GameSir X5 Lite: GameSir X5 Lite - How to remove hidden front spine cover?

Thu, 11 Jun 2026 17:32:56 -0700

I am following the Action Button Replacement guide for the GameSir X5 Lite, but I've encountered a missing step. To fully disassemble the controller and remove the internal screws, I need to remove the plastic cover on the front side of the spine/extender.

I've tried prying it, but it's very difficult and I'm afraid of breaking the plastic or the internal clips. Does anyone have advice on the best prying point or a specific technique to safely remove this front cover? Photos of the clip locations would be extremely helpful.

GameSir Nova 2 Lite: Right trigger design flaw?

Tue, 02 Jun 2026 13:57:38 -0700

The design of the slide switch to enable short trigger/rapid trigger pulls has a flaw in the design is that over time the physical stopper becomes a cantilever point. The point of stress is now put upon the hinge point and it will begin to stress crack and break if the user keeps pulling hard with the same amount of force that would be used when rapid trigger switch not engaged. Is there anyway to repair or replace the hinge?

8BitDo Pro 2 Wired: Shoulder button membrane switch won't stay together

Sun, 10 May 2026 04:06:59 -0700

Hi guys. First time posting so sorry if I'm stupid and didn't attatch the image properly.

I took apart my controller cause r1 wouldn't spring back and discovered the pad fell through the slot of the membrane. (right one in the image, left is intact) I tried putting it back up but it just falls through again when pressed. I've never dealt with membrane switches before so please tell me if i'm missing somthing.

I found a post here on the forum where someone else had the same sholder button problem and a recommendation given was to order new membrane and replace it. But op hadn't opened it yet and didn't return with updates so i thought i should ask if i can fix it on the spot first before ordering, just to save myself the shipping time.

Thanks in advace

Logitech RS50 Base: Where I can buy the plastic guides that secure the base to a rig

Sun, 10 May 2026 02:24:44 -0700

The plastic guides that go between the metal plate that holds the steering wheel base. To mount the base to the rigs bucket style seat broke, because my metal plate didn’t had all the 4 holes lining up with the metal plate. The pattern is different and I only could put two screws instead of 4 so the wheel got lose and broke the plastic guides.I decided to use the clamp but I want to replace the guides and don’t want to use the warranty just for that. Do you guys know were I can find them even aftermarket maybe could do. If there is no og parts yet. Thanks in advance

Scuf Instinct Pro: Wireless connection issue - no longer syncing

Mon, 04 May 2026 08:09:40 -0700

So I had a person attempt to repair the stick drift issue it was having. On return, the repair person said that the wireless wouldnt work for them with their xbox ( this was working before I gave it to them) and they said it was never set up for xbox...
Im looking at the instinct and the ps version and I think they went through and did the repairs of the ps5 on the instinct... but I am unsure about its wireless sensors. the button does engage and light up, but no devices, windows, ps, or xbox can see it anymore.

Any suggestions on what I should focus on? or what to check to see might need to be replaced?
