Hardware nintendo switch pro controller R Doesnt Work

[Xandroz]

hi guys i got a new fake controller xeno blade edition from china, everything working as it should but i got one with a busted R button.
it clicks but it doesnt register.
any component i should look at to replace.

i got several before and no issues, but i came across a faulty one

Buy a regular official Switch Pro Controller and swap the shell

well i bought this now and my R Button Isnt working everything else works.
is there like a capacitor or something that may be busted that needs changing.
or shall i use it as it is.
i will buy an original one later but well at least make good use of this one as well you know

I have Read cases where cables were not connected, open it up and take a look

i did open it up and removed the buttons they dont seem to have anything to be connected to.
all 3 on the top working except this one.
will investigate further will open it once more to see. maybe the R button has a seperate connector

Fake stuff tend to act up like that. I don't think it is worth in investing anything to repair them. But if you insist, then try replacing the R button, its ribbon cable or something else associated with it.
However don't get frustrated if it won't fix up your issue, that's the thing with fake stuff.

well im using it playing some games that the R button Doesnt Do Much, and if it ends up staying that way ill just leave it to be used for emulators.
