I'm shocked of how easy this thing is to fix. it seems like nintendo is thinking of repairmen in mind. after all, something easier for us to fix also makes it easier for them to fix.

I tried to fix the ZL button mushy button but turns out someone spilled Pepsi or Malta and the metal part was sticky but I ended accidentally ripping the Ribbon that leads to ZL with that thing you have but my repair tool was pointy and sharp so I put everything back together and only ZL button has no Input so I just bought the Repair Parts for $6 instead of $9.75 and thats so easy to replace

does this also work with the PowerA wired Nintendo switch controller? im having problems with my R button, AND my A button. because i discovered that i could use my controller to play minecraft on my chromebook. but the R button and the A button does not respond or work at all when i try changing the minecraft setting controlls and im not used to some of the controlls since they dont work

Another tip: I had a trigger start to feel loose. What had happened was it's worn out over time, and the plastic was dislodging the metal bar. All I had to do was take it out, and fit it back in snug, while leaving some exposed to remove it in the future if need be. I thought I was going to have to replace the entire trigger bracket / thought a piece of plastic broke.

I've notice I use the same tool set as you in 5:43, I have to say that's a very cheap set with poor quality. The drivers head are very soft so it mass both heads and screws while you turn it. Also, it's too thick to reach certain screws which are deep in the pro controller.

Forgetting the Bluetooth device and reconnecting it works but the problem starts again after a little.

I absolutely LOVE the thorough breakdown, explanations, and timely execution of this tutorial. The views and angles were AMAZING! Literally, EVERYTHING! 🔥 The close visual attention to details like "slightly pull and push the rubber device on both sides until it's fully locked or latched flush in place" is EXCEPTIONAL at best. Of course, that is me paraphrasing as I think back or recollect the moment. I was equally impressed when I saw that your "Reassemble" section of the video with instructions was just as accurate and easily formatted as taking the Nintendo Switch Pro Controller apart for the repair portion. GENIUS! Articulation and follow-through are unmatched, even for someone of my beginner-friendly caliber and level of expertise. Your how-to, along with the product descriptions and links, are really TOP-NOTCH! Thank you for sharing. Please keep up the GREAT work! Job, WELL-DONE!
