    TRIGGER MOTORS BUZZING ( 4 controllers in & I'm done with xbox)


    Hi. Im not really sure what to do about this now. Im on my third controller and they all develop a buzzing and grinding noise on the trigger motors.. With the one that came with the console thats 4 controllers that all do it! Especially on forza! This
    seems to be a widespread problem and a design flaw from the xbox controller team. Im afraid its unacceptable to ship a controller like that.. I cant bare the noise anymore... I don't feel i can go back to game to swap again... Because the replacement will
    do it to... So, is this something Microsoft can fix with updates? Maybe tune down the vibration...? Take out trigger pulses altogether? Please don't say turn off vibrations, because this is next gen gaming and i love rumble feedback.. My n64 done it with no
    buzzing.. Any help or advice on what to do... I know for a fact in april i will be paying the xbox one off, and i will order a ps4 after playing one the other day, it just feels better built to me... Gutted!

    :)

    Clicking Cracking sound on analog control Xbox one. Should I replace?

    Yeah i had one that done the same, when i moved stick left and diagonal left! Weird!. My trigger motors also buzzing loud!! Ive had 4 defective controllers in a row.. Its actually just bad design. Someone needs to be fired..

    Anyway, ps4 soon for me.. Suggest you all do the same.

    XB1 Battery Life?

    Actually as far as I know there are four rumble motors in the Xbox one Controllers as opposed to the two in the Xbox 360 Controller.. The Xbox One Controllers has the "impulse motors" in the triggers.. But I assume that onyx62is could have ment to say that
    there are two more rumble motors in the Xbox one Controllers than there is in the 360 controllers..

    TRIGGER MOTORS BUZZING ( 4 controllers in & I'm done with xbox)

    It seems to me that anyone else with this problem would add there comments here and there are none. I or none of my friend's or family have this problem. I have used my controller every day sense Nov 22. How can you have 4 that make a grinding noise. Have
    you sent them back for warranty?

    No, i have not sent the one back from the catalogue i brought it from back, i thought i would just keep it for spare.

    The first one i took back to Game.. They swapped..

    The second i took back to Game... They swapped...

    This one has started doing it... Do i take it back..?

    Its a common problem.. Google it.. Xbox controller buzzing.... Along with funny cracks on the analog sticks when pushed to the left...... Weird right? Ive come across 3 other people with the same strange problem...

    On Forza when i accelerate from a stand still this buzzing happens.. Kinda like its failed to rumble properly and sounds like a trapped fly...then it may rumble too much and almost sounds like a grinding,.my wife even asked what that noise was?? I may turn
    it on tomorrow and it wont happen all day..

    But don't insinuate I'm making it up or doing something wrong.. Ive had consoles for 20+ years.. Ive never experienced such a badly designed unthought out console in my life... That may be to do with the level of technology in these things these days...
    But i refuse to believe that the team that apparently worked on this controller for two years non stop never came across this...

    So lucky you, but others arnt so lucky..

    Can anyone else advise maybe more constructively?

    Me again

    I wasn't insinuating anything, there is no need. If I didn't believe you I'd just say so. I was and am still looking at the Odds.

    We use the heck out of them and have not had the problem with one. How can you get 4 in a row? Sounds like they all came from the same store, maybe the same bad batch? Maybe they were all made on Monday after a hard party week end. Maybe this is some of
    the sabotage we herd about.

    Are they all from the same store and did that store get them as one shipment?

    Good luck

    PS a good way to explain how the design team could use them for so lone and not have problem, while you do, is that it isn't the design, it is in the manufacturing process.

    TRIGGER MOTORS BUZZING ( 4 controllers in & I'm done with xbox)

    Yeah maybe so.. Haha.. Like ya say i just cant believe I've had four!!

    Its just made me assume its design flaw.. Yeah same store so never thought of the possibility of a bad batch.. Ill take it back and try again...

    I didn't know if it would be the game programming pushing it to hard or something..

    But yeah 4 in a row is suspect.. Ill speak to game tomorrow and ask about batches..

    Cheers

    My Day One controller vibrates/rattles pretty bad now from the left trigger - only in Forza when locking up the brakes (no ABS). I've also had issues with the left stick not returning to center and therefore continuing to provide directional input - in
    AC4 press to go into haystack and he immediately jumps out. I was in a menu somewhere and it was scrolling up and up with no input from me. Definitely some quality control or design issues with these things.

  10. This is a fault with the design of the controller. Having disassembled mine I can tell you that it is very odd.

    The triggers have not stops on them When you pull them the motors attacked to the controller grind into the control board inside. The left trigger's motor grinds into an area labeled "Mylar". The right trigger actually grinds into a microchip on the board.
    I imagine this will be a point of fault as a controller ages.

    So every time you pull the trigger hard? You are damaging either the control board, a micro chip, the motor itself, or the flimsy plastic the motor is mounted to inside the trigger.

    So what are we concluding, That our different failure rate is caused by the way there used? Pull in the trigger real hard and it destroys itself?

    if you dont play the same games they play, you cant compare your own experiences to theirs.

    again you are insinuating that people are miss-using their controllers. i doubt this is the case. The controllers are horribly designed. its a joke and it appears that there are no plans for fixes. I am on my THRID controller now, for a completely different
    issue having to do with the left stick (an issue encountered from playing madden and/or fifa). Im sure all of my replacements will fail the same way. i am extremely disappointed in xboxs lack of awareness and lack of corrective actions.

    If your disappointed and angry it can influence the way you interpret things. I asked questions w/o insinuating anything. My main game is Forza, love it and have played it for days. I'm just looking for something that answers the question - why are some
    people having repeated problems with the controller, while others that play the same games don't? If some people naturally squeeze the trigger harder then others, that's not wring, just different.

    I don't think people press the buttons differently than anyone else...

    I just think its a very loud badly designed controller and many people are going to have problems and many wont or will just put up with noises, grinding and failing units...

    Dual shock 4 is a step above the x1 controller this time round, most reviews and comparisons agree...

    What with xbox one failing to keep up with fps and resolution's the ps4 is achieving already ... I can bare 720 & 900p, but what with tomb raider at 30fps... Thats actually effecting game play now.. Unacceptable. I would not be surprised if the slims in
    a couple of years have a gpu boost. The gap will only get bigger..

    I dunno guys, i loved my 360, though i really feel ms have lost there way this time round...
