1.Take your PH 00x50 screwdriver and unscrew the four screws holding the controller. All four screws are located at the back of the controller, two at the top of the controller and two at the end of each handle of the controller.

2. Take the prying tool and lodge it into the side of the controller to unhook the plastic. there are 5 locations to unhook the controller, the first four is around the corners of the controller and the fifth is located at the audio jack. (Note: When the prying tool is in the controller make sure you go around the controller to make sure the plastic hook doesn't go back into place.)

1. When the controller is open you will see a White cable connected to the case and the board. Disconnect the cable from the board slowly. (Note :It must be slow because the copper that makes contact with the board can break very easily.)

2.When the cable is disconnected, Unplug the battery from the board and unscrew the screw that holds the plastic battery holder. take out the plastic battery holder and leave it to the side .Now unplug the cable located above the board .This blue tag is the touchpad cable. (Note: Make sure you push the cable above out of the hole in the chassis because it can casually get caught by other plastic parts.)
