Hello TYRIN B.,

We appreciate you for sharing this with us and welcome to Xbox Forums.

We understand that you are experiencing slow response time when using the back paddles on your Elite Series 2 Controller. I'm here to help you with that.

To proceed, as per LegoNinja187, on this thread: Elite Controller Series 2 paddles not working - Microsoft Community

Just make sure the paddles are on the controller correctly and are pressing in the little button under them. also make sure that they have an assigned button in the Xbox accessories app.



On the other hand, I would like to ask if you have updated your controller's firmware to the latest version? If not, please follow the steps below to update your controller's firmware:



1. Connect your controller to your Xbox One console or a Windows 10 PC using a USB cable.

2. Press the Xbox button to open the guide.

3. Select Profile & system > Settings > Devices & connections > Accessories.

4. Select the ellipsis (…) button next to the controller you want to update.

5. Select Device info > Firmware version.

6. If there's a firmware update available, select Continue to start the update.



After updating the firmware, please test the back paddles again to see if the response time has improved.



If the issue persists, you can try resetting your controller to its default settings. Please note that resetting your controller will erase all customizations, including button mapping and sensitivity settings. To reset your controller, please follow the steps below:



1. Press and hold the Pair button on your controller for three seconds.

2. Release the button.

3. Press and hold the Xbox button on your controller for 15 seconds.

4. After 15 seconds, release the Xbox button.



Once your controller has been reset, please test the back paddles again to see if the response time has improved.
