Remove the 5 Torx Security Bit (TR9) screws.
all the T8 screws on my controller have a clear filling in them, WTF?!?!?
all my T8 screws have a clear filling in them, WTF?!?!?!
I've never seen that, I can't advise much other than scrapping it out with an xacto knife
My screws have a tiny metal pin in the center. Looks like I need a TR8 bit, not a T8. This might be what you are mistaking for a clear filling.
Thanks it might be TR8 i’ll update the guide
@isbelldl thanks, updated to specify TR9
TORX TR8 worked form the ifixit kit
My anolog stick is lagging on my elite 1 controller. Can I remove a anolog module from a normal xbox 1 controller and then put into the elite 1 controller would it be compatible.

You can pop the connector up to remove the ribbon easily.

Ribbon Cable
My connector did not look like this and popping it up broke it
please post a picture of the connector so we can update this, you also might have a newer revision of the motherboard
@joe you can try tape, or even hot glue (easy to remove with rubbing alcohol), that might hold it down. I wasn’t able to find the connector but i’m sure if you count the number of pins and measure it you’d be able to locate a replacement connector on something like mouser.
God i wish or a vid on this

Desolder the 4 wires on each side, these control the vibrations and the RT LT.

Pull up from the "top" side of the controller on the daughterboard.
Hi,
I would like to know if I could get from you a Motherboard . In case you don' t have it, where could I find one?
Thank you
You mean like this one? Xbox One Elite Controller (1698) Daughterboard
Hi, I have 2 not working controllers (both 1698 and 1708). The 1708 broke the bumper switch, I manage to fix it but as always, postponed. So, can I either swap Xbox One Elite comtroller (1698) into Xbox One (1708) shell/housing or vice versa??
Or can I mix both motherboard together so I can make one of them working?
It might work…it might damage one of the boards but probably wouldn’t
I don’t work for ifixit, I don’t know if they see comments on a private made guide.
I decided to toss all this stuff in the trash at this point as I am not going to spend +$50 on equipment and replacement parts to fix a $60 controller. But thanks for the educational manual all the same.

Unscrew the 6 Torx (T6) screws.
On the 2nd picture: the D-pad dome switches are covered by a clear plastic film: is possible to remove it/reattach that plastic film? I believe there might be something stuck underneath the dome switches that’s interfering with the d-pad buttons working reliably/consistently. I know I could just replace the daughterboard, but I’m trying to avoid doing that if I can just clean it some how/find a way around it
This is just tacom tape :), feel free to buy more and replace
Hi anyone know of where to find that rubber thing that goes on lb/rb trigger?
rubber thing? You mean the lb and rb part itself? or the home button section?
The lb/rb white rubber behind the button supoort rubber i dont know how its called

Desolder the original LED from the motherboard of the controller. Do this for both sides of the LED until all of the old solder is removed.

So question I’m having troubles with my elite controller every time I go to plug it in and the charging port in the back of the controller it starts to smoke what’s my problem
It sounds like it could be a lot of things…
smoke is obvious a dead stop (stop plugging it in until you repair it).
I would first check the charge port and make sure it is firmly attached if it isn’t you can easily replace the usb port. Next it could be the mainboard charging circuit. if it is this…replace the controller is likely the ideal solution.
I was looking to do this mod for fun. Do you have or know where I can get the led part number? A schematic or bom would be nice. Thanks
0805 SMD LED Diode Lights
i bought these https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01CUG...
Thank you. I ordered them so we will see what happens.
Worked like a champ. The original LED was a POS and melted when i applied the heat. I got it cleaned up and change with no other problem. Thanks for the guide.
Awesome I'm glad you had success!
