So I got a used Xbox off Craigslist and some of the remotes had battery acid corrosion on them. So I clean them with lemon juice and now nothing happens when I try and turn them on nothing happens. NOTHING!!!!! Please help!!!!!
Is this a good question?

Hi you would need to dismantle the controller and clean the battery contacts with isopropyl alcohol and a toothbrush, if they are really bad and that doesn't work, then you would need to buy replacement ones
Was this answer helpful?
The battery contacts are the metal part where the batteries sit and if they look corroded then most likely you would need to purchase replacement ones and solder them on

Were are the battery contacts and how do I know if they are bad? Does it make a difference if I'm using AA's or not?

Yes you need to use aa batteries, along with the battery shell that the batteries fit in to. The contacts are just the metal part where the batteries sit on top of. Make sure they are not corroded or bent otherwise the controller won't be getting power from the batteries
