My z button presses down and makes the click, but it does not actually send any input to the controller. How do you fix this?
So how do you put it back in like the replacement because I have a controller I'm working with a junker my Friend gave me and I'm trying to fix it the z button doesn't work here is a pic
My bad no pic it's a pelican wireless controller
Does that silver bar on the bottom of the Z button supposed to be there? My Z button does not have that, is it important for the button to have that?
