Thanks a lot man! You're a great technician and now the double clicking problem on the left button is fixed! Just gained a new subscriber!

My biggest problem with this mouse was the rubber gripping around the mouse in the back and on the side. When attempting to spudge the thing open, the rubber would just break away as if it was clay. Still, that is mostly a cosmetic problem and this mouse has been excellent for me over the years. I just have the issue where my mouse will randomly scroll up or down for seemingly no reason. Used your guide to pop it open and clean it, and now it seems to work well again. Thanks!

Great video - thanks so much for posting! A little extra intel after I soldered in a new left button microswitch: the two microsprings go under the clear plastic spinner mount - you can see two little wells where they settle into. This gives the wheel a bit of spring. Magical!

THIS is the video i was looking for, not that other cotton swab "sweep the dirt under the rug" crap. the DEEP clean 😤😤😤

Thank you! Spilled some coffee on my mouse and my thumb button got stuck. Cleaned it off, confirmed it was clicky again, and put it back together. Cheers!

this is an excellent video, I was able to get off just putting the stickers back on but I already ordered new ones, special thank you for the info on the small springs I couldn't remember where they were before 🙃

Thanks. After tossing a glass of water over my G502 yesterday I dryed it with tissues for some hours. Later that evening I used it again and the mouse wheel was buggy. It went away, so I thought it is fine. Today one of the extra buttons was permanently pressed and then it was broken completely. I hammered it for like 100 times. Then I decided to clean it following your guide, which I finished 10 minutes ago. Before I put it back together I tested if the switch is still working and it was. With that in mind I put it back together after getting some hairs and a small feather out of it and boom it is working fine again. Great!

Thanks for the tutorial friend, I had a problem with my Logitech G502 was not working well the cursor was moving like crazy. After opening it and cleaning it was solved.

Nice tut but I have a G502 wireless which has a few additional steps which I could not move forward on until I understand the mechanism, it's a flat cable being held firmly onto PCB's there's 2 of them and they are not like your typical phone connectors. To make it more difficult there is some sticky film on the actual joints. But I did manage to get the mouse working for now so I best get another cheaper one because you will never use the dpi on high

Thank you for this video! I have a G502 where the mouse wheel wasn't free spinning very well (would come to a stop shortly after flicking it). This video helped me take it apart enough to find lint/stuff wedged in the bottom of the clear plastic housing the mouse wheel sits in. Pried one side of it apart with a small screwdriver while carefully shoving a small strip of paper towel (cut with a scissors to size) soaked with isopropyl in there to grab it and pull it out. Now that thing spins like brand new AND the mouse still works! Tip: Use this video to identify where the screw holes are in the skates under the mouse. Use an X-acto knife or similar sharp (but small) blade to poke INTO the screw holes, then carefully cut the skate material away (in a circle) running the blade at a slight angle to the screw hole. You'll get access to the screws without having to remove the entire skate or needing to replace them. The missing skate material (small circles) over each screw hole shouldn't affect glide. At least I couldn't tell a difference when I was done. Oh, DO NOT stab into the center one in-line with the cord. Heh, I made that mistake watching this at first thinking there was a screw hole. Luckily I didn't cut into the mouse cord in there.

thank you so much!! I had spilled a sugary drink not long ago on my mouse, and its only been getting worst - sticky inside. it was frustrating because theyre all my main buttons! Now after a huge clean, everything works like brand new :) And it feels clean lol!

my logitech g502 hero was dead, even the lights didnt turn on when i pluged in the USB cabel. Now its working like its new. Thank you for the tutorial. ( you forgot the springs for wheel, and its hard to see if you put the transparent plastic piece upside down or not)

This mouse has pads that are kinda hard to reuse but I was able to reuse them by using a weak glue (will be easier next time). Also, unless I need impact resistance, it doesn't need all the screws, so I refrained from reattaching the screw under the tinny pad. The other pads can be just minimally opened just enough to reach the screw. That's how I did with the other pads.

My 5-year-old G502 has an ocasionally stuck wheel and I tried to open it, but the screws just won't budge.Not sure if I'm using improper tools or if something's wrong with the mouse.

thanks for this amazing video

Cleaning just the top shell fixed my left button not being able to drag and copy. Thank you

What if i want The smooth pads?

