      • Use an opening pick to press and hold the release button.

      • Place the back cover over the controller body so the release button cutout is slightly below the release button.

      • The release button is held down when the release pin is protruding from the frame. If the release button falls out of position, put it back and try again.

      • Press and slide the back cover up until the cut-out for the release button is aligned with the button itself.

      • Ensure the rumble motor wires (yellow & white) are fully within the frame.
