XBOX ONE S Controller Buttons Installation Guide by eXtremeRate 

This tutorial video deserves million views because he show’s 1by1 how to do it clearly

I customised my first controller today and thanks to this video i succeeded! Super easy to follow through all the steps, even without commentary. So i just wanna say thank you for the help!

This was super easy to follow! The trickiest parts were definitely taking the grips off and making sure that I got the first circuit board you remove back in correctly. The rest of it is pretty difficult to mess up--the buttons only go in one way. My controller looks great now and still works perfectly, thank you!

YES THIS IS THE CONTROLLER I HAVE thank you so much for having a tutorial that isn’t just seriesX

It worked for an X1 controller, too -- thanks for your walkthrough. It was really well done!

I bought y'all's replacement buttons in chrome red. Happy to say there amazing I even watched this tutorial, icant wait to buy from yall again.

Wanted to say thank you all for making the replacement side panels for the V1 Elite! I had 3 dead and useless V1 Elites (1 bought, 1 obtained as a gift, and 1 that was sent to me as a "Goodwill replacement" from Micro$oft). All 3 lasted 4-8 months before developing the same issues (Peeling grips on the side panels due to the garbo adhesive M$ used in manufacturing, and a couple of broken shoulder buttons due to garbo design). It cost $60 to buy 3 sets of side panels, but they're a remarkably close match to the originals. $20 for a Systhetix replacement bumper kit (Includes 2 bumper pieces), and I now have 3 V1 Elites that look either brand new or pretty good (One had an inner grip issue on one side that was bad enough that the grip had to be trimmed down with an Xacto, since the rubber stretches when the adhesive fails), the others just needed to be carefully re-bonded where there was some minor lifting. I spent a year and then some in limbo. The few indy shops left wouldn't touch them since they couldn't get OEM (Or for a while, any) parts. M$ wouldn't even repair a V1, I offered to pay them to repair or replace the damaged units. They weren't interested. I guess they were saving the last of their refurb stock for warranty and "Goodwill" replacements. Replacement out of warranty = "Lulz!" once the V2 came out. My request to buy the OEM parts and fix them myself was met with something akin to a "Get bent!" by M$. I mean, how dare anyone have expectations about design and manufacturing defects after stuffing $300+ into their pockets for a couple of controllers. 🤣🤣🤣 So far so good after 6 months of use on one of the repaired controllers! I'll continue to monitor the inner grip area, as a new shell with the inner grips is now $50 on Amazon, and at that point probably not worth replacement after already spending $30 on each controller to get them functional and looking pretty good again. So THANK YOU for making these much needed replacement parts. I'm amazed you were able to get the rubber grip texture and color so close to the original parts! Including the needed tools and uploading videos like this HUGE thanks and thumbs up for you on behalf of all Elite V1 owners who had problems with peeling grips on their controllers! 👍👍 (Now let the comments from the owners who used their Elites 40 hours a week for 5 years and never had an issue step forth, insisting that I must have thrown my controllers off a skyscraper, pissed on them while in a drunken stupor, doused them in gasoline and set them on fire, drop kicked them into the nearest wall and torn off the grips in a fit of rage, or otherwise abused them, since their own lack of problems conclusively proves there were no design or manufacturing issues with these units. 🙄👍😂 'Cause after all, for-profit companies are absolutely in the habit of sending out replacement units for originals that are out of (The absurdly short) warranty when they've done nothing wrong in design and manufacture. Shame it didn't save them, apparently there were more than enough pissed off V1 owners to finally get a class action lawsuit against M$ going... 😂)

Man gotta say your tutorials went from like a 6 ish to like 1000 like love um so much there so easy to follow

I bought the Weeds face plate for 16$ on amazon, along with some blacked out buttons and your guys's rubber grips with the plastic. Also got the extremerate interchangeable dpads and thumbsticks.

Got the NES housing for my new controller. This helped me know how to install the ABXY buttons

Thank you for tutorial it helps me alot :)

This is such a great product thx!

Por fin encontré un excelente tutorial sin desoldar los motores❤

Thank you my controller looks awesome and this video really really really really really helped

Do you need to go thru all of the above just to change out the abxy buttons?

Wow you really helped me out a lot. Step by step!

Best vid ever, thank you

That is such a beautiful blue, sadly I don't won't to install it myself.

Thank the Lord for this guy. I am getting a wwll plate set. And getting bullets buttons and joystick

Thank you so much this will be very useful as I just broke 2 controllers in one day playing Elden Ring. I dropped my shock blue controller on the LB button and now its broken and jammed in. As for my grey controller the x button sometimes gets jammed in but doesnt register when I click the button. The last time I had this issue was on my first xbox one controller, I had spilled beer in it and with the dust/dirt in the controller the buttons would not make contact effectively, a simple cleaning fixed that issue hopefully thats the same issue on the grey controller and nothing too serious. As for the shock blue controller as much as I want to fix it I think it still has warranty as I literally bought it at the end of last year around christmas.

Hi my bumpers of my xbox one s controller feel very loose and make a cruncy noice when pressing them whats the cause and do i need to replace the bumpers

Thank you, so useful that you tell us what size screwdrivers you need, thanks

I’m a 15 year old girl and I didn’t think I’d be able to manage but this was honestly so helpful thank you so much my controller looks so cuuuuttteeee you guys are amazing

finally some one who shows everything i am subscribing

is this just to change the color or it is also clicky?

Finally a tutorial without needing to use soldering iron to take the controller apart. Does the battery sticker come off that easily or is it suggested to use some heat?

