I was unsure how to remove the wires earlier in Step 10, but I've decided now to rip the wires loose from their soldered components using a pair of pliers. I tried removing them all, but when I pulled them out of one spot, they would be joined to another area, or even to the other side of the projector which was a huge problem without wire cutters.

Some sets of wires are interconnected, such as the yellow one connects from the coil to the switch, so I had to flip the projector back and forth to see where connected where.

I pulled off all the wires soldered onto the 'switch box', this took a bit of effort in twisting and yanking. I thought after that, the entire component would be easier to remove, however it was still solidly stuck in place.

I used pliers to try crack open the 'switch box', hoping to discover any secrets to removing it, but all I got was some insight on how the flicking switch mechanism works, which was very interesting and well designed. It seems the switch was an on/off, but there was a third option, perhaps to switch the frame rate?
