Dos this switch disable and enable the shorting of the pins? Because I don’t want something that’s permanent on my one and only system that we had to preorder the Super Mario odyssey bundle from target because Switches were not available in my state because they were selling out within seconds during the summer of 2017.
gbazone clarified in another thread, that he touches the "other end" of the wire to the fan housing, which acts as ground.Just use a wire and you'll never have to open your Joycon. Look at my previous post.
Can you make a pic so we can see what pin exactly, it's position with switch, this metal of the fan. Still can't find a good noob fridnly photos. It would be a good contribute.Just use a wire and you'll never have to open your Joycon. Look at my previous post.

Means it's closer to the back side of console? We still needs good noob friendly photo, just to rid these stupid questions like mine. And video is even better.It's the last pin, the one away from the screen

i'd hate to hook on here but i need help with shorting the pins. i can't bend them because i don't have a tri wing screwdriver. any ideas?I got into RCM once using a standard paperclip without a joycon plugged in, but it was just good luck and I haven't been able to do it again since.
It's quite simple, but you need good lighting and good eyes. In fact, I disconnected my right Joycon and went outside into the sunlight to see pin 10 clearly. It's tricky because you have to find a way to hold the wire on pin 10 (which is closest to the kickstand) and also hold volume + while pressing power. I was able to get the other end of the wire to stay put in the fan housing. It takes practice but I feel it's much better than opening the Joycon. I bet in a week I will be able to do it consistently without much hassle.

ok. so basically just hold a copper/bronze wire to pin 10 which is closest to back of switch, then attach other end to fan grill? i'll try thisAs I've been saying, ditch the idea of modifying your joycon. Get a decently thick wire (say .5mm), attach one end to the metal grill of the fan housing at the top of the console, and the other end to pin 10, and keep trying until you're in recover mode. I don't have a tri wing either. If you have any old PC or phone charger cables around cut down to about six inches and then strip at both ends.
I am now able to do it without looking, just shove the wire between pins 10 and 9 and it will work (and hold)
edit : but again they are GPIO wires with solid headers on both ends
Btw, do you really need to open your joycon? I can see them (pins) very well without any dismantle. I think i can make a tiny metal plate and just put it in that small hole, so i can short pin 9 and 10. Or am i missing something?It's quite simple, but you need good lighting and good eyes.
