[@RideByAquib]

Thanks a lot! This worked on my B170 mouse too. Although, I had to improvise a bit - adding a *little* WD40 was not enough to fix my scroll issue so I re-opened the mouse and then blasted the entire wheel assembly with a generous spray - that did the trick! 😜
Also, there's a third latch under the battery that needs to be released to get the thing apart - this is not shown in the video.

[@tvu]

Agree w/ you. There's a third latch under the battery. My logitech mouse model is M170.

[@noenergybunny]

It worked! Also: I saw some dust gunked up by the scrolling mechanism that I think were also to blame for my scrolling problem. Cleaned that up with some Qtips and put WD-40 by there too. Works flawlessly now!

[@charmaineboo6883]

Really struggled to get the back open because I didn't have the right tool, but a pen worked like a charm. Also used isopropyl alcohol since I didn't have anything else at hand and my scroll now works again. Thank you!

[@vishnuvijay5628]

Thank you so much! Like another commenter mentioned, there is a latch under the battery housing visible when the battery is out of course, that needs to be released. But the tutorial works like a charm. You saved me good money, my friend :) Works just like new!

[@vroonsolanki8675]

My B170 Logitech got scrolling issue and I followed the steps as shown by you in the video.
and now its working flawlessly. Thanks a lot sir. you saved my money.

[@ItsMyLifeAsh]

I had this mouse for 5 yrs, thought of buying new one due to scroll issue, after this video I fixed it and it's working again, I used sanitizer and perfume spray and it worked... thanks u saved my day

[@singhvikas101]

Worked like a charm, i was working with this condition of mouse since the covid lockdown started.... more than a year.... was thinking of purchasing a new one but then thought it would be a good idea to see if this can be fixed and voila! :) thanks a ton

[@FooMantis]

Fantastic video! This helped a lot.
I also found on the right side of the wheel assembly, I had a lot of dust and hairs stuck in the grease grooves on that side I had to pick off with tweezers.
Edit: to clarify, my main issue was my scroll wheel was skipping/rubber-banding and as a result scrolling was very erratic.

[@pupaktube2825]

Thank you, I was so annoyed by the scroll problem, easy to follow explanation and now everything works! Cheers! :)

[@TheSmithing321]

Thanks!! WD40 worked like a charm to fix my M170 scrolling issue. I have this mouse for a year and a half now but the problem started like 4 months ago and I never really tried to solve it in a way other than reinstalling drivers over and over. You saved me some bucks and really deserve more, sir. Thanks again.

[@ty-px3mf]

It works!! I've even consider to get a new one, among all those video in TH-cam only yours work for me. Thank you so much.

[@pig_wrestler]

k, this worked! thanks fella. there's one more clip to release underneath the battery compartment, which i don't think's mentioned in the video, and I found out the the hard way. getting the bottom off is a pain. also, remember there're clips at the front that have to be release when taking the bottom off. these front clips also have to be in place before you push in the rear clips, or the buttons will be suspended (you can force them in afterwards, but it's not ideal).

[@sakthivelmuthusamy5851]

Felt the pain... Should have read comment too...

[@adriangps9290]

This comment should be higher up. There is a CLIP UNDERNEATH the battery compartment. Thank you, Andy Sanderson!

[@garyvdw3064]

Almost broke the stupid clips, lol. Thankfully I came back to the video to read the comments. Thx mate.

[@vikaskumarprajapati774]

Great 👍

[@Ahxmde]

THANK YOU MAN! my wheel finally got fixed, you deserve a like.

[@jamesdalusung7594]

Used a contact cleaner to clean the mechanism and the board. Now it works like a new one. Thank you for this!

[@gajendranegi7721]

WD 40 works as electricity insulator as well as rust remover. In this case it could have failed the mouse clicks at all. However I still tried even I had the mouse under warranty. (Logitech warranty sucks) . Worked for me as well. Use limited quantity and clean the other part of circuit before you plug it in. Thanks .This VDO helped me gain confidence to try on my under warranty mouse.:) Don't try WD 40 on under pressure welds like AC. It will slowly remove rust/loose the welding and gas will leak.

[@yogananda.merugu]

I was about to order new one but just thought to check any fix for it in TH-cam. Thanks it worked for me. I had to clean the dust and did apply coconut oil😂 to scroller. There was one more latch behind battery and sometimes we have push it as well. Thanks bro.

