    • With the charging rail facing away from you, open the Joy-Con like a laptop.

    • Do not fully remove the back panel yet; there are still two ribbon cables connecting the charging rail to the motherboard.

    • Gently pry the battery connector straight up from its socket on the motherboard using a spudger. This will keep the Joy-Con from powering on during the repair.

    • Use caution while working around the vibration motor cable that runs close to the battery connector.

    • The ZL button is locked in place by a small ZIF connector on the motherboard. Use tweezers to flip the ZIF connector lock opposite the cable.

    • Use tweezers to gently pull the ZL button flex cable out of the ZIF connector socket. The midframe is now disconnected and can be removed.

    • Remove the ZL button and its spring.

    Details for removing the ZL trigger are Step 12

    I think this guide mean L button and spring instead of ZL button since that is attached to the mid frame which was removed before this step.

    • Remove the latch button and set it off to the side.

    • Depress the latch underneath the trigger using tweezers. Gently pry the trigger off.

    • Make sure to note the position of the two springs under the trigger as they will need to go back in the same spot on the new mid-frame.

    Ahh nevermind. Figured this one out via brute force. Press and hold near the bottom of the trigger button—to keep the springs from flying away—then use a prying tool (I used a flat pick) to separate the top of the button from the midframe. The trigger button is held in place from behind with two circular indentations near the top of the button. Pry the button straight away from the midframe to release them.

This guide was very helpful! A picture of the latch location on the trigger (step 12) would have been a big help, that step took a minute because I was putting pressure on the wrong spot.

I also noticed that most of the #00 screws were more receptive to a J00 bit. Might be worth noting in the tools section since swapping between them can strip a screw.

Fitz Montville - Responder

Used this guide for reference on the tools needed, someone else pointed out to use the J00 bit instead of the P00 and I’ll second that as the fit for the screws was much better, thanks for the guide much appreciated!

Lee Whittaker - Responder

Exactly what I needed! Dropped a set of controllers on a tile flow and the rail popped out and pulled the ribbon cables too. I picked up another iFixit toolkit with some J bits to put it back together. I don’t know why I waited this long to fix it. Charged the controllers overnight and I’m up another set now!

Others above have mentioned that they needed to use a J00 bit instead of P00, but mine did not work with a J00 and was better with a P000

Jeremy Johnson - Responder

Small thing. In the tools list, it incorrectly says Y0 while the rest of the post correctly says Y00 for the back screws.

William Doering - Responder

Thanks!

Just need a review for add the instructions for removing the L button, between steps 8 and 9 ;)

Nicht ohne Lupe, Pinzette und Spudger als Brillenträger an diese Reparatur gehen. Die Verbindungen der Flachkabel sind verdammt klein. Eine Gute Anleitung. Hat bei mir funktioniert!

Gerd Paßmann - Responder

I followed these instructions and everything works perfectly except my Switch doesn't think the joycon is attached anymore; it thinks I'm using it wirelessly even though it's docked into the system. Any advice?

Dani Watson - Responder

It means you did not situate your Joycon rail correctly, since it does not “click” with the console. Take it apart, make sure the detach button and rail ribbons are secure, readjust, and reassemble your controller

James Conklin -

Please help...

So I followed the instructions step by step, however now the left joy con does not want have a connection status on the switch, it thinks it is disconnected.

Great guide, used it to mod my shell and replace the thumbstick at the same time. The only thing I would say is that if you are replacing the rail and slide locks you'll need a bit of extra guide via YT or something (not sure if there is one on here.) As others have said 'depress the latch' for the ZL button is tricky (kind of just pulled about on mine until it came off, still not sure where the latch is.) And one final thing, it says ZL button at one point but ZL is a trigger - they mean the Z button. But again, great guide, far less issues than expected - thank you to the author.
