I did that without unlocking any cable.
awsome video, sl and sr buttons are simple and basically more of the same. Took me just over 2 hours 30 for 2 joycons.
Like Switch OLED
Ok um... It does not charge, like it recognizes the controller, and i can play in handheld, it just dont charge for me......if anyone got any information Pls pls help me!
Just try unplugging and replugging the battery connection
@SirJackII Yeah, but i had to replace the battery, with on of my old ones, because the original one i ripped out wrong, so i had to break the holder out too, so it could just be damaged, or i need to charcge the battery, which i cant
I was watching this while acknowledging how I goofed up on the screws, my screws grinded just because I used a 1.6Y screw driver
Thanks, I used your guide to switch a board, I´ve only kept the Vibration motor and the IR receptor from the botton because were very hard to change, everything else I used from my Yellow Controller, after the change all works but funny enough it detects it as a red joy-con and not yellow. Does this "color" info comes imprinted in the board or could it be because of the IR that I didnt changed?
The colour information is on the board haha, you can change it on a Windows PC using Joy-Con Toolkit
Just finished reshelling mine. Accidentally broke the button on the ribbon cable while putting the zl button down. Needed to wait for the replacement. And accidentally pulled the wire on the wifi board. Waited for the replacement as well. After all that, it was a satisfying little project.😆 Definitely a learning experience.😅😁
These DIY tutorials are awesome! If anyone finds DIY tricky, I offer professional shell swap services-happy to help gamers customize their Joy-Cons hassle-free! 🎮✨
This was the most stressful thing I've ever done but thank god for your tutorial being easy to follow because I would've never been able to swap out my joycon shells at all
Thank you so much!
Did this without tweezers, welcoming a set of glacier blue joy-cons to the family. iFixit guide was confusing so I looked up a video to show me better. Absolute legend!
Thanks to video i did mines i always wanted do it had my switch for almost 2 years i always thought it was hard but your video makes it look so easy I got the atomic purple cause it reminds me of the color gameboy & the clear purple 64 contoller but i accidentally lost a small part that goes under the trigger ZL looks like a small black dot it went flying since is so small i couldn't find i was going crazy but i remember i had an old controller that didn't work so i open it saw that reset button look exactly like the piece i lost only a lil bigger i grind the bottom cause it wasn't fully flat i put it on it fit like a glove put it together works fine & looks awesome thanks for the video...
This was extremely helpful! Much better than the extremeRate tutorial for switching JoyCon shells 😁
i know this video is years old but it helped me successfully swap my shells with zero technical experience. took me about 3 hours for both. thank you so much!! ☺️
thank you so much! it took me 2 hours but now i am so happy with my new joy con color. Great tutorial!
after watching i understand why you do the right joycon first. the left is so much easier to do
4 years later, this is still the best and most complete tutorial for Joy-Con disassembly and reassembly. Great work!
i hate your music, rtyme is so fucking fast not good man. i lost my spring twice cause this. but good tutorial, next stop using fast music
Where did you buy the joy con shell?
thank you so much! this was a pleasure to follow along with. good vibes and dummy proof
Looking forward to do this the joy cons that came with the switch is so ugly thanks for a nice video keep it up🤘😎
Thank you for this! I now know not to do this. To scary. I would probably end up damaging something in my new switch. 😅
Hello! Having some issues with the left joycon for the zl, l and arrow buttons. I can get the joycon to recognize the switch and the side battery works. But I'm having no luck with the recognition of the - button, zl, L or arrow keys. I've tried reinstalling it about 5-6 times at this point but I dont know if I've somehow messed up the cable. Any clue on what could be the issue?
Sounds like it could be an issue with the ribbon cable not being seated in properly. I’d recommend unplugging and replugging each ribbon cable. The more unlikely problem could be that you tore all the ribbon cables a small amount which would require new parts. Ribbon cables are very sensitive and if seated even .01% incorrectly they may not respond.
@@NotJuanGonzalez Yeah it does turn out the cable of the side Zl ended up getting pinched when I rehoused it and it got scratched as a result. I ended up re-buying a new left joycon and re-doing the mod. It turned out perfectly the second go-around thanks to my numerous mistakes from the last mod. You learn a lot fiddling with things.
Beat the crap out of my inner joycon guts doing it but so far it still works! Appreciate the tutorial!
Thank you it worked
i’m really nervous to take my joycons a part even thought i want to buy new joycon shells. last time i took a part my switch light, it never worked again. even with countless times taking it a part and trying to fix it again. i’m afraid of them not working anymore once i take them a part and everything being creaky and loose
this shit is not for the faint of heart
I’m never fuckin doing this shit again
Just swapped my shells and sticks for some NES style/Hall effect sticks and this video was so excellent at helping. If you’re questioning whether or not you can do this, you probably can. Just go slow and be patient. It’s quite forgiving.
YOU SAVED ME TWICE THX A LOT MAN
You need to be specifiying the lengths of screws that go where during reassembly. It's not even funny how many slight warps I've created in my plastic because you were deliberately opaque.
If you plan to do this you should be aware of the different sizes and organize your screws to know where they originally went.
Right, and I'm saying a beginner tutorial should either be highlighting where specific screw lengths should go or state up front exactly what you said. I shouldn't have to go into comments for a solution, nor should I be finding out there are different lengths midway through following along.
I've just used this tutorial to change the shell on my right Joycon. This video explained it brilliantly, but it was a very fiddly process for my first time. Now on to the left Joycon.
Just did this. Really easy to follow and not as intimidating as it i thought it would be
And here i thought reshelling my joycons would be a like taking a pill. Not rocket science
Yo I just wanna put this out there, for anyone having trouble putting in the ribbon cable that's connected to the back of the battery holder. What helped me (since I'm left-handed and using tweezers with my right hand was a complete nightmare) was to unscrew the ribbon cable from the holder, insert it onto the motherboard FIRST, then re-screw it to the battery holder properly and put it back together. Voila, you got it. Hope this helps any lefty people out there that's struggling to swap out their right joycon shell. Peace!
damn i was so confident i could do it… i broke it
Do you by any chance offer a service where people can send in their joycons to get re shelled or know any reputable people who will?
I got drift after change the left joycon, what posibly a I did wrong?
Thanks jesus loves you amen hallelujah ❤❤❤❤❤
Desisti
I messed up my joycons doing this but the video is really great i just have butter fingers and these parts are easy to break :(
I did mines yesterday under 40 minutes because I didn’t take out any cables at all
After I change my joycon shell my left controller is not working i don't know why I try to unplug the battery few times and it is still now working men I'm sad right now.......I just bought my Switch Oled andI don't like the color of switch oled so I change it to grey and now my left joycon is not working.
Great video, helped me a bunch
im 2 minutes in....this is intense....you should consider being a surgeon....a surgeon on humans
Great video. I’ve taken apart many controllers over the years. Never opened up a Switch until today. I swapped over to some classic SNES. I have to admit it was a bit of a pain in the ass. This video helped though!
each and every spring flung out 😭, gotta order new ones but thanks for the tutorial 13:20 (for next time)
Just changed my shells! This video was so easy to follow and all the explanations helped tremendously!
Replacing the shells of both Joy-Cons can be the most hardest and stressful mission to accomplish.
3:03 i dont care about the Joystick becuse its broken like dryed up and riped 🤓 16:20 smoll tip if it trigers you that the color that slide down doesnt match or the pair ones there is a Programm to Edit it Edit: i got sacond pair in case of something breaks i have something still to play but i did it completly works perfectly fine and funfact i nerver did something like this
