [[https://discord.gg/nintendohomebrew|Nintendo Homebrew]].
   * [[pretendo:ec:002-0121|002-0121]] - first two Luma3DS settings not enabled or (occasionally) [[pretendo:ec:002-0150|issue with LocalFriendCodeSeed_B.]]
   * [[pretendo:ec:002-0150|002-0150]] - issue with LocalFriendCodeSeed_B.

Once you've fixed the error code that appears in the Friends List, you shouldn't get error code 022-2402 when linking a PNID.
