Mouse wheel scroll problem fix.
Вставка
- Опубліковано 21 тра 2024
- If your computer mouse wheel is not working properly, rotates but won’t scroll on the screen. Feels kind of loose, sometimes scrolling, sometimes not, you can repair it yourself. I’ve tried to use WD-40, electronics cleaner, squeezing the rotary encoder, compressed air, but nothing worked for me. However, increasing the size of the mouse wheel shaft fixed the scroll problem. I’ve used a plumber’s tape, but you can use Duct tape, electrical tape, or any other tape to make the wheel a little thicker.

Teflon tape worked perfect. Was considering throwing the mouse away but this was super helpful! Thank you!
Excellent. Worked perfectly using Microporous Surgical Tape out of the first aid box. Great to have the scroll wheel back in action.
Good to hear it!
when it started working ahaa moments for user
using tape around the shaft is a great solution.
it worked perfectly. thank you so much.
Glad it helped
OMG, cannot believe it actually worked. I was just about to give up and start looking for a new wireless mouse because opening up the mouse and cleaning all the lint inside did not fix the problem. Had some plumber's tape on hand and used it as in the video, and now the scroll wheel works. Thanks a lot!
Good to hear it!
Thank you so much for this video. ive been struggling with my mouse for a while and your humble and to the point video was the answer i needed. thank you so so much
Glad it helped!
Thank you! The tape trick worked and I would have never figured what was the problem if not for this video :)
Glad it helped!
Well, I at first just cleaned it and that worked for that particular mouse as it had some hair + dust all over the scroll wheel. Thank you for taking the time to make this tutorial and let us save some money from buying a new mouse :D hope you have a lovely day! ❤
Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much! It worked perfectly with the Teflon tape on a wireless mouse (Hama AM-7300) 😊
Glad it helped!
Thank you! The final fix worked! Increase the shaft size worked for me! 🥰
Excellent!
NAHHH, i found others video fixing their mouse but my mouse just broke cuz their fixing is hard, and this video makes my mouse fix cuz he fix easy. this video is great bro thanks
Thank you so Much , Your video helped me a lot and saved me from buying another mouse
Great to hear!
Thanks because your video encouraged me to try and fix my mouse insted of discard it. In my case, a wireless Genius, the encoder was rolling smooth, nothing seemed to be malfunctioning, so I decided to use a Wahl oil (yes, the electric hair clipper) on it, and it started working again from almost being unusable. Afterwards, I removed the excesss of oil and got back to work :)
Good to hear it!
ty for your video :P you also help me selffix my 20$ mouse
Really helpful, i couldn't find Wahl oil tho, so I used cooking oil, and it still worked fine. Thanks for the inspiration.
Thanks man.....your video still is a life saviour!🤗
Glad to hear it!
The tape trick actually worked! Thank you! 👍
Great to hear!
Thanks I was able to fix it after watching your video
Thank you for this great demonstration!
Glad it was helpful!
my days of trying to fix my Razer Viper mini leads to cleaning dust from the wheel, to noticing the lack of resistant of the scroll wheel and ended w/ the same treatment. it seems like the wheel shaft being dislodged case the wheel to slip and lose contact why the scroll jumps back and forth. cool!
The plumbers tape worked like a charm!!!!
Good to hear it!
Thanks for the video. It helped to find the root cause of the issue. Tape didn't work properly. So, I used thread instead and my mouse working perfectly now.
Thanks for sharing
This is the solution that worked for me. New Hama mouse started having scroll problems after 1 week of heavy use. I guess germans don't make things like they used to...
It works for me. Also using plumber's tape. Thank you!
Excellent!
Thanks! Useful video
The only way that worked for me, thanks a bunch ❤❤
Glad to hear that
Thank you for sharing this video. I fixed my wireless logitech mouse(M275) the same way. :)
Good to hear it!
tried it with some paper tape and it worked! thank you!
Awesome!
Thank you, it such a pain when come to scroll button mouse broken 😮💨
thanks i was trying to figure this out for a long time
Glad I could help
Still working bruh with my logi g703 because of you. Thx you sir!!!!
Awesome!
Worked for me too! Was going to throw this favourite mouse (Rapoo) but it now has a new lease of life...
Good to hear it!
Coming back to this later, thank you
Good luck!