Hey do you guys know if the series x controller back housing fits in the xbox one s model?

Welp you guys saved me. I have an Xbox one s controller and it is my favorite controller. Everything about it is perfect to me. Unfortunately while I was gaming suddenly the right bumper broke. I have the new Xbox series x controller and the elite series 2 controller but I despise both of them, as they just don't feel the same at the Xbox one s controller, the buttons are mushy and the d-pad is atrocious. The series S controller is in my opinion the best controller. Long story short, I found you guys on amazon and the specific color in this video stood out to me and I bought that exact set, as well as chrome red. (Bc I want the chrome red on the bumpers and triggers but blue/purple on the buttons) I then got a galaxy painted front plate and some purple aluminum joysticks. I think the purple/blue buttons with the galaxy faceplate will look absolutely perfect! (I didn't really save any money bc I went all out and ordered a rediculous amount of custom parts for the broken controller...) But you guys did save me from having to buy another bland generic disgusting Xbox series X controller. Especially since they no longer make the series S controller, except for the hilariously overpriced urban camo ones... (Which I think are only sold till stock runs out). I plan to keep that series S controller working till the day I die and I appreciate you guys allowing me to keep it alive and in STYLE. :) Thank You.

Nice video thanx 👍

Cool that exremerate answers to comments. That's what I call service

I got everything except when I got my bumpers put on the left one will not move unless I hold down the trigger. Please help 😔

You guys should add matching thumb sticks it would really help to have a consistent setup also it would be cool if you guys also sold back plates that have grip on it like regular xbox one controllers

Nice video

Thank You so Much!!!

Could you do a video on how to reshell a Xbox series x controller? I want to buy your front housing shell and do my controller pink but I’m afraid I’ll mess it up!

question, will alternative xbox 360 controller buttons (A,B,X,Y) work on an Xbox one S controller?

Love this! Would this fix sticky buttons? Wanna try make my xbox one controller work a little better cause all the series X controllers I get are broken out of the box for me. My luck is trash 😅

can the conductive rubber of buttons of xbox one s controller be replaced by conductive rubber of xbox one controller (from the normal xbox controller)? I'm having difficulty to search for the s one replacement in my country

Hello xtremerate I know it says that this mod does not work on the series 2 elite controller, but would the abxy face buttons fit into the series 2? I have a faceplate of yours and it is great! I have been using it for like a year and a half!

Background music??

Hello I am wondering if you guys are doing any plain xbox one X controller shells so we can try spray-paint them ourselves? thanks :D

i have it installed but the trigger is pulling on the bumper

Do any of these parts work with the elite series 2? Obviously the dpad does not and will there be a set like this but for the elite series 2?

What's the stand used in the beginning of the video?

@ExtremeRate is it possible to put ps4 buttons in the xbox one controller ?

Thx man all of the buttons fell out ima have a fun time to reassemble my controller

would the buttons and dpad fit on the standard xbox one controller?

Got my replacement parts, installed it. The video is amazing. But now my left analog does not work, it is constantly stuck going left and down. I can’t figure out what happened. Any tips?

Why all ps4 remap kits aren’t available for purchase? my remap kit broke and I wanted a new one, and in all online purchase centers its sold out?😢 are you working on a new project?

Okay so im following through this and i got to the lil wire at 6:37 and that bugger will not come off? I dont want to brute force it but how the heck did you get that off so nonchalant

Opened my controller to fix the A button and found the little rubber thing was missing the thing in the middle for the A button. I have no idea how it just disappeared inside my controller

Hey Extreme rate, I love your work and want to submit a custom design back and front plate that a friend if me can make. The design can be used by your company for futher use if possible from both parties. I really hope your able and willing to react on this!

my wireless connection doesn’t work anymore after this. i’m not sure what i did wrong

Hi I have a question, the screws to get to the button (A, B, X, Y) are they a T6 or T6H

How do I replace the trigger when the vibration motor fall out?

Can you make a tutorial for turning the white one to the black version as well

Can't attach the ribbon cable again, any suggestions?

Hello I'm very upset today I enjoy watching your videos, my controller is giving up on the L3 stick, not working I'm not sure what to do I'm afraid I might break it

Will these work on an enhanced controller??

God tier video, also for anyone who’s having RT issues where the rt keeps pressing reset the console. I spent like a hour tryna figure out why it was bugged but after hard resetting the console it fixed the issue

Maybe I just thought I wanted to completely reshell my entire controller a seems like a lot of work

great tutorial even though i accidentally messed up my controller while doing this and now it wont turn on lol

Idea: I feel like you guys should make a service to do the modifications for people who feel like they might break their controller while doing it..... just an idea, I’m not your boss 😂

I tried to do this, and now none of my buttons work except B 😞

My left trigger seems to be up higher did i mess something up for should this be fixable somehow???

Well, I ended up messing up my controller even more... Only do this if you’re good at repairing things.

where can I buy the screwdriver kit?

+1 subscriber

so i cant install them on my classic xbox one controller?

What if your controller doesn’t turn on after you did this

Is it just me or does the mother board ribbon just not want to snap into place 😭😭😭

Mine does not open that easily wtf

Gosh it’s so much screws to get the damn buttons out

Does it come with torx screwdriver

I broke the yellow tape did this effect my controller?!?!?!

Now my controller won't turn on :/

16:00 I can’t get this part to go. It’s the only thing holding me up.

Need chameleon orange

6:46 caused me to break my controller

I prefer Xbox controllers, but they are a pain in the ass to disassemble compared to playstation controllers.
