This eBay Xbox Controller Had More Problems Than I Expected

Wrong thumbstick caps, a missing headset jack, and disconnected rumble-motor wires—this eBay Xbox Series controller had a few surprises inside. Follow along as I test the controller, inspect the previous work, install a replacement headset jack, resolder the motor wires, fit the correct thumbstick caps, and calibrate the right stick using Xbox Accessories on Windows. Correction at 3:18: I say “TMR,” but the installed stick modules are Hall Effect, as corrected on screen.
