How to Put Xbox Series X/S Controller back together after fixing Stick Drift or Buttons
2Reassembling an Xbox Series X/S controller after fixing stick drift or buttons requires careful alignment to ensure proper functionality. Below is a concise guide to put the controller back together and place the covers back on.
Tools Needed:
T8 Torx security screwdriver
Plastic spudger
Small container with previously removed screws
Clean, well-lit workspace
Steps to Reassemble the Xbox Series X/S Controller:
1. Prepare the Internal Components:
Ensure the circuit board, analog sticks, buttons, and repaired components, e.g., cleaned or replaced stick modules, are properly seated.
Reconnect any ribbon cables, e.g., for vibration motors, by gently pressing their connectors into place. Use a spudger for precision if needed.
Verify that the D-pad, face buttons, A, B, X, Y, share button, and bumpers are correctly positioned in their slots on the top plastic cover.
2. Place the Circuit Board:
Align the circuit board in the bottom plastic shell, the part with the grips. Ensure the analog sticks, triggers, and share button fit into their respective openings.
Check that no cables or components are pinched or misaligned.
3. Attach the Top Cover:
Position the top plastic cover, housing the bumpers, sync button, and Xbox button, over the circuit board.
Align the bumpers, triggers, and sync button carefully, ensuring they sit properly in their slots. The cover should fit snugly over the board.
Press gently to snap the clips into place, starting near the bumpers and working around the edges. You may hear clicks as the clips engage.
4. Secure the Shells Together:
Place the bottom shell, with the circuit board and top cover, onto the main body of the controller.
Align the shells so the triggers, bumpers, and analog sticks move freely. Press firmly around the edges to snap the top and bottom shells together.
If the shells don’t close fully, check for misaligned components or cables and adjust as needed.
5. Reattach the Side Grips and Screws:
Place the plastic side grip covers back onto the controller’s handles. Align the clips and press until they snap into place.
Insert and tighten the four T8 Torx screws, two per side, into the holes beneath the side grips. Don’t overtighten to avoid stripping.
6. Replace the Hidden Screw:
Insert the T8 Torx screw into the battery compartment, center, near the top, and tighten it securely.
7. Test the Controller:
Insert batteries or reattach the battery pack.
Connect the controller to an Xbox Series X/S or PC via USB or wirelessly.
Test all buttons, triggers, bumpers, and analog sticks in a game or the Xbox Accessories app to ensure the stick drift or button issues are resolved and everything functions correctly.
Tips and Warnings:
Work slowly to ensure proper alignment and avoid forcing parts together, which could damage clips or components.
If the controller doesn’t function properly, reopen it to check for loose connections, misaligned parts, or debris.
Keep screws organized during reassembly to avoid confusion.
If you encounter difficulty snapping the shells together, use a spudger to gently guide clips into place.
