Only guide I could find to get this controller apart for my son. Now have to find someone to resolder the USB c port.

R2 and L2 no response, the board location for button?

Terry - Reply Share

if my remote doesn’t turn on or charge should I change the battery or just throw it away?

Nerdy mom - Reply Share

How much and how can I buy the battery's?

Really sucks that the L2 and R2 modules are all one big thing and not easily repairable. My R2 had a crack near the two screws and I went to Turtle Beach trying to get a replacement. They don't offer parts and I had to resort to superglue. I hope it holds up, but repairability for this controller is pretty low without access to the proprietary parts.
