    Assistance needed with xbox one controller

    Whats up guys? So I've stumbled on this site and i was hoping to get some help with my problem.

    So i have an xbox one s controller thats only a few months old and suddenly stopped working. The issue is it turns off saying it has no battery even though fresh batteries have been put in it. I took it apart to look for any issues with the connections for the batteries but everything looked fine to me (i really dont know what I'm doing). But while looking for something i must have accidentally touched "the issue" and the controller worked fine after putting it back together... for about 6 hours, and then the same problem came back. Turns off suddenly even with fresh batteries. Took it apart again and once again i didn't do much but poke around the boards, put it back together and same thing. Works perfectly for some hours and then problem comes back. What could this be? I'm so puzzled by this.. what am i touching thats bringing it back to life for a limited time?

    Any help or ideas are greatly appreciated, i would really rather not buy a new one since this one's only months old. I would've loved to use the warranty but im out of the U.S. so its complicated.

    Thanks!

      I second this idea that you must have a cold soldering joint some where
      Look at the battery terminal and the ON / OFF switch also look at the joy sticks as well

      Also you should use a magnifying glass to look at these joints if it looks dull redo the joints or if you see a lot of flux on a joint redo or cracked joints redo the joint or if some the joint is missing redo the joint

      Where I work we have crane remotes that are very bad about having cracked soldering joint where the batteries are and it does the same thing may work for awhile then shuts off

          Another thing that can help to find any form of a schematic is by looking up controller mods.

          These are from the first model controls and use them as a comparasen.

            those pics show me that battery contact assy does not have strain relieving pins.
            broken solder there would be a prime suspect.
            nice find Drassh!
