  1. Elite 2 Controller Broken Shoulder Buttons


    Hi guys,

    I’ve owned a elite series 2 controller for about a year now and this is already my 2nd replacement from Microsoft. My first controller had an issue with the LB button not registering 100% of the time and now both my LB and RB buttons are having that issue. I just called Microsoft support expecting a replacement/ repair but they just told me that my controller is out of warranty and I can’t even pay to repair the controller! I’m essentially stuck with a broken 200€ controller with nothing I can do. All they recommend me to do was fix it myself ! I’m pretty tech savvy but I have no clue how to fix this.

    Anyone please help. I was saving up to buy a series X this month and buying a new elite 2 controller would set me back pretty bad.

    Xbox Elite 2 controller NOT working with new firmware update

    To be very, very clear, the problem is that the newest firmware updates to Xbox elite 2 controller has broken the functionality of the paddles. As of the latest firmware, the paddles are completely disabled when in default profile. The paddles used to work in default mode, and now they don't. Steam can corroborate this: last year Steam added functionality to customize the outputs of the elite controllers paddles, which means that the paddles used to output a unique signal instead on only emulating other controller buttons.

    A quick internet search reveals numerous accounts from users who had used steam to customize the paddle outputs, proving that the paddles used to work. You can also see a growing number of recent complaints from Elite controller users who are realizing that their paddle inputs are now broken. This is not an isolated occurrence, the elite controller was broken by the latest firmware updates, and people are realizing it.

    The changes made to the Xbox elite 2 Controller paddles in the latest firmware updates NEED TO BE REVERTED.

    Original Elite Controller Issues

    I got my first elite when it launched the only thing I have had to do is get the shoulder buttons replaced in that time . Could be lucky but I did use it every day till I got the elite 2 in December. So far no issues with that to 👍