[@SriRam-iv9so]

I didn't have WD40, I used Motul C1, my motor cycle's chain cleaner and just few drops 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍IT WAS LIKE BACK TO NEW, VERYYY grateful to u man, THANKS A LOT❤️

[@streyngthz]

Thanks a lot! My scroll just broken after falling from my desk and I tried very hard to open the mouse because I can't find the screws (but turns out that it uses "tabs" instead). Now with a little glue I can fix it back to normal

[@SL9SH]

mine took several oilings and tries, but in the end it worked! thank you!

[@ankitverma7051]

Pro Tip - If you Dont have this Gas , Use Hand Sanitizer as an Alternate. .. Love From India 🇮🇳❤

[@Annie-rn8mp]

Thank you. I did with hand sanitizer and mouse wheel became very smooth. lol

[@akarshanbatra4391]

Thanks for your tip it really worked well

[@kurniafitri7226]

Thank you so much for your tips I can use my mouse again

[@cesardeleon237]

you were so careful. I'm not a patient, I stuck the straw right in there. mini spritz. but now works thanks man. I thought I had to clean the wheel itself.

[@arjungr6516]

OH my good god this was a life saver for me i did not have WD-40 at home but i had used a lens cleans cleaner and it works well. Thank you for this awsome guide.May this video reach to all the ppl with this problem.

[@TablaLarga]

PERFECTO! Mi scroll estaba fallando mucho, por ejemplo, subía y bajaba cuando solo quería bajar. Hice lo del video y funciono a la perfeccion! Muchisimas gracias!

[@butchib0y1]

Amazing it works.... My scroll dosnt work at all but after applying WD40, it is working again. Thank you so much

[@tvu]

Thanks!! This helped me fix my wheel not responding after I spilled coffee on the mouse (My170). Agree with @Ride By Aquib. There's a third latch under the battery, that needs to be released to get the top cover off.

[@yogeshykvOfficial]

Simple but and effective solution I thought I have to get a new one.
Thank you!!

[@edvinmartinez4765]

Holy cow!! This solved my scrolling problem. Thanks!

[@mickeyackermann1497]

Thank you for this video. Fix the same mouse of mine via same method mentioned in the video. However, WD40 was not available so I used 2-3 drops of Petrol and worked like a charm.

[@umangtaneja]

I watched this video just when I was about to throw my mouse away. The scrolling was a bit funny. Applying WD 40 in the right place really helped. It hasn't fully fixed the problem, but is not usable anymore. Thanks for sharing.

[@vilasbansode2095]

not usable?

[@rhea3612]

It was a pain removing the cover (which is not the vids fault), but everything works now! Thanks, you've stopped me from having to buy a new M170 mouse.

[@mohnishpujari3614]

This just saved me 10 EUR and all I had to do was clean the dirt and oil it. Thanks a lot!

[@abdulkayum3547]

Thank you, I was so annoyed by the scroll problem, easy to follow explanation and now everything works perfect.Love from Bangladesh❤.

[@Dorddis]

OMG THANKYOU SO MUCH!!!!
I finially managed to open it and WD40 fixed everything!!

[@vinitkavalekar3979]

Thanks a lot for the video. Very helpful and effective. My scroll was not working properly. I just followed the steps in the video and now it working perfectly fine. Thanks a lot !!!

[@apollohighnumber]

Works 100% perfectly.
You can also use nail polish remover instead of WD-40!

[@yegneswaranm5103]

I didn't believe this would work...but it works!!!thanks man

[@akshaynavadia9495]

I got scroll issue in my mouse B170. Thanks for the video, it started working by just cleaning with an old tooth brush. :)

[@rashmiacharya2177]

Really good video and it works. First clean with soft brush on both side of wheel. Check. If problem still persists, then apply generous wd 40 spray.

[@raihanmohammedyasir5030]

Thanks, dude! this fix on my M170 too. however, I just got rid of the dust then it just worked perfectly fine.
thanks again

[@dharunkumar126]

THanks!! the scroll wheel got fixed by just spraying rubbing alcohol

[@saurabhchunekar5965]

very helpful. absolutely working for B170 mouse. Thank you.

[@elyprobles]

It's amazing how I was able to fixed the scroll wheel of my mouse with this video! I don't have WD40 so I used cologne (somebody commented here that cologne can be used so I just followed) It worked!

[@TechLifestyle]

Alcohol, isopropyl alcohol, petrol, spirit, etc. will also fix the issue, but only temporarily..

