I was capable to acquire the board of through a diminutive prying, found the + and - nodes on the circuit board, utilized a piece of metal to short the power and nothing. It tranquil might not turn on. The diminutive tiny blue LED on the board is enlighten, so I be familiar with the board is receiving power commencing from the battery. And the light goes out when I short the power, so I be familiar with I am "resetting" it. Additional than it just might not turn on. I guess I lose.
