How To Fix A Broken Bumper (LB/RB) | Xbox One Controller | Xbox Repair DIY

Ойындар

In this video, I will show you how to repair a broken left or right bumper on your Xbox One controller
There is always the potential that something can break on an Xbox One Controller. One of these items that can break quite easily is the Left Bumper (LB) or Right Bumper (RB), aptly named the bumpers on the Xbox One Controller. When the bumpers on an Xbox One Controller break, it requires opening of the controller (watch my videos on how to open an Xbox One Controller here: • How to Open and Reasse... ).
Once you can open the controller and access the buttons it is a lot easier to fix.
There are two potential ways to fix an Xbox One Bumper when it breaks. You can either buy new casing or fix your Xbox One Controller bumper by gluing the pieces back together. Depending on the condition of your button, you can go with either one.
Here is how you can repair a bumper that has broken by using Super Glue or Gorilla Glue.
Replacement Xbox One Controller Buttons: amzn.to/2eJOwgB
Xbox One Controller: amzn.to/2fb4AfD
Xbox One Controller (Elite): amzn.to/2eUtcFP
What You'll Need:
- A broken Xbox One Left Bumper (LB) or Right Bumper (RB)
- Super Glue
- Patience
What You Need to do:
Step 1: Remove the broken bumper from the Xbox One Controller. Don't know how to open a controller? Check this out:
Step 2: Remove the broken bumper piece from the Xbox One Controller
Step 3: Put super glue on top of the area where we will connect the bumper and the broken piece of the bumper
Step 4: Slowly place the broken piece of bumper on the glue
Step 5: Hold the glued piece in place for 60-90 seconds
Step 6: Place a very thin layer of glue around the outside of the cracks to secure the piece in place (see tip below - don't put on too much!)
Step 7: Allow to try
Step 8 (optional): Test!
Tips and Tricks:
- Don't put too much glue on the broken bumper piece as this may prevent the piece from fitting back into the controller
- Make sure the super glue has plenty of time to dry (10-15 minutes after you hold the piece together)
- If you're looking to get a new color controller, this is a great time to do it. You can buy tons of cool controller cases here: amzn.to/41BUFn9
- Be careful with super glue. There is a reason it is called Super Glue!
- You can test to see if your bumper is working by putting on the circuit board with the LB and RB bumpers and the front of the shell. Clip on the bumper and you should be good to go!

    For people who have a LB or RB that clicks, but only works if you press it way too hard: *Saw this here in the comments, didnt believe it, but still tried* Open the 2 pannels on the back. After you've done this, hold the trigger so it will make some space to your bumber. Now blow very hard in that hole. Believe it or not, it worked for me. Must've been too much dust/dirt there... Reply with a confirm if it worked for you too, so people can see.

    As someone else has already said, if you have a bumper and you have to click really hard to use it, here is the easier solution. 1. Don't even take apart your controller, just take your battery pack cover off. 2. There should be two rectangular holes near the left and right bumper. If your controller was the same as mine and not completely broken, then just blow into it and it should work. (Mine was just dirty I guess)

    +Jacob Mikeska Wow - interesting. You didn't even take the outer shelf off? Sounds like the clips on the bumper that latch on to the frame of the controller have broken, or the pieces of plastic that jut out from the frame of the controller have been filed down/broke off. Depending on what it is, you will need to take a different approach. Try taking a look at my How To Open an Xbox One Controller video (kzread.info/dash/bejne/Y4WCurSJnbCseKw.html) and see if you can diagnose which problem it is. That will give you a better idea if you just need to buy new buttons, or an entirely new controller.

As much as I think the 360 controller was way better, if the One controller would actually last more than 5 months, I'd just deal with it. The really should go back to the drawing board and make a product that's actually worth the money you pay for it as I agree with you, the tiny bits of plastic the bumpers rest on are so weak it's a joke. Controller that retails for £40 that you have to resort to using super glue to fix it...... That in itself is a joke.

