This repair does not require removing the joysticks or buttons, but it makes the repair much easier. | | '''Note:''' This procedure requires removing the shield plate and heat sink. The thermal paste will need to be cleaned off of both components—as well as the CPU—and reapplied before reinstalling the shield plate and heat sink. | | The Switch Lite uses JIS screws, but you can use a Phillips screwdriver in a pinch. Be very careful not to strip the screw. iFixit's Phillips bits are designed to be cross-compatible with JIS-style screws. | | '''***Note:'''*** This procedure requires removing the shield plate and heat sink. The thermal paste will need to be cleaned off of both components—as well as the CPU—and reapplied before reinstalling the shield plate and heat sink.
