The mute button is a sanity saver.
You know what's better than a piece of music on a 1-ish minute loop? Someone talking through the process of what it's like to take things apart and put them back together. Where to poke things, where to avoid poking, effort needed, tightness of screws, etc.
Exactly I needed to find another vid after 3 min lmao
because everyone speaks the same language, right?
Great video! For anyone having issues with the joy sticks unscrewing use a hair dryer or heat gun on low to medium heat to melt the glue Microsoft used to install them. Found the answer buried in the comments so hopefully this helps someone.
you just unscrew it bud
@@E93RGY not on a brand new elite series 2 controller... 😆 Maybe if you bought a refurbished one or used one and someone else took it apart before you.
@@donwan7181 I think someone just jizzed on your joystick before they gave it to ya bud, never had to melt goo off mine.
Then you never bought a brand new elite series 2 controller. I have several and every one of them the joysticks are stuck on with glue.
How long should I use the hair dryer for
The hardest part of this whole process is the initial taking off of the faceplace. I went straight in without the hairdryer and ended up scuffing the top edges of my controller. Next time I'll be more careful.
Ah, so you have to heat it up before taking the faceplate off?
Thanks for this! I had to replace my RB button and your guide helped with the disassembly process more than any other video I could find.
Glad it helped!
Instablaster...
I appreciate the video. I was going to replace the buttons but this helped me realize it's more than I want to tackle lol
Riiight? Think I'll stick to changing the faceplate if I want a more personalized controller!
came to this channel months ago after getting extremerate shells for my joycons, and now you have helped me through yet another customization 🙏
Honestly I would just pay someone to do the installation for me or buy one customized if I could lol. Knowing me I would break my controller
It still a wise choice :)
@@ExtremeRate does it come with EVERYTHING you need? Like screw drivers? Ive wanted to do this but I dont want to go out a buy a seperate screw driver just for this
@@pinkorange4980 Yes the screw drivers are come with the buttons.
Send me your controller i will send you 2 in return
Its not easy , not to hard. But you must enjoy This to make it work out. If You dont enjoy learning This one topic ,then its not for you. I did er enjoy it.
I totally understand you are little scared , you must take your time into it , now when you successfully make this - enjoy it and you never send it back for service agin.
Also tie one topic is a great way to learn many similar things without a video next time. Even mice’s
I have damaged my faceplate, bumpers and ABXY so i bought the replacement. Replaced everything without any issues thanks to your guide. Thank you very much!
That moment when you do exactly what they did but end up breaking your bumper
Almost impossible to take my top cover off with that flimsy tool, couldn't even get it
There is some doubleside tape on the back side of the faceplate, please try to use a hairdryer to heat up the front case before prying it out
Fails to mention this at all.
@@ExtremeRate that’s stupid I’m finna return this shit I ain’t tryin brake a 200$ controller just for this
@Isidro Gonzalez Yes
I just want to say thank you for this video! I spilt big red on my elite series 2 and was hesitant about taking it apart but it got to the point to where I decided I'd try it and if it messed it up completely bc I'm not good with this types of things then I'd just buy another, well I fallowed this video step by step and took everything out cleaned it with a q tip and it feels like brand new again! Yeah the warranty may b void but o well if something breaks il just fix it and they didn't cover spills anyways!! Wish I'd of had a button kit handy but now I know how to do it!!!!
Congrats and thank you!!!
was it complicated or risky changing the buttons cuz it looks like it in this video lol
Just ordered all the parts for my custom build, I already know I’m gonna good something up but at least after watching this I’ll feel confident about doing it myself 👍🏻😂
This was a fantastic video! My controller looks great with these new gold buttons. I also had an issue with the faceplate, the rubber grip was coming off, so using your video I replaced that at the same time too. Thanks heaps.
Anyone struggling with the thumbsticks, find yourself some small, maybe (fishing hook removing) type pliers and just grab the lower part of the stick and give a go. Just don't over force it, go slowly and the glue will come loose. Just did this.
Removing the faceplate should be a lot harder then that. From my understanding its initially held down by "glue" of some sort. Here you made it look a lot easier then what should be expected unless that controller has been taken apart previously for video purposes.
You said it. Yes, there is some very thin double side adhesive foam on the back side of the front plate, which will make it hard to take apart. So we suggest you to heat up the faceplate with a hair dryer before you do the prying.
@@ExtremeRate Hey thanks, on that topic though, you guys sell any faceplates that have the rubberized grip?
@@RAMBOLOGY I'm afraid not for the current generation.
hairdryer fix everything
I didn't have an issue getting mine off at all, never been apart by anyone but me today but I also didn't really care how it looked when I was done I wasn't really rough but it came apart pretty easy
NEED THESE IN CHROME PURPLE!
