• Jack lo svelto: Hi guys, I need your help. My JDM 055 has extreme right drift. That is, it remains fixed to the right without trembling, motionless. under the microscope I noticed the lack of capacitors c23 and c24. They may be the cause. I saw that they are connected to the headphone jack input. Can you tell me their value? Thank you.

Xbox One controllers/Xbox One Rapid fire Controllers / Re: XB1 Controller PCB Scans, Traces and Info - 1797 "Elite Series 2"

« Last post by Worf on August 28, 2025, 09:11:15 AM »

Hi, I have a controller here that works perfectly well with a cable. However, once the cable is unplugged, it doesn't work wirelessly. The battery is fine. I suspect there is an issue with the BQ chip and would like to check if voltages are present when the USB cable is plugged in. However, since the BQ chip is facing downwards on the bottom board, I can't probe it. Which test point do I need to make jumper wires from the top board to the bottom board?

Xbox One controllers/Xbox One Rapid fire Controllers / Xbox One S 1708 MCU SOC gradually overheating

« Last post by kevOnAcidMods on August 19, 2025, 12:14:31 AM »

This is quite concerning for me, my controller 1708 is working normally, buttons, rumble, impulse, headphone port, bluetooth, wireless connection, all good. But it suddenly heats up, gradually that I can feel it while playing games. This has never happened before and I know this is not normal. Even my batteries are hot too.
I have 3 sets of batteries, eneloop, energizer and Duracell. Still does the same thing.

Tried using usb cable without batteries, still overheats.
Tried wireless adapter and bluetooth. Updated the firmware. Overheats
I noticed that when I leave it until it disconnected and turned off it keeps heating up. But If I remove the batteries and put it back without turning on it does nothing.

I think the part was the SOC board. The one with metal shielding.

So... is this fixable?
Or is it dying?

PS4 Controllers/PS4 Rapid Fire Controllers / JDM-011 + JDM-040 no charging help.

« Last post by nrd01 on August 16, 2025, 10:37:50 AM »

Hi All,
I have a no power / light issue with x2 controllers, JDM-011 and JDM-040. I have inspected the boards and there dont seems to be any blown chips or any visual damage.

I have checked with a usb meter connected to the laptop, the JDM-011 draws voltage arond 5v and 0.777a. So it seems like its charging.
Conencting the charging port board to the usb meter seems to be ok, as the meter shows 5v / 0.0016a draw.
Holding down the Reset button the 5v remains but the amp drops to around 0.0237a, so the reset button seems to be responding if that makes sense.

When connectnig the charging board to the mainboard, the BD9200 4262 chips gets very hot. Could this be faulty and should I replace it? and do you think it will fix the issue and it will power on?
I am also looking to replace the ribbon cables and charging ports as they ribbon connecters look like they are peeling away, avoid the risk of them shorting out.


The JDM-040 draws no power, doesnt show any movement on the usb meter. Conencting the usb charging board disconnected, the usb meter amp registers 0.000a compared to just pluggin in the jdm-011 board alone, could the usb port be faulty on the jdm-040? hopefully it is a quick fix if so. Anything else I can check but since the port looks like it not charging im not sure what to test check next?

I can post picture if need.


Appreciate any help.

Thanks.

Hey RDC,

While replacing my left thumbstick, a few traces were mangled, causing the LSC line to get grounded. To fix this, I cut the trace around where it was grounded, and decided to jumper the connection from SoC pin 58 to the top left LSC pin with the closest I could approximate R16 (10 and 22 Ohm resistors in series). After this, while there is continuity, it is detected as permanently active. I checked with my multimeter, and I get around 0.33 V instead of (what I assume should be) 3V.

Any ideas what the issue could be? Thanks in advance.

I need help with my BDM-020 motherboard. When connected to USB, it blinks orange twice. When I connect the battery, it doesn't blink, and the computer displays an "unknown device" error. I've already replaced the DA9087 chip and the USB port, and it's still the same. Can anyone help? When I connect it with a cable and battery, the DA9087 and the capacitor underneath it heat up.

Looking to save my BDM-020 board 



* Left stick stuck in this position & L3 button doesn't function when pressed

* Right joystick is fine, nothing wrong on that side.

* Couldn't find any shorts and the points that need 1.8v has them.

* Tried 2 sets of brand new joysticks to rule out any faulty joysticks (all were fine)




Thanks to all who are able to help

Hello, The touchpad on my BDM040 controller isn't working. Replacing the ribbon cable or even replacing the touchpad doesn't help. Where on the motherboard are the resistor or capacitor for the touchpad and button located? The touchpad LEDs light up, button works but there's no response to touch. Resetting the controller doesn't help.
