How To Fix Sticky Rb Button Xbox One

Xbox One Controller RB button stuck/jammed

So out of no-where as im playing my game on xbox one, I press Rb and it barely responds for a second. I press on it harder and it does almost the same thing. I have to press the RB button really hard at an angle and it hurts. Any help to unjam it or do I need to buy another controller?

Take off the battery cover on the back and you will see a small rectangular shaped hole under each bumper piece in the top right and left corner. Stick a knife or screwdriver in there and you can pop the bumper button back up into place pretty easily. Hope this helps.

Ahh yes. Old faithful, fixed my Elite controller and Day one controller.

I had the same problem. RB fixed itself out of nowhere after 5 months or so

You can try to twist the controller in multiple directions back and forth like you're wringing out a towel. Anything stuck might get loose.

I had the same thing but the little arm connected to the rb button had actually snapped. It may be worth opening the controller up and having a look

Rubbing alcohol also works very well

I took my phone and banged the rb button like 15 times straight and it worked! Controller works but phones cracked.. jk but it worked for me

Hand sanitizer does the trick and evaporates quickly so it doesn't damage the internals. Purell is one of many brands. Pull it in and wiggle button let the alcohol does it's work.

If u poured this into my xbox would it break?

Easy (even if annoying) 7.99 fix from Amazon even get the tools along with the new part. Hope that helps you.
