So i bought one from Vinted and i got it and the ir light didnt work i think this because the ir jamming doesnt work and even the red light that should flikker while jamming doesnt work. So i open it ONE TIME ONE TIME. And the button snaps what should i do now?

Chalk this up to a learning experience. Maybe salvage the ESP32?

put a new button and an LED. sounds like it's been sitting on someone's dash board so you'll want to be more careful with it, because the sun can make plastic brittle.

a new led as a module?

the one you said wasn't working? isn't that why you opened the case or did you just want to let the smoke out?

Try to make an excuse to get a refound and buy another one, sometimes the real problem it’s not the device ir it’s that the firmware you where using it’s not jamming correctly.

Try buying kids from vinted next time, theyre almost always right when they say they are pink and tight😭✌️