    Yeah I've put up with the controller myself because it took me so long to give in and get myself a new one. I'm sure they are very aware of this terrible product they're ripping us off for. And yeah I've disassembled these controllers the material to hold up these bumpers and triggers etc. Looks and feel like something that just won't last you that long if you spent a decent amount of time gaming like I do. And yeah the idea of having to use super glue doesn't sit right with me at all. These things should have much better durability for the prices they right at.

    These controllers are complete crap. My controller, my friend Andrews controller along with his brothers controller LB button broke. When Andrew got the elite and his LB eventually broke in about the same time the one did with the original controller. I don't want to pay $60 or even $150 for the elite if it's just going to break. For the price their asking these controllers should not easily break, especially the elite controllers. They test these products durability before the sell it to consumers, and know they are overpricing a product not worth its price. Sadly we are forced to purchase and re-purchase hardware that is meant to take abuse. Not to mention Microsoft is the only option we have to purchase our controllers. since other company's do not pride themselves on quality. But tend to cater the casual/younger audience.

    @@sethh8892 I don't think people are smashing their controllers as much these days, they've become too expensive. However, making cheap easily breakable shit is a practice that so many companies capitalize on because it saves money for production and since the controllers are prone to breakages, the demand for more controllers stays. So long as a company has the power and recognition of microsoft, they can get away with doing shit like that. That's just capitalism, it all equates to more money and expansion, which, as a business, is their priority. Shouldn't expect anything less from these types of companies. They test the durability of the controllers in a lab as well btw, they are very aware of how easily their product can break.

    Marcelo Aguirre Well no, I took a air duster, it's basically compressed air and if you pull it's trigger there gets a shit load of air out of it at a rapid speed to blow everyting clean, about 5 bucks a can, just held its tip close to the trigger and blew for about 10 seconds, after that the problem was gone, just some filth that I blew away

    same exact bumber too i feel like this is a design flaw as mine still works but it cant be pushed from the side you have to push it straight down which isnt ideal while in the middle of a fire fight when you rely on a grenade (or whatever that button is maped to) to save you and it doesnt work. my butto hangs just like yours when its upside down/ partialy tilted and from what i can see, the piece of plastic that holds the button down to prevent this has snapped so it cant be repaired that easily but it can if you just get a replacement bumper and follow a guide on how to open up an ELITE controller

    For me, the lever tip didn't break off, the entire piece just didn't have a snug fit. The opposite bumper's lever tip is flush against the button. What I had to do was cut out some small strips of electrical tape to pad the tip (I just cut them to the entire lever arm's shape, long and thin). Three layers was enough for the gap I had, to also retain the click.

Because of your video and the other 2 videos along with it, I was able to do all of the above and repair my controller myself and learned a lot along the way! Worked perfectly! The only thing is I didn't have super glue which I totally thought I did but I improvised and used nail polish to repair my plastic pieces along the way. It was easy to apply and has worked great since! Thanks again!

Likely Microsuck saw your video and redesigned the next batch to suck even harder. #PlannedObsolescence They make it so flimsy on purposes. I hate them. There many other examples of planned obsolescence that I noticed when I took mine apart.

So I ran my finger across the top and it felt like it was slightly pushed in above where that axle would be. I grabbed it and wiggled it and pulled at it and the button snapped back into place and is working perfectly again.

    *Important* If your bumpers are clicking louder than normal and sometimes doesn’t register as being pressed blow really hard into it. I know it sounds weird, I also thought this, but I didn’t want to take my controller apart as it’s an elite series 2 and cost a lot so I tried it and it worked. I saw it on reddit.

When I press the bumpers with a very light pressure, I hear the click but the button doesn't work (If I click normal it works, but I'm afraid it will get worse). I noticed when the controller is in its box, the bumpers keep all the time pressed. I wonder if that wasted the bumpers and contributed to its "malfunction".
