5.) at very top right next to screw hole locate proximity sensor
6.) put a thin piece of card / paper on sensor so that when you screw the plate back on the sensor is pushed slightly forward. (note i used a piece of thin card a very small piece) and then i held the backplate and battery on to test it before screwing it shut again