Ok I tried the ductape.. I helped extend closer to the green wheel but it wouldn’t turn. (It’s a new mouse) unfortunately the wheel scroll is made of clear plastic. Is there a way I can make it work with a plastic wheel scroll…? I hope I’m making sense.
Great fix. I added scotch tape on mine and it worked
Good to know!
Thank you!!!! It worked like a charm.
Good to hear it!
Thanks a lot, the plumbers tape helped😊
Great to hear!
omg!! Thank you so much dude!!! It perfectly works with the Teflon tape on my Genius NX-7000 T__T thank you so much!!!
Good to hear it!
That tape idea worked in first try I was about to throw my mouse but now it's working fine .. thankss
Great to hear!
What if the green mini wheel spins but it still doesn't scroll? Like it only goes sometimes. And usually I kinda fixed it, then I scroll for flawlessly for 5 seconds and then it is busted again.
Edit: Okay, I had to fix the green mini wheel casing. Glad I didn't break my mouse and fixed it. Thanks for your video.
Hey it worked!! Thanks a lot for the video❤
Good to hear it.
Thank you!!! It worked for my HP wireless mouse!😃😃
Good to hear it!
Omggg that seriously works , thank you so much .Love from India
Good to hear it!
Thx.... basically what I did though instead of that because it didn't work as well kept slipping anyway was cut the tape about the size of the hole or a little bigger, basically a square, layed that over top of the hole where the wheel goes in, then attached to push the wheel through it.......works perfect 👌
Thanks for sharing!
great idea. wish I would have read this before I fixed mine.
definately helped me thanks a lot
Glad to hear that!
The tiny shaft of the wheel is hexagonal shape, and fixs in the hex hole, but with the use, the plastic cornes get round so the tape trick works fine, thanks!
Cool, thanks!
bro you really helped me fix my wireless mouse.
Good to hear it!
It fixed my wireless mouse....using a Teflon tape...Thank you...
Excellent!
Hello Slava, l have another question about my Lg fridge drain pan can you look at your video about How to read LG diagnostic . I posted another question
thank you! Worked perfectly!
Glad it helped!
Thanks for the idea! I used masking tape and it works like a charm :)
Good to hear it!
Went to try this on an Onn. mouse, but there are no visible screws on the bottom. The feet are plastic, and peeling back the corner damages the plastic, so I'm not sure if there are screws to remove underneath, meaning this fix might not be possible on models like this. Granted, the mouse itself costs about $12 these days, but I'm more annoyed by the disposal requirements of electronics than the costs of a new one.
Please let me know if this worked for you as well. If not, how did you fix it?
Thank you very much. My scroll wheel was acting weird but it's fixed thanks to your video.
woah tBeside from the fact I need to put tape is that the small metal is crooked that is why it is not moving,but thank you so much mate!!!
Thankyou very much for me the tape method works 😊
Good to hear it!
You will be now known as the grand mouse saver🤣
Worked for me! Mine was skipping randomly. Fixed my double click issue as well.
you are a lifesaver
Glad it helped!
Simple and effective tutorial, will try on my non functional scrolling mouse.
Good luck!
Wonderful help
Glad it helped!
thanks brooooooooo my second wheel was just loose though but thanksssssss
Thanks bro, It scrolls like new now.
Great to hear it!
Thank you
Thank you you solved my problem bro
Awesome!
both my wireless default mouse and -just found out when trying an alternate- my wired mega mouse -light changes every few seconds- only spins, like some kid toy; another way of calling it "not biting" like its supposed to. I even opened the wireless one, couldn't figure out what to do. I guess Onn mice suck.
i spilt wateer on my razer deathadder v2 pro and now the scroll wheel doesnt work at all. is there a way to fix that?
Really helped, thankss..
Glad it helped!
Corsair does this on purpse, i've had 3 mouses that have eventually after about 5 months had this issue.
Nice instruction.
Glad it was helpful!
Good .. its work. Thanks
thanks it really helped
Glad to hear!
Thanks bro, i am a lefty gamer and i have trouble finding good mice that are somehow symetrical let alone good gaming lefthand mice in a reassonable price range.
this video helped me put back in track my favorite mouse which even thou is about 10 years old still outperforms the chinese c**p i can afford these days.
