Unscrew the board over the PS3 button and move it aside as shown. The little white button where our wire wants to be is just held in by a little hot glue. Pick that glue apart with anything sharp (like a tiny screwdriver). Slide the board out and set it aside. I just left mine in there (as far as I can tell, this button is redundant with the PS3 button).

Remove the little white button and bag it up with the crappy tilt sensor. If you ever decide to RMA this guitar and want to try your luck with the warranty, you can re-assemble it with a little soldering on the old sensor and some hot glue for this button assembly.

I don't know about the PS3, but on the xbox isn't that little white button for syncing to the console? wouldn't removing it produce a problem if you ever had to sync th guitar again?

If i'm not mistaken, just resetting the guitar.. on/off does the job. I have used different guitars with different receivers with different playstations. Never have onced pushed the white button.