Theres some in amazon
@@saulhernandez210 morning I I
@@saulhernandez210 not exact chrome purple, it’s purple blue for elite series 2
Don’t get the them. The chrome peeled off after 3 months
That plastic piece to pry the controller open sucks. Just kept bending
Hey I’m really struggling on the bit where you take the thumb stick caps off, it just doesn’t seem to turn at all, can anyone help?
Microsoft put glue on the sticks, so please try to heat up the base of the stick with the hairdryer before you twist it
@@ExtremeRate Thanks I’ve completed everything now but my right bumper doesn’t seem to work when I put the faceplate on, if I loosen the faceplate a little it works fine but it clicks back in quite easily, also my Y button is pretty unresponsive now.
@@danniemargetts456 Please try to fix the bumper's problem like this video shown ruclips.net/video/ZOMHZQOA-d8/видео.html And for the Y button, please reposition the rubber pad under the buttons, also clean up the black pads on that if it get dirt.
6mm Socket works amazing. Super easy!! ITs the standard for socket screwdrivers. I just used one of those and pressed down a bit
@@ExtremeRate You should provide sockets to remove the thumbstick covers. Standard socket screwdrivers work. Or at least put the info on your site or something, a lot of people have the thumbstick issue...
how did you pull off the RB and LB buttons there stuck on with clips
What are you guys waiting for? Answer his and atleast 4 other peoples question
the disassembly is similar to the regular xbox one s controllers if you've taken apart one of them
Black n Gold together is classy
This was so helpful. I broke my bumper trying to fix the lb switch and couldn’t find replacement parts for the elite 2 controller. Thanks
You are most welcome!
THE MUSIC NEVER CHANGES
emmmm
@@ExtremeRate can you repost with a better zoom please I don’t have that good on eye sight and no music please
So first off thanks for the terrible tools provided that messed up my entire grips of my controller. Second is anyone else having issues unscrewing the thumb stick base it isn’t explained at all how to do it easier mine are completely stuck even with trying to heat it up just bought a whole new button set just to be disappointed because I can’t even take my controller apart with these tools and the lack of information of the video I think it’s a shame the only video that looks good on how to do this turns out to not be explained and detailed more just wasted my money smh I put on the triggers and LB and RB and the LB and RB rub up against the front of my controller for whatever reason just a mess to be honestly haha
We are really sorry about that. We have no idea when Microsoft decided to put glue on the thumbsticks and for what reason, but as we bought at least 10 Elite 2 controllers, the thumbsticks can be easily took off. And one of our customer told us heat up the thumbsticks can be helped and we just take that. We feel sorry about the issue again :(
Brute force when the analog is stuck. Twist harder.
Anyone having problems with the LB being stuck down after everything is back together? Please help
The tabs on the sides of my bumpers are now broken and my cotnroller is useless. Thanks a lot for not mentioning them at all in your installation.
I had the same fear when mine were not coming off easy. Im leaving this comment here for anyone else following this guide....There are 2 tabs on the outside edge of each bumper holding in place. Please make sure you unclick this similar to the ones in the front. I found using the small screwdriver included makes it easy to reach them.
the only thing this video fails to mention are the 2 tiny clips on the outsides of the LB and RB buttons.
dude i wasted like 25 min trying to figure out why mine wouldn’t come off
@@rigidmelons4265 yeah, tiny gigantic oversight😢
Thank you so much for this video. It helped me fix my controller .
You are most welcome and we are glad to hear that!
Great and clear video! Thanks so much
You are most welcome! :)
I want to buy some but I’m so terrified
The installation difficulty is medium, the most difficult part for me is to take off the faceplate, we suggest you to heat it up with hair dryer before prying it.
its two elite 2 controllers modells, in the one modell you must do one thing a little diffrent, nice video anyway!
Its the part that is with the wireless connection button and trigger Lb & Rb. Can’t take them all off in one, must detached them in more moves part by part. I see in your video that you can lift them all away in one move. That’s impossible on my model. I was thinking it’s not possible it’s not the same model, but it isn’t.
I am facing the exact same problem. Did you find a solution to this? I had a feeling I was going to run into an issue.
@@neilrand90 Hi, yes i did, but its not so easy from here to explain, i am going to make a youtube video on my channel, but thats like 30 dayes from now. lets try the easy one for txt: its a middle side on the bak, and the other model u need to take of the part in the back then they will fall off at the same time. when i say middle part in the back i mean the point that is in the middle og left to right for far L to far R
idk if that helps? u need another video :) xD
I’ll try tonight.
