Thx I was an idiot that forgot to check that the switch was out of the way, hence why I needed to replace, so I don't really need instructions as of how to do it, and a recommendation: add that you should make where when reassembling you check that the switch matches up with the switch extension thing so everyone doesn't make my dumb mistake. I would not be here writing this message if I had made sure that switch was there on the second go around (I forgot to put the plastic protector on the metal stand mounts for attaching to a metal cockpit stand) so I found it oddly difficult to put the board back then snap... awkward silence plug in the wheel and it spins around, and mashes every single button, and repeats for hours until I unplug it defeated. All this from a dumb switch. Hope you enjoyed my whole life story... It actually kinda feels like my whole life story lol.