Good to hear it!
I had a different problem with my hp wireless mouse, the whole part which goes inside the scroll wheel sensor thing was broken off somehow.used super glue to stick it back on it its place
thank you it work on me. i think i can use glue but it works when i used double sided tape.
Great!
My shaft broke and just need this kind of teflon fix for temporary fix until my new mouse wheel come. It works like a charm i even wouldnt change it if it continue to work like that lol. That soo nice, thank you very mutch
Good to hear it!
Just now applied the teflon in the Dell KM5221W - perfect :-) ... but isn't in fact better in first case of this happen to GLUE IT ? but Loctite isnt good for plastic? Will see if it will survive...
(fact it I use the dell KM5221W combo only for 1 month probably, and have few spare sets here too, so I was surprised it wears out so quickly, there is some hexagonal or so connection....)
(or glue it immediately when NEW and NOT worn out at all?? ... btw the teflon stickers on bottom covering single screw are useless and mouse moves better without them on my desk)
I was thinking about the glue myself.
As long as the glue is kinda flexible, I think it should work. Because the wheel requires a little movement up and down. And a strong glue will inhibit it.
Thanks a lot ❤
You're welcome 😊
in my case the mouse wheel rotates backwards from its direction and because of that the wheel doesn't work properly, can this method also fix it ?
yeah if it jumps try it, sometimes 8 out of 10 the mouse wheel shaft gets dislodged or its material wears and the surface lose contact , so tape works
this is best solution. old logitech's laser scroll mechanism way much better than this new mechanical system. faulty in production i think. because all series with this mechanism are faulty. specially if you use scroll wheel very fast finger movements.
thx man
I have the same problem with a hp x220 gaming mouse can you tell me how to fix it? Edit: this might work with it just I might break it
i have an adorable little "mouse mouse", as i like to call it - my mouse looks like a little hamster! i was having this problem and i was so sad because i totally thought i'd have to replace him :( but once i opened him up for surgery, all i had to do was jostle that little gear a bit and it went right back to scrolling normally! thanks for your help! :)
Good to hear it!
helped alot, but my problem was the the part that went into the thingy broke off
Thanks a lot. It really works with my Logi M185
Great!
tnx man lov u
Sadly I was not able to fix mine. I think the sensor is broken.
Must be appreciated
God bless ur soul.
I can't take the entire wheel out on my mouse but one of the sides has come loose of the bit it connects to. Does anyone know how to solve this problem?
Why not just super glue the wheel to the rotary encoder eliminating the chance of slip?
When you click on the wheel, it should have unrestricted movement up and down. So I suppose, a flexible (silicone-type) glue may work. But not the super glue.
@@Your-Self micro switch is normally the other side and just a tilt movement, the axle mounts allowing for this.
thank you, but there is no like thumb only thumb down.👍So here is my thumbs up. I
see that on other peoples sites. Maybe you guys need to report that. your presentation
was very good.
Thanks for the info
it works
Good to hear!
in my case i have a wired mouse, i found out tht the mouse's wires were touching the scroll wheel which made it hard to scroll
Thanks for sharing.
whats the outro song?
It's called Move-Out ua-cam.com/video/Sqk3B2041uk/v-deo.html
how did you remove the wheel
I lifted the mouse wheel from one side... the opposite side from the green cogwheel.
Mine got fixed after clicking in this video.
Turns out mine didn't even need the tape, it just needed 5 years' worth of dust and hair removed🤣
Err, the shaft on my scroll wheel is too short
I just used some superglue in there, works just as well now
The super glue is kinda brittle and may crack.
I was actually thinking of using a Hot Glue Gun instead.
@@Your-Self the thing is that didn’t have the right tape on hand, I just needed a quick fix to keep working, I’ll update you when/if it may fail again
I uhh, maybe heard a crack sound and now it’s spinning with no friction. I might have broke the wheel. Help lol
i cant find any screws
Did you check under the rubber feet?
seems better to just buy new mouse at least if it's wireless as they have a certain lifespan anyways
Look. I mean, if you're gonna have to go through all this trouble just for the mouse wheel and you have a cheap entry level mouse like this, just buy a new one and save yourself the hassle
You are correct.
But the idea of this video is that you can fix any-price mouse the same way yourself.
