Break your bumpers on your Xbox controller (model 1697 - look under batteries)? This is all you need to know about how to fix them. In this tutorial, I show you how to fully disassemble, replace the bumpers, and reassemble your controller step by step so you don't have to worry. Below are all the tools I used to fix my controller.
Bumpers and repair kit (model 1697): amzn.to/2uMI02c
The above product comes with screwdrivers, a pry tool, and two sets of bumpers so it is an all-in-one package and the highest-rated for the price on Amazon.
P.S Obviously the bumpers on this controller are intact, I re-did the process for a more comprehensive experience for the viewer.

Your vid was so helpful amigo, I was stuck for so long getting the bumper plate to snap in but went to your tutorial and realized I wasn't making sure the arms were in position. I was gonna go yell at a seller on ebay thinking they sold me the wrong bumpers. So thanks again amigo🙏🏽✌🏽

Not having a problem with the sync button or the plastic bit that hits the actual button for the bumpers but the little hook on the bumpers(far end piece) will only fit on one side at a time and they both click like normal until i put the back casing on in which case it just doesnt click on that side thats not fit into place and yes i tried with the back case already on and same end result

I did this repair (with another kit) and my right bumper doesn't spring back, it just stays down. I used a different kit and I'm wondering if that's why or if any of you know what might be causing this. Putting it on and taking it off will surely break the replacement at some point.

I'd recommend snipping off one of the little hooks at the end of the bumper that's stuck. Not the legs that press the button itself, but the part that hooks in for extra stability.

@@KindaSolidSnake how does this work, will the button be loose feeling but function properly or will it feel like its how its meant to be?

@@moonpig660 It feels fine. It's still connected to the bar that holds both of the bumpers.

PSA: A lot of the internet says the casing screws are T8. The kit I ordered had a T8. However, after stripping a screw, I realized. You need a T9!! Not a T8. Maybe others got it to work with a size too small but I couldn't. Was fortunate enough to buy some security tork bits for $5 at my local store to confirm. And all went well thanks to this video. All fixed and working again TLDR: If your screwdriver isn't working on those back 5 screws, get a T9 security tork!

I can't unscrew it. None of the screwdrivers I have been using are working to dismantle it

Understandable, the screws it uses are a special almost TORX type. The amazon link i have put in the description should solve your problems. Hope this helps :)

Yea if it helps I have found that you can get by with using a small flathead screwdriver that can fit in the screw. Itll work if its the right size

My controller doesn't have the screw under the batteries

@jb4037 5 жыл бұрын

Hey, you have to break the sticker thats under the batteries to find it, just feel around with the screwdriver until you feel a bit of give. It should be toward the middle. I am pretty sure that if your controller is an official xbox controller it should be there.