@@neilrand90 Maybe i remember wrong. i must check in the weekend. now after thinking about it, i am not certain my memory was correct about how., cuz maybe i mix with the other model. I will update you. 1-3 dayes. sorry.
I found the same issue. Fix here: there is a "hook" on each side on the controllers holding the RB and LB buttons bar. Be careful, you can use the screwdriver to help release one side and then the other. This hook is placed right at the edge close to the triggers. Good luck !
I’m having a problem, and I totally understand if no one can help but I figured I would try: my right thumb stick just keeps turning and turning and won’t seem to come off. I think maybe the metal threaded rod it twists into came loose at the base and is spinning with it instead of staying still. Any tips?
It seems it's stripped. Then you have to pull the base when you spin it
@@ExtremeRate what do you mean pull the base? I'm having the same issue
Waiting for this to come, hopefully I don’t mess it up. I’ve got a broken elite so I’ll practice on that as a few of the buttons don’t work
Good luck!
how’d it go
Holy OMG wow factor!
I think I’m going to practice on my Series S controller first.
is there a place we can get professionals to change the cosmetics on our elite controllers?
Removing the joystick bases doesent work, the joystick caps being used to turn (unfasten) the joystick base, feels like its set in concrete it wont budge at all...and yes i tried turning it counterclockwise.
Thanks so much, I got my controller December last year and I’ve had a few problems with it my rb and lb were sticking and sometimes wouldn’t register so I
Took out the plastic spacer which worked for a while then got worse but today I decided to try take off the plastic lb and rb without looking up how to so it got stuck on top of the usb c port this video helped me to take apart controller and push it forward I am very greatful thanks
@@connorpayne2135 That's really great!!!
HARD TO REMOVE BUMPERS FIX!!! Im leaving this comment here for anyone else following this guide and is removing the bumpers ....There are 2 tabs on the outside edge of each bumper holding in place. Please make sure you unclick this similar to the ones in the front. I found using the small screwdriver included makes it easy to reach them.
The bumpers on my controller won't come off as easily as they did in this video, any ideas on how to get it off?
There are tabs on the outside ends of each bumper button, they can be tricky to unhook. They must have been broken off or missing in the video.
Thank you for this video.. ❤
I can't get the back cover separated from the controller. Yours looked like it cam apart a lot easier than mine did
Are you sure you've took all the screws off?
There's a screw thats kinda hiding behind a peice of paper
I found it. Thanks for the help
It's because there are multiple clips 2 on each side and 1 at the back then pull the back up an the front 2 will come out
I'm running into an issue - hopefully ExtremeRate or a fellow modder could help. When I install the small top plate (between LB and RB), it seems to jam the console/PC pairing button.
With the stock top plate, combined with either stock or ExtremeRate LB/RB, I can press the button and feel the click.
When the ExtremeRate top plate is installed, the pairing button seems to be jammed in an already-pressed state. It doesn't move, and there's no clicky button feel.
I've tried two different ExtremeRate button kits, with the same issue.
Has anyone else encountered this or know of a fix?
I'm going to try to take some measurements with a digital caliper to confirm, but I ran some rudimentary tests with a couple of spare pairing buttons and both the stock and modded top plates - I suspect the modded top plate's cutout for the pair button isn't quite wide enough to accommodate the button. As the button seems to be slightly tapered, the undersized cutout pushes the button in just enough to jam the button in a pressed state.
@@failswithtails Hi, we are sorry about the issue. We've got about 5 to 8 feedback about this kind of issue, but we have more than 10 pieces of Elite 2 controllers none of them have this issue with our buttons kit. So I suspect there is a small batch of Elite 2 controllers with a slightly different structure of the shell and buttons, which caused this issue. And we made this video ruclips.net/video/ZOMHZQOA-d8/видео.html Some customers resolve the issue some are not, please try it and let us know, thanks
I am currently having this issue. Did you find a fox by any chance? Been two years I see but about to grind down the button they sent me
Is there a non violent way to take the face of the controller off? I don’t want to leave marks on mine
Unfortunately, no :(
I can’t get these thumb sticks base off and I’ve tried using my hair dryer Could someone help me??
I set my hair dryer on high, and I only focused on the lower right thumbstick base. The main reason to remove it is because it can't fit through the octagon cutout of the blue circuit board; the other thumbstick has plenty of space. I heated it up for maybe 20-30 seconds, and then with the magnetic thumbstick cap, I firmly but slowly turned it to unscrew. The heat doesn't kill whatever adhesive is on the threaded connection - it only softens it. I later had to heat up the thumbstick base again when I wanted to screw it back onto the controller.
