Carefully remove the little switch from its recess on the rear case, and take out its molded plastic cover as well.

There are three leads connected to the switch: the red lead is for "high volume", the white lead is common, and the black lead is for "low volume". Keep track of these wires so you can connect them to the new switch (Step 4).
