This guide will explain how to replace the shoulder buttons on a DS Lite if they are sticking or not working properly.
The tools you’ll need for this task are:

Remove the seven screws securing the lower case:

Two gold Phillips screws

One black tri-wing screw
2 Phillips screws at the battery

You can now access the micro-button component and replace or repair anything as needed.
Could someone run through or send a link explaining the disassembly of the micro-button?
This explains how to disassemble the system, but has nothing about actually replacing the shoulder buttons. I got this far and found the R button has a ribbon cable port directly on the other side of the board, so I hoped to find something in here showing how to remove the button properly before putting the replacement in.

Thanks, this was very helpful. The ifixit guide doesn't include the needed details of how to clean the button contact. This fixed my issue.
+1 on this! Didn't need to replace the button at all.
