Remove the four Tri-Point Y00 screws from the back panel of the Joy-Con.
These screws are each 6.2 mm long, but it's still a good idea to keep them organized and make sure they go back in their proper places!

Insert an opening pick into the seam at the bottom edge of the controller (opposite the L and ZL buttons).
Slowly slide the flat edge of your opening pick up the side of the Joy-Con.
Be careful not to slide the opening pick too far inside the Joy-Con. This may damage the inner components. The back panel loosens fairly easily, so not much pressure is needed.

手順3

With the charging rail facing away from you, open the the Joy-Con like a book.
Don’t try to fully remove the back panel yet. There are still two cables connecting the charging rail to the motherboard.

手順4

Use a spudger to gently pry the battery connector straight up from its socket on the motherboard. This will keep the Joy-Con from powering on during the repair.
Use caution while working around the vibration motor cable that runs close to the battery connector.

Carefully flip the midframe over, away from the motherboard, as if you were turning the page of a book.
Do your best not to stress the thin ribbon cable attached to the ZL button during this step.

The ZL button cable is locked in place by a small ZIF connector on the motherboard. Use tweezers or a spudger to flip up the ZIF connector lock opposite the cable.

The ribbon cable connecting the minus button of the Joy-Con to the motherboard runs over the back of joystick. It is possible to remove the joystick without disconnecting this cable, but it's much easier to do so when it is disconnected and out of the way.
