    Patrick Henry - Antwort

    I've never seen that, I can't advise much other than scrapping it out with an xacto knife

    EasyAsABC123 - Antwort

    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

    EasyAsABC123 - Antwort

    While a TR8 will work, they’re actually TR9 screws on mine (Model 1698, X912908-004).

    @isbelldl thanks, updated to specify TR9

    TORX TR8 worked form the ifixit kit

    • Ribbon Cable

    My connector did not look like this and popping it up broke it

    Amarokstar - Antwort

    please post a picture of the connector so we can update this, you also might have a newer revision of the motherboard

    EasyAsABC123 - Antwort

    Is there any way to replace that connector bar or maybe an alternative to keeping the contacts down on the ribbon if it’s broken?

    Joe - Antwort

    @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.

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

    If you are just replacing the main power board there is no need to desolder at this point. The main power board can be removed with the controller board still in place.

    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

    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?

    Fitifazrul Rahman - Antwort

    It might work…it might damage one of the boards but probably wouldn’t

    I would like to buy a motherboard, can you please stock some up?

    davi_t - Antwort

    I don’t work for ifixit, I don’t know if they see comments on a private made guide.

    EasyAsABC123 -

    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.
