Steps

Time Required

Introduction

The ABXY buttons are important because they are the primary method of controlling inputs to a game or menu. These buttons are easy to take out after taking off the front cover, so they are popular to customize and modify. If you are experiencing ABXY buttons that stick or are unresponsive, it may be time to clean or replace them.

In replacing the ABXY buttons, you will need a Phillips #1 screwdriver, an opening pick, and a pair of tweezers.

If the ABXY buttons (A, B, X, Y, D-Pad, +, –, HOME, and Screenshot buttons) on your YCCTEAM YCC-SW4001 have debris under them, are broken, or are not functioning properly, you can follow this guide to clean or replace them.

Tools

Step 1

Use a Phillips #1 screwdriver to remove the eight 9.15 mm screws that secure the back case.

Step 2

Use an opening pick to pry the back cover off of the controller.
This exposes the battery’s housing.

Step 3

Use a Phillips #1 screwdriver to remove the three 9.15 mm screws from the back of the controller.

Step 4

Delicately lift the front case slightly by pulling it away from the back case.
Do not remove the front cover completely; it is still attached to the motherboard by a white ribbon cable.

Step 5

Use the tip of the opening pick to flip up the black locking flap of the ZIF connector.
The black flap holds the white ribbon cable in place.

Step 6

Use tweezers to disconnect the white ribbon cable from the ZIF connector.

Step 7

Remove the front case.

Step 8

Isolate the front cover.
Flip over the front cover and remove the four 5.77 mm screws from the back of the front cover using the Phillips #1 Screwdriver.