I accidentally ripped one of the little wires trying to unclip it to get to the buttons. Are there any replacement wires I can find? I put it all back and not sure what it's purpose was but I need that wire
Do you mean this? www.aliexpress.com/item/32999810899.html
My elite series 2 won't let me remove the lb/rb and I can't unscrew the joystick caps :(
Ordered chrome an installed it an took apart twice.. but the synce button isn't working at all
Please check if there are any extra paint on the sync button, it happens sometime for the chrome because the UV coat is thick. If it happen, please sand the interfered paint off. We are sorry about that.
@@ExtremeRate shit happens thanks for getting back. still think Y'all a good company. Juat wish the bumpers did break so easy
@@jtcattanio Thanks for your understanding bro! And sorry for the late reply because we were on holiday, but we've got back to work already! :D
Those little plastic things keep breaking and the faceplate of the controller is moving exactly 0.0000mm. How do i get a refund?
Did everything step by step in the video and the controller turns on but none of the buttons work anymore
My numbers won't click the right sorta but I cer get the left to work
Joysticks won't unscrew. Keeps popping off before I can twist and I already have it taken apart I don't wanna put acessive force on it. Help?
My faceplate won’t go back on the front goes on put sides won’t go back on whe. I take the internal stuff out it goes back on but not when everything is there
Ladies and gentlemen my right stick no longer fits
i thought mine left didnt fit but it’s alr
It’s only the elite series controller bumpers that at break for me or give me issues in general. The first edition controller made the bumper’s bar twice as flimsy and curved made of cheap plastic- VERY breakable. then for the series 2 controller they used the same bumpers they used for the standard Xbox controller and the nipple parts STILL break off BECAUSE THEY STILL USE PLASTIC!
It must be nice to have everynscrew loose and the joysticks loose also. Just fucked up my right joystick trying to take it off. It is nowhere near as easy ass they make it look.
Bought these to because my LB didnt work, after i changed the bumbers now my
RB dont work either, had to change back to original, bad product...
Too bad you can melt the plastic around the controller before those buttons come lose, if they ever do. Try vice grips/pliers and the old button you will use.
my thumbsticks Do not just twist off like that. Anything to help?
i guess you're using standard xbox controllers, this is for elite controllers.
Heat up the base of the thumbstick a bit by hairdryer before you twist them. Microsoft puts glue inside the thumbsticks...
Having trouble reconnecting the two little wires
Nevermind got it to work. Video very misleading nowhere as easy as they make it look don't attempt this unless you're very confident in your skills or can afford a new controller if anything goes wrong
followed your video step by step now the only thing my controller does is turn on it no longer functions for anything do you know whats wrong with it
Both of my bumpers are rubbing against my the triggers, clearly a sizing issue causing it to not respond correctly?
We are investigating this issue, thanks for reporting to us. It seems Xbox changed the structure of the bumpers, so we are buying some other Elite 2 controllers to check. When did you buy your controller? And if is possible to make a video to show the problem and upload it to your channel? It will help us to know more details! Thank you so much!
@@ExtremeRate yep. Same issue here. I came to the comments just to see if anyone else had the same issue
@@MeeTube29 Could you please take a video or some pictures to compare the stock bumpers and ours, that will be a great help for us! If possible, please send the pictures/video to ray@extremerate.com, thank you so much!
My bumpers work fine until I put the faceplate on.. checked for wires being pinched or anything being pinched.. nothing is touching. Seems to only be an issue with the left bumper
@@gimmix332gim6 We are sorry about that, what color did you buy?
After installation it seems like my triggers force my bumper buttons to stick and they release when I press RT and LT
Please refer to this vid ruclips.net/video/ZOMHZQOA-d8/видео.html
How do you take the joystick cover off mines not budging
Seems Microsoft add some glue to fix the joystick, so I suggest you heat up the joystick by the hair dryer and then screw it off with force

Help! Does anyone know how long you should put the hair dryer on the thumb stick for?
wow thats crazy not even attempting this def thought this was gonna be simple jokes on me 🤣🤣 great video tho im sure its helped many ppl

How I can change the color logo button on this controller?
I used this video to replace the buttons on my elite series 2 controller. The guide was great and easy to follow and the entire installation went well. However, when I played a game afterwards, the D-pad up button wouldn't register at all anymore. I did some quick research for fixes and tried removing the spring and "bending" the spring ends out a bit further to hopefully provide better contact. That didn't work and after a bit more testing I realized that even removing the D-pad and pressing on the membrane actuator itself wouldn't ever register. Do you think the membrane needs to be replaced, something else, or are you not familiar enough with these controllers to have an educated guess on the issue?
