Introdução
Bumpers on an Xbox One Wireless Controller 1697 may become less responsive over time due to extended wear and tear. If the bumpers on your controller become loose over time or break, use this guide to replace the bumpers on the controller.
O que você precisa
-
-
Remove the battery pack cover.
-
Remove the two AA batteries.
-
Carefully remove the sticker or puncture to reveal the screw.
-
-
-
Remove the side handles by wedging the spudger around the side panels.
-
Pry the side panel by moving the spudger back and forth. You must do this along the entire seam to remove the side handle panel.
-
There are seven clips that need to be opened to remove each handle panel.
Absolutely use the spudger to do this. DO NOT just lift up a bit at the bottom and then try to forcefully pull off this panel (as is shown and suggested on *multiple* YouTube videos). You WILL snap the clips. Maybe not all of them and *maybe* none of them, but as the instructions here detail, what you want to do is UNCLIP the clips where they are located, using the PLASTIC spudger. NOT a screwdriver. I watched three separate videos on YouTube where the person said “just stick a screwdriver in there and once you’re able to lift up enough to fit your finger inside, do so, and then just carefully pull the panel off.” That’s not how it works.

Use the TORX TR8 screwdriver to remove the five TR9 Torx screws.
you must also remove the T8 screw hidden under the label in the battery compartment to free the faceplate.
Precised by Dennis Kim, but to remove the screws you need a TORX TR8 screwdriver (I guess it’s a Torx size 8)

The bumpers are connected by a middle plastic cover that is around the Xbox home button. Remove this plastic piece by lifting the plastic cover over the two pins, pressing the home button in, and pushing the cover towards the top of the controller.
-
Be aware of the sync button loosely placed under the plastic covering. Ensure it is put back before putting back the bumper/plastic cover assembly.
-
Remove the current bumper assembly by pulling them off the plastic cover.
you forgot to include directions for removing the central cover.
And when you do, the connect button pops out, and now I have no clue how to put it back -_-
The replacement part I bought fit OK but was too snug, with the result that the bumpers wouldn’t spring back so they wouldn’t click and unclick the tiny control switches they connect to.
After a bit of examination I determined that if I cut out the middle arch section that joins the bumpers, but leaving enough plastic to go under the central plastic cover so that they would be held in place securely, that it was possible to reassemble the controller so the bumpers click and unclick freely.
I had the same issue, But i just shaved the little lugs that connect the button to the switch with a scalpel and used the original plastic black cover. Works a treat and i’ve no fear the button will fall out.. :)

You should add a security hex screwdriver to your tools list, along with the gauge that is required.
There is a fifth screw in the battery compartment that holds the faceplate on. Take an exacto knife and cut out sticker where the hole is.
Could you elaborate on the “remove the bumpers” part (last step) please, thank you.
Great guide. Helped me easily fix a sticky bumper and save 60$
Thank you soooo much. Had a broken bumper for over a year and finally fixed it thanks to this great guide.
How do you put them back on. The right button assembly seems to be different than the left for me
Bad design or planned obsolescence on Microsoft's part, but thanks for the guide. I had a problem that others had on the replacement bumper where it had the switch depressed all the time, their solution was to file down the plastic (just barely) that presses the switch and it worked for me as well.
Excellent guide! Just revived a controller that had been chilling unused for 2 years. The replacement bumper I purchased off of Ebay had a little hitch. They would not move or click at all when placed. I just had to break off the little plastic nub that holds the end of the bumper to the controller (I found that little trick on accident by breaking one of them, lol). Now the controller functions fine, the bumpers can just be pulled up at the outside ends. Not a problem, as their purpose is to be clicked. Thanks!
Note: Screw removal is in Step 3