[@VikrantDwivedi]

@@TechLifestyle thanks brother
First I cleaned the mouse and scrolling corner
And
used hand sanitizer of 80% ethanol, just a single spray in between left button and mouse scroll
and
As it get sprayed on the circuit board too in ON condition, I got panicked about whether this whole mouse may gone short circuited!!!
But after cleaning
my mouse started scrolling properly
Thanks to you

[@user-lk4gq1su9x]

Thanks! This worked to fix the jumpy scroll issue on my M170 mouse!

[@jinchuriki397]

I dont have Wd40 so I sprayed my deo. A lot of it. Its working great now. Like a brand new mouse. This was great. Thanks a lot.

[@harsh.anadkat]

THanks a lot bro! I used car cleaning spray and it still worked!! saved a few bucks over a few mins!

[@NerdOfftheRoad]

Thanks for the video, let me quickly fix my scroll problem. Contact cleaner spray directly through the open hole of the metal cover also also work well.

[@junaidkamal]

You saved my M170 mouse and keyboard combo. Thanks

[@kokes182]

Thanks a lot, it worked for me, I had the scroll issue, so this method worked like a charm!! Thanks dude.

[@flparaujo]

Tenho um mouse dell que deve ter uns 10 anos, apresentou esse problema. Joguei algumas gostas de veja no scroll e deu certo. Nem precisou abrir. Precisa rolar o scroll para frente e tras algumas vezes, soprar e repetir. Deixei um pouco de cabeça para baixo no sol para secar.
iz por conta e risco. Boa sorte!

[@TharunMurugesan]

Thanks, man. Works perfectly well.

[@yuliastuti5915]

its works!!! bunch of thanks! hopefully, all good things happen to you..

[@krishnachaitanya4220]

Thanks a lot. This helped. In my case I just cleaned the dust with a dust blower air pump. and it helped. Btw, there was third latch under the battery.

[@claudiaparziale6212]

Thank you! it was very helpful, but I had some problems opening the mouse with the screwdriver

[@shridhargupta5267]

Thank you! It worked with a simple regular cleaner liquid. You saved my hard earned money.🙂

[@oguzdz]

This worked on my M170! Thanks a lot

[@GameR-hj6vv]

[@latestactionmovies107]

This real helps for opening, make sure when opened clean cursor ring with earbuds so the scrolling works proper

[@elhermeneutico]

Pues yo intenté abrirlo y no pude. Luego, ya frustrado, decidí seguir usando el ratón sin la rueda... ¡y la rueda ya funcionaba! De una u otra forma, este video sí me sirvió :D

[@KUPO510]

Amazing!!!! Cant believe it worked! Fixed the scroll problem! I was about to throw that crappy mouse lol

[@clairence2038]

[@devduttrangnekar9691]

good as new!! works like a charm!! thankyou

[@anujeetswain7368]

Worked thanks
Clean and oil the wheel sides🙌🏻

[@raj180380]

Nice video. You forgot to mention about middle lock of the mouse top. It's better to open the middle lock first and then the other two side locks. I spent half an house opening side locks but it did not open then I found out about the middle lock and after opening the middle lock side lock also opened with ease.

[@mr_robo98]

are you using 171?
cause in my M171 model i have this middle lock not sure about M170

[@_Mojitoo]

This was a very helpful video. Thank you!

[@kcocnahaob5620]

Thank you for this! I was about to throw out my mouse because the scroll key is not working all the time.

[@amosbanda9657]

[@dheenasagarramanathan9418]

Thanks a lot, I used vaseline gel instead wd-40, working fine for me

[@riteshvish123456]

Worked for me to fix the same mouse model. Thank you very much. God bless you.
As an alternative, I have used hand sanitizer 😊

[@BarelyFunctionalTK]

I just used the oil used for my mother's sewing machine and it worked ☠☠ thanks for the video :)))

[@ravinshk6]

Thanks man. You saved my money. I used ethanol instead of WD 40.

[@MobeenQureshi]

Thank you so much. You saved me from spending on a new mouse 😊

[@YEF169411]

Worked! Thanks a lot 👏🏼

[@xmrmeer]

Working 100%! I don't have WD40 so I use q-tips and alcohol to clean it. It works properly now! Thank you!

[@Fabulous1919]

Just brilliant. Saved my new mouse cost.

[@ma.clarissasicat104]