Good video, Sadly I failed at removing the husk, didnt want to pry it even more in fear of breaking something. But I managed to clean the scroll wheel decently enough for it to spin smoothly again.

Thank you for this excellent video! I was able to disassemble and clean my original G502 from august of 2015, after the scroll wheel got gummed up. I was blown away by how much gunk had collected inside the scroll wheel area.

was gonna buy a new mouse and then i saw this video 🥺 saved me 70$

my sniper button on the side broke, im quite happy that is is just a $8 part and i dont need to solder anything. thanks for the tutorial

yo my programmable mouse button just fell of but it doesnt seem to break or anything it just fell of so should i glue it or what

can i ues hair dryer to remove the glued bottom part ?

Thanks. Was able to fix my wheel ratchet button

what a well designed mouse!

Well, this helped me take the mouse apart and confirm that the left click switch is actually bad, not just dirty. It seems after 5 years, either the little Omron switch or the "pad" on the left click button that contacts the switch has worn down enough to remain flaky. It seems like placing a thin layer of a durable material over either surface would solve the problem. But I worry about it wearing or producing dust that would interfere.

Its much easier to take of slider pads if u heat up glue witha hairdryer

Fantastic video. Mine was full of grimey gunk.

The spring is for the mouse wheel click.

I want to do this cause my mouse has torouble holding left mouse and it really fucks me up but this just seems to much. I would probably end up breaking it before anything

thanks.. going to rebuild mine now.. what screw driver kit are you using looks really good

Guy must have the cleanest teeth known to man, with that brushing speed.

thank you so much i could not get mine back together

Honestly if you bought it second hand I would have cleaned the outershell only. No need for taking it apart. But very comprehensive video. Great work.

Finally the hair that has been stuck under the sensor is finally done xD the only thing i've mostly messed up is the smallest pad (i've started by it to see how it was) and struggled a but for separating the shell but everything else was fine!

thank's for the guide, had to do the same. Just small hint- springs, booth of them, comes under the weel in to the holes next to golden 3rd weel button. 9:34 above hand You can still see them in places. Booth sides of the weel button.

My g502 got some wine inside, the mouse still working but a bit drunk ..sometimes it doble clicks when I press one click and it feels weird is very annoying ... I was thinking to open up but it is worth it to try?

Hey man, for cleaning the mouse wheel, could I use anything else instead of an ultrasonic cleaner? I'm guessing I can't just water and soap them , but could I use isopropyl alcohol and maybe some toothpicks/cotton swabs?

Does anyone here know how to remove the mouse wheel? Mine doesn’t have the color on it anymore and you can see the copper plus it corroded pretty badly so I have to repaint it.

helped me a lot

I fix the middle button (wheel button: the tiny layer opf metal that bump) I cut the orange membrane e make it pump again. I really dont understand why is the only shitty switch inside

I give you some good advice friends, you can make a small hole in the sticker that goes underneath the mouse, so that the next time you open it to clean, it will be MUCH EASIER and you won't have to spend extra money on those stickers!

Can someone please help me? My logitech G502 causes over current on my computer how can i fix it?

Hey, I followed all the steps, connected the mouse to the usb port again and it seems like it's not connecting properly and I constantly hear the windows sound of unplugged usb ports. Any idea of what I did wrong? Thanks in advance

so the rubber on the thumb rest has split. i.e bent upwards from the base and holding on by ~4 mm near the aim button. Any advice oh now to glue this rubber part back together to put it in a usable state? The rubber on this thing is very brittle. Cheers

Dang my rmb switch was cracked. Idk how that could’ve happened. Might’ve come from an old fall and just got progressively worse.

I have a question, if you want to clean the g502 mouse buttons inside, can you take apart them?

Super nice video, thanks ! I will order new pad though before i open it. My right mousebutton isnt working that good anymore, in shooter games i cant keep my scope, sometimes i cant even scope at all :( *mesad* hope i can fix it. If you have any advice other than cleaning let me know :)

Thanks a lot!

cool video

Thanks mate I did open and replace the left and right switch, now my mouse wheel does not scroll locked or unlocked any idea? Would it be the mouse wheel sensor?

