How do I repair a broken hold/lock switch?

Text:

I have opened the iPod and went as far as taking off my battery to get a better view of the hold switch. i didn't see anything that caught my eye the orange cables were fine.I have heard of a tin foil method but i have no clue to put tin foil. Is there a way to find whats wrong with it and repair it?
Or is there anyway where i can just unlock and leave the broken switch (it will be broken but i still get to listen to my songs)
The other day it unlocked by itself when i was pressing buttons then after 30 seconds or a minute it locked it self again