@MasterZen I don't know what the technical name for it is, but the Elite Series 2 controller has the sticky pad with the attached 4 metal "domes" that click when pressed in and actuate the buttons. I believe all xbox controllers (as far as I can tell) have this same method for actuating the d-pad buttons.
@MasterZen Right. I mean I've taken the controller apart several times so I know how the stuff works. I just don't know the proper names for everything. The ABXY has the gray rubber membrane. The D-pad has the metallic domes (which I guess would be mechanical). I was referencing the sticker pad that houses the metallic domes as a membrane, although I see now that's not technically what it is.
I cant loose the Stickcaps. Have you a Tip?
Will this fix my right bumper issue? Because for some reason I have to push down with the force of God's to make the bumper do somthing if it doesn't any suggestions on getting that fixed?
You have to make sure if the problem is from the tactile switch of the RB, if so, then replace the buttons will not make any different
I had an issue with the RB too and after trying several things i found by pushing the tactile switch slightly away from the bumper probe it sorted it for me. Its like it wasn't fully releasing before registering another press
@@steamydog That must the thing!
i cant get da joysticks off
I can’t get my wires to stay connected after putting it back together, any tips guys?
During Soldering process
How do I remove the thumb stick cover? I keep twisting and it just keeps turning and doesn’t come off, I even tried prying it up and twisting at the same time
Microsoft puts glue to the base of the thumbsticks now, some of them glued tight some of them not, yours must be the tight one. Please try to heat up the base a bit by using the hair dryer, and then start to twist it. But please remember to do it carefully, don't use too much force and too much heat.
Just got my new parts from Extream Rate they should be arriving today am nervous too try this but think I can do it .. Just want to ask should I make sure the battery on my elite 2 is dead before attempting can accidentally turning on the controller when it's partially disassembled hurt it in any way ??
I wanna try it and fix it by myself idk if I should risk it
If your bumpers malfunction and the controller still in warranty, we suggest you send it back for warranty. If not, you can try to fix it by yourself :)

Will replacing the buttons fix a sticky trigger?
I found that sticky trigger is from deterioration of the rubber sticker on the strike plate. I removed the rubber on mine and put some gaffer tape on its place. It doesn't land quietly but it doesn't stick for now.
Hey, where do you buy the tools for this? Thanks
Microsoft was absolutely despicable in their engineering of these Series 2 controllers. The face A and B buttons fail SO often. They must be pressed perfectly, or they don't register a press. If you watch the fix (simply adding some electrical tape under the button), you cannot tell me Microsoft couldn't have just manufactured face buttons with a couple more micrometers of tolerance...They knew and left it.
The bumper switches fail all the time. Even if you BABY your $180 controller, you will start getting double clicks and then complete failure in 6 months. They knew these new switches were not as good as the elite s1 switches, but did it anyway.
The little cushion under the trigger stops falls to the side, leaving a STICKY trigger. It is enraging and unplayable when you have this happen. They KNEW this square would fail easily. You can fix this by simply regluing the square in the proper position. Any cyano acryllate will hold this square forever. They could have done this.
This is complete bull for an "elite" controller costing over $200 with warranty. They knew every single flaw and left them to make warranty money from nonstop exchanges. Then, they go and make this thing impossible to open and service. Scuf has a magnetic faceplate that comes right off...It's just despicable.
Mine didn't come with tools are they supposed to?
It's not suppose to, we are sorry about that. Please contact our customer service at info@extremerate.com, we will send you the tool.
Ive been having issues with my elite 2s right bumper not responding very well unless pushed really hard. Would these help?
I just disassembled with this video to answer this question, as I have the same problem. The bumper plastics depress a little white button on each side. Once the bumpers are removed you can use something long and skinny to test the those buttons out. In my case the RB button itself is super desensitized compared to LB, so replacing the plastics won't help one iota.
Just taking off the face plate was sketchy enough for me to not want to try this LOL. It looks cool but I'm not doing this.
It's ok lol
right i haven’t even touched faceplate and im tryna get the bullet buttons but this seems sketchy asf
I have an Elite Series 2, but my bumper button configuration is different from the one shown. My bumper has a central plate that pops off, but the bumpers remain firmly attached to the controller, and I can't see how to remove them. I tried to remove the boards with it (them) still in place, but it's impossible. Any suggestions?
Hi, is that possible for you to take a video to show the details of your bumper buttons?
Hi Kenneth - if you're still working on this - I ran into the same issue and the video I link shows how to remove the bumpers at about 9:40

You have to leave the joystick on and turn them counter clockwise , first time unscrewing them will need a bit of force but they will untwist
