My controller was working normally then it developed the following fault:

Controller ring of lights report that the battery status is low even with new batteries, every 15 mins approx the controller will then disconnect.

I have tried the following:

Many sets of rechargeable and normal batteries. Using the battery case from my other controller. Syncing the controller to my PC. Swearing at it.

The fault stays the same, cannot find any similar problems on the net. Thought it was a loose battery case but its not.

Thanks

As it stands right now i just barely tap the stick, left or right and it travels way past the intended target, forcing another tap the other way to correct it ........... ant ideas?

I bought some replacement sticks for my old controller seeing as how it kept drifting in games and it was just getting worse, so I decided to solder some new ones on ( not new to soldering) as this would be my second project, but first time soldering on a PCB, I thought this wouldn’t be too hard. After a bit I did get both the sticks off ( I felt the solder sucker didn’t work as properly as i seen it done on the videos I seen ) and needed some finesse.

After getting them out I changed also to shoulder tack buttons ( got those to work) and did manage to get the right stick working just fine, but I was left with the left stick not really working properly. I checked on Xpadder and it seems to just be holding onto the right and down ward way, even thought the stick is filly seated straight. I decided to take it apart again and try one of the older sticks thinking it was malfunctioning, but when I got it resoldered again it did the same thing.

I bought a cheap multimeter with the soldering iron and tried my hand and trying to look for the problem, though those videos I looked into didn’t help and from the checking, they all seemed to kinda work from the continuity check on the multimeter ( I couldn’t tell all the ports acted the same way so either I got a bad multimeter or i wasn’t using it correctly.

In final I might try to unsolder it again today and clean up the board, but if someone has any idea why it’s being stuck like this and not in center would help alot. I am at a loss.

I got this controller with my Xbox 360 and I always knew it was custom, but I did not know who did it until yesterday - it turns out to be an Evilcontrollers custom controller. Now that I know who made it, I am wondering which one I have - mainly so I know how much of an unfair advantage I have in local multiplayer Halo games since you can’t readily tell ;).

I cannot show the PCB as the warranty plug is a superglued plug holding the PCB into the case. Until I find out how to remove this (or grind it down WITHOUT killing the PCB), I don’t have any meaningful board photos to show. I do have a little legwork to show for and I have narrowed it down to a Nomad or a MasterMod V1(?). It doesn’t have adjustable triggers, so that quickly eliminated a 3rd possible controller.

How can I tell which version I have? It isn’t particularly valuable compared to a Scuff, but it’s a neat controller to have around.
