- A very satisfying Nintendo Switch Pro Controller (copy) repair!
This was pretty cool, using a PS4 marked part, sold for an XBOX one controller!
If you have issues, its definitely worth having a go!

Thanks you lovely people, and keep on tinkering!
ohh i think u missed a leg at 19:22
I will double check the video, but I was paying Metroid Dread last night for a few hours and it was perfect 😂
Maybe it's a shield leg
Yes, phew, electrically it will not make a difference, physically, maybe 😂
Now I know how easy it is to fix I'll just use it as is, I bet it will last a lifetime like this anyway 🤞🤞
Great work, I admire your ability to work inside other projects on your desk. I picture you strutting into the kids room, flinging the controller at them and saying "go on test that"
Pretty much 😂
Usually it's DON'T BREAK IT AGAIN, DO YOU THINK I'M MADE OF MONEY? WHY DON'T YOU RESPECT YOUR THINGS etc etc. They aren't really listening. I decided to keep this controller in the secret drawer just for me to use 😂
@@backofficeshow "DO YOU KNOW HOW LONG I HAVE TO WAIT FOR PARTS FROM CHINA FOR THIS"
I HAD TO WORK FOR 3 DAYS TO PAY FOR THAT CONTROLLER! YOU KNOW THE COST OF EVERYTHING BUT THE VALUE OF NOTHING!
My Pro Controller is doing the exact same thing.. Thank You for the video..
One of these days I'd love to see you tackle a one-handed controller. Kinda like that one ASCII made for the SNES and PS1!
One handed controllers are definitely Ben Heckendorn's gig. I bet he'd be more than happy to share knowledge for the nobel cause of getting more disabled people gaming!
We were all shouting Ben Heck at the screen when Dr A mentioned one handed controllers.
you are very good with the iron solder, i tried change my controller analog stick and broke it, you done a good work
Oh no
Is the battery in the fake controller original Nintendo battery? Couldn’t see it good in the video.
Ben Heck has made loads of videos on making one handed controllers.
That's cool! I probably won't watch them, I like to see if I can solve things by myself, I guess that's the hobby for me 😂
But if I was asked to make one for someone, I would definitely watch that and look up everything on the subject 🤣
@@backofficeshow He does them as a side business so if you get stuck for how to do something, definitely give his video's a once over.
what exactly are you using here to remove the flux at 12:48? Also how do you reconnect the end of the wires that are supposed to be connected to the rumble motors(not the end attached to the board)? Mine fell off while I was cleaning my controller.
What is that plunger tool you're using? Is it to suck off the solder, that you're unsoldering? Also, that temp you said, 320? Is that f or c?
Either way, your video was extremely helpful. You made it very approachable.
It's called a solder sucker. 320c
Would you have a link to purchase a good ribbon cable that connects the two halves? Mine is chard because my daughter decided to clean it by sticking it under the faucet.
I have this exact board, but it stopped working over a year ago for anything other than USB. Yours has just always worked? I have two of them, still work for PC at least :)
The analogue sticks definitely have gone down in quality over the years. Can't remember drift issues and breakage were as much of an issue with the consoles up to the X360.
I don't really recall seeing drift on anything other than the switch joycons, and I can kinda forgive them, they are so intricate. But these really should last a decent length of time. I'm surprised they have not made a version that replaces the pots with optical encoders or hall sensors, they could do this as an aftermarket mod for sure
@@backofficeshow Xbox 1 controllers apparently do have drift issues too, although it doesn't seem as bad as the joycon's. Dreamcast controllers use hall effect sensors, and as uncomfortable as they are, they are very robust. The new 8bitdo Ultimate Wireless controller use them as well. I think I'll buy one for my PC when they are released in november.
They sell the controllers for so much money. I doubt there going to have a bother fixing it. Luckily the spare parts are cheap 😂
pity nintendo pulled the ability to use wii u controllers on the switch.i need to get a soldering iron to replace the card slot on my spare ds
I didn't know that that they ever worked, not sure how I missed this 🤣
@@backofficeshow i still have a wii u but use the controller on the pi4 as the rumble works well on playstation games
The controller looks weird!!
Vibration motors are smaller ,and pcb is totally different
This madmen. Making a black mark on the positive…
BLACK IS NEGATIVE!!!!
What would a white mark be?
@@backofficeshow🤔Data positive, perhaps.
Why are you so easily alarmed?
