ASUS X556U Onboard RAM Disable

Hello.
I have a laptop ASUS X556U with motherboard X556UV_MB REV 3.1 and it has onboard ram which is faulty. It also has a separate socket for ram.
How can we disable the onboard ram via the resistors swapping on the motherboard in order to use a ram card?
On the boardview (see attached) I find PCB_ID and DIMM_SEL resistors which I believe they have to do with that but I don't know which ones to swap exactly.
Can you help?
Thank you in advance.
