HEY EVERYONE THIS IS WHY YOU USE A JIG

Good luck getting it out tho.

OP hope you get it out but for the love of God get a jig on Ebay for $2.

Have you tried using tweezers or some other thin pokey thing like a toothpick?

Just mod your joycon. It makes things easier.

Or just bend the pins in a joycon works wonders

I did the tinfoil 1 time to enable autorcm, now I don't have to bother with any jigs or tinfoils lol.

christ, is this bad advice day or what the heck is going on?
bent pins are future broken pins. don't do it.

Just mod your joycon. It makes things easier.

it's kind of a chore though and certainly not for everyone.
unless you're savy enough to get a reed switch mod going, I'd say, go for a good jig.

at least one post of sense. yeah, don't do tinfoil. if it gets stuck without you noticing, it might short out the entire system.
also, don't use screwdrivers.

Don't do this. Bending the pins is dangerous if you do it wrong. Soldering 2 points in the joycon is way easier

So I couldn't get the paper clip to work and to my surprise all who couldn't had great success with the tin foil. Now I'm in the same situation and I'm not entirely sure where it magically went. Where did your tin foil go?
