Should just pull the white part from the black part. It is usually a tight fit and take a grunt or two. If it is a newer switch, which this doesn't look like, it would be turn the white part to the right (I think) if you're facing the start button.

Sometimes you have to snap it in really hard. Make sure the switch part inside the white part (it's actually two pieces) is snapped in fully too.

Yes, check that one didn't come loose. Those snap in ones act like they're in but need a bit more force. Is the button clicking when off when pressing the start? You may need to try with game off.

Here's a picture I found from my TAF that shows the wires going to where they should be.

Can you carefully place that switch from shorting and testing it if it works when it's not in the start button housing?

#17 4 years ago

Few more pics I dug up from my refresh.

Ah, yes @greenmachine19 sounds like he's onto why it may not work. Note the two wires on the outside do the lights. The inside two are the switch.

Quoted from Karpy1717:

so good news... while in switch test it did register as start button

So there is a start button specific LED that is shorter. Did you use that or regular style?

#28 4 years ago

Sorry I got pulled away but sounds like you found your issue is the LED physically. Here’s a regular SMD and start version LED. Trimming one should work at edge too. You can see comparisons of all three bulbs.

Since I have a start button (actually super ball but same physically) handy, here’s a few pics showing the switch. I’m sharing as I didn’t know this when I got into hobby. But that switch has two tits (yes that’s a technical pinball term) and you carefully pry and end and can swing it out.
