We had a right bumper arm that was cracked. With this series of DIY videos I was able to disassemble (with a flat head screwdriver), glue the bumper arm, reassemble (without breaking anything) and present it back to happy husband for more Elder Scrolls fun. Thank you!! I think we will have to replace that arm at some point. Do you have a good parts source?

One of the main reasons why I have not upgraded to an elite controller myself (besides the fact that they are very expensive) is the lack of Bluetooth. Now, this may seem like a stupid question but is it possible to take the Bluetooth from a regular Xbox controller somehow and add it to the Elite?

My bumpers are different than yours were, the whole assembly around the Xbox button was attached as well. Also I recommend borrowing a soldering iron or paying for a good one. I grabbed one that just plugs into the wall and it does not have the heat to soften the solder.

Hey there. Was wondering if maybe you could provide some insight for me? I’ve had this problem twice now, but I’ve done some DIY Paint projects on two of my controller, and I have this problem where, after everything’s put back together, properly, for some reason, the controller registers that one or both of the triggers is being activated, despite the fact that it isn’t. I really can’t tell what exactly the problem is, but it seems as if the trigger isn’t coming back up 100% of the way, or for some reason the trigger naturally sits at a position where it’s activated. If I manually pull up on the trigger, it does deactivate. But as soon as I let go of it, it reactivates. I was wondering if maybe you had any knowledge on this type of situation, and / or if you know what a fix was. Thanks in advance!

So I ran into an issue. I put my controller back together, even re-soldered the wiring. All the vibrations work, the B button and all the other buttons work except for the AXY buttons. I know it would have to be a problem with the first board, however before I took it apart the problem I had was with the rubber pad for the buttons due to the one under the A button breaking. Any ideas on what the issue could be?

That's a simple fix. You can get a replacement RB/LB button that goes under the cover for the home button. Getting the old one out may be tricky but it should be simple to fix. Just be careful if you choose to completely remove the back as there is a ribbon cable there.

Why did your sync button disappear? It was in the housing next to the xbox guide button, but then when you were getting the triggers back on, you had an edit, and it was gone. The end result was missing it as well. Its the thing I am looking on how to reattach lol.

I have this EXACT same problem with my other controller right now! It's definitely an issue you can fix. It could be one of a few things: - Rumble motor wires have moved around and are interfering with the joystick - Something sticky got in the joystick - Something sticky got in the circuit board - Bad circuit board You're going to have to open it up to see what's wrong with it, but you should be able to figure it out without taking just the shell off (check out my first video: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Z7d-i7WB0rOqeH0.html)

Hey Jake - glad this helped you out. There's definitely a few things that could have happened. Check to make sure your circuitboards are snapped back together. It's a little bit wonky. Also, make sure the battery prongs that stick out are placed properly...I had an issue with that one of the first times I did a controller repair. Finally, double check the home button housing. Also another weird area that could prevent the controller from turning on if anything is wrong. Let me know if any of this stuff works!

Thanks for stopping by and commenting! For your bumper, are the clips on the bottom of the bumper broken? Are there any other parts that are broken? If so, you'll need to replace it . And yes, you'll need to open the controller to replace no matter what, but the cool thing is you only need to pull the outer shell off to fix the bumpers (see my video on that here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Z7d-i7WB0rOqeH0.html) Even if you don't have to fix it, it's cool to be able to know how to do it if something breaks in the future :)
