whtcrxghst Posted July 17, 2007 Report Share Posted July 17, 2007 http://www.avic411.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3153 Its a switch, so it slides from side to side. Take a paper clip or something and slide it to the opposite side from where it comes from the factory Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hollowtip45 Posted July 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2007 where do i insert the paper clip tho? on top of the shiny piece or on the side? cause i dont really see anything that resembles a switch or that will move. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
whtcrxghst Posted July 18, 2007 Report Share Posted July 18, 2007 You put the paper clip in the giant hole that is exposed when you remove the sticker. There is a little black switch that is sitting there against the circuit board. If you look at the picture on the other thread, there is a white outline (on the actual circuit board) of where the switch should be sitting from the factory. Kinda like a chalk outline. Move it over to the other position Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hollowtip45 Posted July 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2007 ok so that switch is very tiny then right and it is resting between the circuit board and the chrome piece? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
