    Question about the warranty for Xbox Elite 2 controller, which has paddle problems


    Hi all gamers,

    Suddenly I found my Xbox elite 2 gets the common problem that P1 and P3 cannot be clicked by long paddles. I have tried to ask for a warranty and it gave me two different information:

    1. When I used the link:

    https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help/hardware-network/controller/controller-warranty

    I got the information that my controller is:

    Activation date: 2020/12/12

    Last connected: 2021/1/18

    2. After one day, I have got the reply and it said:

    At this time, we are not able to process your
    controller exchange request.

    Based on your controller activation date, your controller is out of warranty.

    So...could any tell me the warranty of the elite 2 controller, as I know which has been extended to 1 year....

    Best regards,

    Ferdinand

    :)

    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.

    series 2 electrical shocks (not static electricity)

    I can confirm that the Xbox Elite 2 controller has issues with conducting electricity through the paddles.

    I am getting shocked as well.

    The Xbox Elite 2 controller needs to be recalled immediately.

    Elite Series 2 Controller, Larger paddles

    This was my only complaint about this controller. Fortunately the paddles from my spare Elite 1 fit and work perfectly. I was hesitant at first as I discovered the joysticks weren't compatible from the elite 1 to the elite 2 but the paddles do work. I've
    been playing with the bigger paddles on my elite 2 since Thursday afternoon and I haven't noticed or had any issues.

    Xbox Elite Controller back-paddles

    To answer your questions:

    -Yes. The controller is up to date.

    -Playing CoD: Black Ops 3 mostly, my friend also has a Elite Controller, and he does not have a problem.

    -Switching back & forth between slot 1&2 doesn't work, but using the sync button to turn off and on the paddles fixes it.
