Hi Erick,
I don't think there is any guide.
Just make sure you have anti-static strap on. The flash memory is like a PC DRAM memory.

Flash is fried.

oh nooooo... but before that the switch works fine, and there something i can do to fix it?

If you have another 2900XL lying around, you can swap parts around.
