Default Z Button to Red. Problems.

I tried changing my Z button to red. I did all the mechanical procedures but the Red button just lade there after I pushed it all the way on and it wouldn’t do anything. Just frozen in. Didn’t move. I tried two buttons from two venders on Amazon. So I’m going to order one from Paragon and see if “THAT” works. Any suggestions

Did you check the "tiny clips" did NOT break as you pressed in the button?

Just found out that the Des Z button won’t work on 2024’s, which is what I have. I was wondering why it wouldn’t work. It seems to fit properly in the insert