I have a question, I have a similar mouse, and the click function has been damaged when pressing the mouse wheel, I have disassembled it and I see that the gold sensor that does that function does not click anymore, what can I do?

so, I have a g502 and disassembled it to fix an issue with the scroll wheel toggle. I put the two springs back where they were. I somehow ended up with a third spring and have no idea what it's for. Any thoughts?

I can't take out the top two screws. I have a Protheus Spectrum. Unlike the bottom screws, the top screws apparently don't have the + shape, all I can see is a dot in the center... what to do?

I cannot get it open. This is impossible. So frustrating.

There is visable space on side of every pad clearly made to make taking off those pads much easier, you can even use fingers, but ofcourse it is better to do with something else

Where can I buy the pads replacement? What brand do you recommend?

You forgot to put back 3 springs that come with the mouse. 1st two are under scroll click, and idk about 3rd but there is one :)

maybe I didn't follow close enough, where should I put the small springs back into?

What is the metal wash bin called and where can I get one? Is it just used for plastics? Thank you in advance.

Where did you buy the replacement feet?

im using hot air at 120C to remove the mouse skates.

Can you share a link with your entire toolset please?

Oh man. My right click functionality in my G502 Hero seems to be going bad. I'll be aiming down sights in games, and it will inconsistently drop to hipfire, then come back to the sights. I was wondering if a good cleaning could fix this. But seeing how I'll probably need new skates is making me think I should just get a new mouse since cleaning probably won't guarantee restored right click function.

Great video. I have the G502 hero but my right click is starting to get dodgy... I'd like to think it's because it's dirty but deep down i know it's because Logitech switched from the japinese to the chinese clickers.

While taking it apart, was there any clear indication, what makes this mouse so heavy and is there something to be done about it?

I put the springs back in but the scroll doesn’t click !! Need help

You forgot to install back two springs under weel )

thanks much, perfect guide

I ruined 1 of 3 stickers so a partial success lol And there was a chunk of cat hair stuck in front of the wheel

i have a brand new g502 fresh out the box and im watching this for some reason, i just dont know why

Instead of peeling off the bottom pads, would it be better to just cut/drill holes in those pads where the holes are. Then we can just use the screwdriver through the holes. Of course, afterwards, those holes would collect dirt, but at least the pads would retain their original glue to the mouse.

Voiko noita vasemmalla olevia alempia sivupainikkeita puhdistaa millään ilman että purkaa koko höskän? Mulla lens kokikset uuden hiiren päälle ja nyt ne jumittaa ja jää alas-asentoon... Ja vitutus on valtava :D

My left click some times clicks more than once and I often can’t hold a click+drag for very long (less than a second) Gonna take it apart and see what’s up, but I fear it’s just too old :^( Wish me luck

If your going to clean your g502 I dont recommend re-using your original rubber skates and spending the 20 dollars for a glass pair off Amazon

Can't believe I just ordered a scroll wheel for a mouse.

lol thanks for letting us know there's a cable that'll be broken if you're not careful for taking it apart. Would've really liked to know that beforehand and now it's broken. I don't know how you possibly took it apart without brute forcing it because it's impossible. THANKS FOR THE BROKEN MOUSE

Hello I want to ask one thing my 502 wont work if I launch a game and switch to desktop the right and left click wont do anything . It sometimes starts scrolling up and down it self by this I mean to say is that It wont work one switching from one to another application

The heck happenned to your thumb?

Can i use a regular screwdriver?

dont get the hero. had 2 , both fail got the g502 lightspeed and will see in a month if will fail

Went to Best Buy and bought a new one and returned the old one in the box the next day I ain’t got time for this 😂

You forgot putting back the 2 springs...

looks like darth vader's mask

The weakest feature of this mouse and many Logitech mice are the pads below, that simple pad that feels like black duct take can get loose with time, and without them, it feels rough on the mouse pad. I dont know why didn't they just make them out of plastic.

is every one going to go over the fact he is cleaning the computer baord with water and soap

😂

So it's a shit product that can't be disassambled by a user.

;( My eyes the mouse feet ;(

und dann steht tagelang das Wasser drin. Anstatt die Schale komplett zu zerlegen OMG

how stupid all these unpacks, reviews and showdowns look with black gloves, as if they are demonstrating Rolexes, but in fact the video shows a bad mouse with a cost of 300 rubles and a brutal overprice

this will destroy the rubber pads..

Slow video, next.

this mouse is low quality shit.
