Helped me fix/clean out a gunked up controller Thank you!

[dittom]

Thank you, this helped me fix my stick drift and fix my loose battery

[byronn]

Omg thnx. This was the 4th video I watched and the only 1 that showed me the little black piece that fell out while i was trying to get out a screw that fell into the controller

[egggrenade]

Thx for the tutorial. Now i can clean my controller.

(Edit: be careful when taking out the battery as you can bend the pins out the hole. to bend them back in just take something with a fine tip and push the pins back into the hole(

hello, i am having some problems with the steps from 0:49, all the screws is there seem like they're glued. none of them will even hit at unscrewing no matter how hard and/or steadily i turn the screwdriver
think you have any advice? thanks

How can I apply my ribbon cable perfectly, also is the white ribbon cable responsible for A, B, X, Y & Also Dpad. Please respond

First 2 screws are impossible to remove for me. I think I stripped them. 😕

[summerrose]

Good video so backstory some water spilled on my controller and idiot me thought of shaking the water out. I disassembled the controller and saw no water damage but the remote before i disassembled was glitching and the controller wasnt working. I pulled everything apart and put it together and now not even the lights are turning on 😢😢. Help?

[JasonGardner-mo]

Apparently there's literally zero reviews for a standard switch controller, so can I ask if it's a similar disassembly at least?

[PaulVolante]

At 2:26, I'm having trouble removing the board. I've removed all of the screws and vibration thingies, but it seems like there is tension near the top left part of the board/the area near the USB C connector. Anyone have this issue too? It seems like it comes out very easy in the video, but it isn't for me.

[rfuentez]

What can I do if the white pieces do not have screws and I cannot remove them by pulling?

[panchopantera]

where do you get that joysticks ???? they look good

[billballmar]

There is no instructions on the wiki site for a Pro controller.

Excuse me, do you know how I can find a replacement for the gray ribbon battery cable? I've been trying to find a compatible cable or the exact cable but I can't find anything
