Is the new Xbox Elite Controller worth it? Ka KaneOperation
I have a problem with my Elite Controller, namely the RB button requires more pressure than the LB button. That means I use much more force on the right than on the left and I don't know why. Do I have to open the controller? Or what?
That would really help me.
I can't say exactly why that is, but I have experience with a similar problem myself.
The two bumbers are held together by a narrow plastic bridge that meets in the middle of the controller. This was broken for some inexplicable reason so that the right bumber only rattled around loosely and to use it, only massive pressure helped.
Of course, I don't know whether this is the case with you. Sure you could open it and possibly find out what the problem is, but then you are not sure that it can be fixed.
My tip would be, if there's still a warranty (2 years), to first contact the dealer and then directly to Microsoft later. If there's no longer any guarantee, Microsoft may be accommodating.
So with me it is not uncontrollably loose, because you can still hear the click noises. But what comes to mind is that he was often trapped and I always pulled him out. Do you know now what could be broken with the bar?
No sorry I can't help you there.
As I said, guarantee or hope for goodwill. Otherwise just look for yourself.
Got an update, it looks like you had the right one. I can lift my RB button with a little finger, it does not fall out of the housing, but it is much easier to get it out than the LB button.
The only thing I still need is an 8 torx and the spare part.
