I Bought 25 BROKEN Xbox Elite Controllers - Let's Fix Them! I paid $1,750 for 25 broken Xbox Elite Controllers. These controllers had quite a few different issues including broken shoulder buttons, faulty analog sticks, vibrator-motor issues, a squishy X-button, and one controller with connection issues because of liquid damage. Luckily I was able to fix quite a few of these controllers and keep them from going into the trash.

About This Video: I bought 25 broken Xbox Elite Controllers to see if I could fix them. Controllers like this are hard to find replacement parts for and unfortunately, fixing controllers like this isn't a good way to make a profit but it does help keep them from ending up in a landfill. And it's fun to see how many I can figure out. Two of the more difficult fixes were diagnosing a weak rumble-motor and also fixing a controller that wouldn't stay connected (I got to use my wiring pencil for this fix).

People are going crazy on pre-orders, meanwhile Steve has not even blinked just thinking, 'I'm going to see so many of these things I don't need too'. All from sources such as: New videos of people golf clubbing consoles, throwing them off towers or tall buildings, angry girlfriends throwing them out of windows real or staged and people blowing them up. To which regular people will be shock, horrified and going 'oh no.' Meanwhile Steve is there nodding like an encouraging Jack Nicholson as he hits F5 on eBay.

After I had seen you saying "Keeping them from going right into the landfill", I pressed the subscribe button. Hope you can sell the fixed controllers with good prices.

"If you pay attention you can save yourself a lot of trouble" I feel like that should play on loop for anyone who does repairs... I can't tell you the number of times I've worked on something and had to take a break out of frustration for something not working right after dealing with that issue and then in the off time I realize I missed something stupidly obvious and even easier and boom problem solved lol

Thanks tronix for this video, it showed me how to take apart my controller so that I could transplant a thumbstick from an older controller onto the one I use a lot. The left thumbstick had a huge chunk of the padding falling off and barely hanging on. So I am glad I was able to replace it myself without having to pay 60 for a new controller

For the analog stick replacement portion, @t=11m45s, another solution is to use low temperature solder aka ChipQuik or the likes of it. That way you just heat up the joints and not expose the board to a lot of heat.
