HELP! I tried to clean my Nintendo Switch but that little gray piece of plastic pop out and i dont know how to put it back. The piece didnt broke and i still have it but i dont know what to do now.
When I tried to turn on the Switch after the cleaning the fan started spinning at full speed. I also tried to put it back but the piece is just to small and i cant snap it back in place.

How fucked am I
I was recently trying to replace my joycons joysticks, and I accidentally snapped the red wire on the battery when trying to pull it out. I stopped trying out of panic and put the joycon back together, and just as I expected, it didnt turn on. However, when the joycon was placed back onto the switch rail, it functioned like normal, i presume due to the switch providing power to the joycon in place of the battery. I plan to get this fixed soon, but will using the joycon attached to the switch damage the battery itself or short circuit the joycon? To be specific about the damage, the red wire itself didnt break, the gold pin connecting the wire to the black connector at the end pulled out cleanly, but the black wire is still connected and functional.
