Einleitung
Das eine schnelle und einfache Anleitung (meine erste!), die zeigt, wie man klebrige Trigger-Tasten eines Xbox One controllers repariert bzw. reinigt. In der Anleitung ist das Modell 1708 abgebildet, aber ich weiß, dass dies auch bei den früheren Xbox One, One S, One X und den Elite-Controllern funktioniert, da sie in Bezug auf die Funktion der Trigger-Taste sehr ähnlich sind.
Was du brauchst
-
-
Vergewissere dich, dass du alle Teile hast, die du brauchst, bevor du beginnst: Ein kleines Öffnungswerkzeug aus Plastik oder Metall zum Entfernen der Abdeckungen, kleine Wattestäbchen zum Säubern und Reinigungsalkohol für den eigentlichen Putzteil.
-
Sorge für einen sauberen Arbeitsplatz mit guter Beleuchtung und achte darauf, nicht gebückt zu arbeiten.
-
Entferne die Abdeckung und Batterien, bevor du anfängst am Controller zu arbeiten.
-
-
-
Führe das Öffnungswerkzeug vorsichtig in der Nähe des unteren Teils des Triggers unter das Kunststoffpanel ein.
-
Hebel dannach langsam die Abdeckung auf, bis sie sich von ihrer Halterung ablöst.
-
Möglicherweise ist es einfacher, zwischen der Vorder- und Rückseite der Abdeckung zu wechseln, um die Platte nicht zu beschädigen, wenn sie besonders klebrig/hartnäckig ist.
-
-
-
-
Reinige das Kontaktfeld des Triggers mit einem in Reinigungsalkohol getauchten Wattestäbchen. Achte darauf, das Wattestäbchen nicht zu sehr zu tränken, da sonst Flüssigkeit in das Innere tropft.
-
Reinige auch die gegenüberliegende Fläche an der Unterseite des Triggers, den Teil, der mit dem Pad in Berührung kommt und der wahrscheinlich ebenfalls klebrig ist.
-
Man sieht, wie viel Staub oder Schmutz sich im Inneren des Controllers und in den Ritzen der Griffe befindet - ein guter Zeitpunkt, um sauber zu machen!
-
-
-
Setze die Abdeckung wieder ein, indem du sie fest auf die Oberseite der Platte drückst, bis die Clips im Innneren einrasten.
-
Vergewissere dich, dass die Platte wieder richtig befestigt ist, denn im Inneren befinden sich einige Clips, die die Abdeckung an Ort und Stelle halten. Du möchtest nicht, dass sie sich wieder löst!
-
Da sich beide Trigger unter einer identischen Kunststoffplatte befinden kannst du diese Anleitung für beide Seiten des Controllers verwenden.
-
Um den Controller wieder zusammenzubauen, folge der Anleitung einfach in umgekehrter Reihenfolge: Setze die Rückwand ein, vergewissere dich, dass sie gut befestigt sind und setze dann die Batterien und die Abdeckung ein.

The little rubber pad on mine is all torn up and is sticking really bad - ruining my Forza experience. I am going to scrape it all away, and replace it with a lil’ wee bit of felt. My guess is that all this little pad does is prevent the triggers from clicking too hard when bottoming out.
Yes that should work, from my experience with fixing a few of these different types of console controllers. The rubber pad is just a cushion for the triggers to stop them hitting the frame of the controller so anything shock absorbing material should do it, just nothing that will stick to the triggers! :)
Nothing worse than throttle stick into corners! Exactly why I am here as well lol
Ok, I had a problem with this and I thought this was it, but with some research later my situation spiraled into a monster of a problem with my trigger that require and entire replacement and I can’t find anything to help, not even a replacement part. If you can help, please do so
Hello, thanks for reply seems like a weird issue, did you have a problem with the trigger sticking or that you can press it down but it doesn't bounce back (like an issue with the trigger spring)?? I know that there is a small rubbery pad (see step 3 picture) that can come off and get stuck inside the trigger housing. Let me know some details and I will try to help :)
Great guide helped fixing the issue.
Super delayed response, but thanks for the feedback. Glad it worked for you! :)
In case anyone wasn't sure, I can confirm that this guide works exactly the same for the current-gen Xbox Series controllers
Thanks for confirming, I can also reinforce this, as I have repair a dozen different Xbox controller models and this works for all the below:
2nd Gen c. 2015/2016
3rd Gen c. 2016-2020
4th Gen 2020++
For anyone interested, you can find out which generation controller you have with a quick web search. If you have 3 buttons in the centre below the lit up power/connection Xbox button then it's the Gen 4 (latest) models. Gen 2/3 can be distinguished by subtle differences in the frame shape and a colored plastic strip on the front/top edge between the two RB/LB bumpers :)
I used some tools made for sculpting clay, since I didn't have specific prying tools.
This led to 1. heavy scraching of the back of the controller 2. bending of the tip of the steel tool!
I don't put any blame on the guide mind you, I just can't believe how much force those clamps have, I whish it was screwed in instead.
For some reason, I also had to re-open and clean again. It's possible some stickiness comes from the removed panel.
My problem is however fixed now, without the need to purchase another controller (much more expansive than the sculpting tool!) and I can go back to Elden Ring NG++
That's good to hear and yes you will likely have sticky residue left from the old shock absorbing pad that was removed during cleaning. That happened to me as well and the solvent can be removed with some iso-propyl "rubbing" alcohol, similar to what you would do to remove thermal paste from a PC CPU
My problem was that the contact pad had worn away leaving behind the sticky adhesive residue that also got onto the trigger and made a sticky mess. I used a general purpose adhesive remover instead of rubbing alcohol to ensure that I got it all and it did the trick. To replace the pad, I used several plies of thinly sliced electrical tape strips, about 4 or 5, stacked on top of each other to create a new contact pad. Probably not the best material to use, but it's what I had lying around the house. Thanks, Zach!
Delayed reply, sorry about that! Glad to hear it worked and happy that people find this guide useful, also very resourceful using electrical tape, I have used small pieces of draft-excluder foam tape as well and that also worked well :)
Following this guide completely fixed my right trigger that was getting momentarily stuck when pulled in. I didn't have pry bar, and used a flat head screwdriver, although I'd recommend a pry bar, to minimize scratching of the plastic. Thanks.
Thanks for the feedback, I agree this is a problem with other repair work I have done. Metal tools are great for certain things but if you need to avoid scratching or damaging the item then plastic pry bars and spudgers are the way forward
Worked perfectly. Thank you for doing this. Man, that pad sure is brittle. I say this in 2023 when it's an Xbox One controller, so I can't be too upset! :) Just be mindful of that, folks. It's mentioned, but want to emphasize that.
Yeah, that's true, they can get quite brittle after a while but as you said the controller is probably produced in 2016/17 and unfortunately not designed to last a long time. A previous comment about layered electrical tape slices or sticky foam tape/pads sliced to fit will be a good replacement for old/brittle pads
My triggers are actually sticking at the tops of the trigger or where they sit at rest. How would I go about cleaning those parts?
Hi Adrianna,
Is this happening when you first try to press the trigger down rather than when they are pressed all the way in and don't spring back out?
There could be some plastic or dirt that is catching inside your trigger housing, the spring could also be knackered, dirty or even partially out of position. Best thing to do is follow a guide and take the trigger housing apart, make sure the spring is properly seated and clean around the edges where the trigger and the controller meet.
Let me know if you're still having issues :)
