Switched battery successfully - small part is left over

Hi y'all,

so I switched the battery on my iPhone SE 2020 and it appears as I did it successfully. I noticed this little metal piece before re-assembly, but I could just not figure out where to put it. Does anyone have any idea where this part belongs?

Hi Ingo,

That's a retainer on the left side of the Taptic Engine. Somehow it got missed in our version of the Taptic Engine guide, but over at the Spanish site Nadie Me Llama Gallina their guide shows the clip after it's been removed.

It's on Step 11 of their "Vibrator" guide (it's in Spanish, but quite usable when put together with the Chrome auto translation).

Ah, cool. Should be quite easy to insert it afterwards, I reckon. Thanks a ton.
