I did the fix today, with a small strip of electric tape folded in 2. Hopefully it holds long enough to get to the Steam Deck 2 🤞

I am aware, thanks. I did the whole noisy fan replacement a year ago 😁 https://sh.itjust.works/post/20372232 That worked really well and I am glad I did it.

Thanks for giving me hope for a “light” fix. How long did that hold until your unrelated RMA ?

Maybe if I could find an adequate one, but it’s likely to be expensive and they could as well break it for good.

Do you mean this part [https://www.ifixit.com/en-eu/products/steam-deck-power-button] ? I do not see how this would fix my issue since this does not include the switch, only the plastic button.
