To be honest I didn’t truly understand at first. Tho the idea is (if i understood correctly) to give the sonix board a false reading, by earthing a point off the board. forcing it to load from sd card.
As for some reason mine was refusing to read the sd card. I don’t know why tho, and I’m sure it’s not a common issue.
Let me study how to do PR. I will work on it. Another second hand SV got from eBay is showing the similar symptom. May not be popular but looks like not so rare either.
