      @@catalyst9905 I see, that's frustrating for sure! First you should make sure your console and controller are up to date by doing the following:
      Press the Xbox button to open the guide.
      Select System > Settings > System > Updates & downloads.
      Select Console update available.
      Then I would suggest doing a hard reset of your console and if it's still not working.
      You can do this by doing the following:
      Turn off the Xbox One console by pressing the  Xbox  button  on the front of the console for about 10 seconds until it shuts down completely. 
      Unplug the console's power cable. Wait 10 seconds. Be sure to wait 10 seconds. This step resets the power supply.
      Plug the console power cable back in.
      Press the  Xbox  button  on your console to turn on the Xbox One.  
      You can also then try resetting your console by doing this:
      Press the Xbox button to open the guide.
      Select Settings.
      Select All Settings.
      Select System.
      Select Console info & updates.
      Select Reset console.
      On the Reset your console? screen, select Reset and keep my games & apps. This option will reset the OS and delete all potentially corrupted data without deleting your games or apps.
      The last thing you can check is make sure there are no other controllers turned on when you have the console on and no buttons are pressed at the same time.
      I'm going to check and get back to you and see if there's potentially a wiring issue internally in the controller that might be able to be fixed. I'll message back when I find out!

    Could you lighten the video some? It's currently too dark to see detail. Also, to those watching, when purchasing new bumpers, buy one that includes the center piece that encircles the power button (as the one in this video did) - I bought one that didn't and had a heck of a time getting the two pieces to fully click together.

    • @Gamenetics
      @Gamenetics  5 лет назад +55

      Okay so If you've tried fixing this already with the tutorial, there may be another problem. You may have a problem with the circuit board rather than the external hardware. We currently do not have a tutorial on this and no one else on RUclips does either, we are going to work on coming out with a video solving this problem!
      If you want to give it a shot yourself, you are going to need a soldering iron. You are going to have to desolder the 4 points on the circuit board to the bumper.
      Then you will be able to pull out the bumper and replace it as well as solder the 4 pins back. This would more than likely fix your issue.
      Unfortunately sometimes there's an issue with the circuit board. :/

    I didnt have the same issue (broken part) but I used the video as a tutorial to open the controller and try to fix it for myself. It kinda worked, the main problem is that the piece of plastic that holds the RB, LB SYNC buttons is very flimsy. Overtime it flexes and deforms causing it to lose "tension" and resulting in needing to press the buttons harder for them to respond. Biggest problem here is a poorly made controller by microsoft. With all that said, great video man, helped me a lot!

      There is a little piece of plastic which holds one end of the button in (extremely small). Its on the body of the controller, once that is broken you are screwed, you have to either put some tape to hold it in place or replace that entire plastic piece which holds all the buttons and thumb sticks in place. The other option would be to replace the controller.

    Not sure if this will work for others, but it worked good for me.
    My RB wasn’t working unless I really pushed down on it. I pushed it in multiple times in a row, hoping to adjust something inside. I read another comment on a video that told me this. You do not have to take anything apart from your controller to do this. Hold the trigger (the one on the same side as your bumper) all the way in and hold it. There should be a gap between it and the bumper. Blow very hard in that gap for 5-10 seconds.

    • @Gamenetics
      @Gamenetics  5 лет назад +10

      Hey there!
      Can't imagine how frustrating that would be especially just after 3 months!
      The problem might not be your bumpers, it could be a motherboard issue. There may be a short in your motherboard for the lb and rb buttons, but you won't know until you open it up and see what's going on - unfortunately some xbox controllers can have these issues.
      So for replacement parts, you can generally find them on Amazon, but if you search "White rb lb replacement bumpers" you should be able to find something - what I saw was you might have to buy a set of white parts to get the bumpers.
      We are looking at adding replacement parts to our website possibly in the future.

    Thanks for the video, very useful. A trigger just popped off whilst playing rocket league! I found it easier when putting the new triggers in to have the trigger and the Xbox logo section separate, place the triggers in first and then once they are clicking correctly slide the logo bit in making sure the rear is in place properly and then clipping it into the two holes on the top and front. I have the same controller, the Lunar White which is great with the rear textured grip whereas at the time the others were just plastic.

    • @robertwalsh1401
      @robertwalsh1401 5 лет назад

      hey, this was a problem with mine too, if you see how the bumpers work, when you press the bumper down, it moves the whole plastic peice to hit a tiny button right above the start or select button, in your case and mine, its the left bumper, so its the tiny button above the select button. i took a small flat head and moved that button slightly closer to the plastic piece that hits it, but BE CAREFUL cause if you snap that button off its not gonna work at all unless you figure out a way to stick it back on there. its still slightly weird on my controller, it feels like the plastic piece slips past the button sometimes, but it works WAY better than trying to mash the button as hard as i can during a game. as long as i dont mash it like i had to before, and press it with normal force, it works just like my right bumper. hope this helps
