Introduction

If your YCCTEAM YCC-SW4001 is not powering on or not charging, you can follow this guide to replace its battery. This requires removing most components from the back half of the controller, including the adhesive securing it in place.

The battery is important for providing power to the controller while the controller is not plugged in. Without the battery, your controller wont turn on. Before replacing the battery, check and make sure that whatever problem your having is caused by the status of the battery. This is important because the battery is attached to the controller using an adhesive. If you replace the battery, you should also replace the adhesive, as the battery is smaller than its designated compartment.
