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

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.

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

ok so that switch is very tiny then right and it is resting between the circuit board and the chrome piece?
