    Thank you for your amazing guide to fixing this issue - removing a couple screws and clips is a lot cheaper than a new controller! :D

    This should be a lawsuit against microsoft. They purposely made the plastic piece thinner and have too much wiggle room in that space AND angled slightly at the contact point to easily break off after time of use and/or too much pressure at one time. Just wanted to confirm my suspicions after trying to fix my controller.

    This tutorial helped me, ordered a "repair kit" for like 8 bucks in amazon, had the screws and most buttons, had to repalce those bumpers, Right one was broken and it even was a brand new controller (3 months old only) and I fixed it in minutes, hardest part was pulling the bottom handles since I was afraid of breaking them apart, the rest is super simple.

    You are the first person to show an easy open method from the bottom of the controller, and I solved it in 2 minutes. Thank you.

      I'm not sure. I can't even remember. I decided to buy a different brand controller that has lasted me for like 8 months with thousands of hours played without stick drift.
      I bought a GameSir controller and I'll never buy an Xbox controller made by Microsoft until they actually give a damn about their consumers. Their controllers are easy to break and I don't feel like spending 60 dollars for 2-3 months of playing.

    My left bumper is acting like it’s being held in, when the button itself isn’t held in or stuck at all. Luckily, I have an old Xbox one controller and they are compatible with the new Xbox series S and X. I’ll just stick with the Xbox one controllers since the series S is trash. Had my old one for 7 years and I’ve had the new one 6 days and it’s already messed up.

      It depends but you won’t know until you open it. If the plastic bumper piece is chipped or cracked, then it’s an easy fix. I even saw someone use tape to lengthen the rod. However, if the plastic piece is fine, you have an issue with the sensor, which is what happened in my case. This seems to be unfixable. So I’m stuck to trading my controller in as a malfunction to GameStop.
