An other trick to shut down a LED : if wires are accessible, just short circuit them. This is the case here. A thin copper wire without insulation, wrapped around the pins. No risk, as the LED is fed through a polarization resistor that limits the current. Current will just grow by a few milliamps. (resistor is generally external, and rarely built in ; but it exists. Naturally, never short circuit a led with built in resistor !!!)
why make it simple when it can be complicated ????
