Introduction

A broken screen can cause problems like blurry images, missing visuals, or touch controls that don’t work. This guide will show you, step by step, how to open the controller, remove the damaged screen, and install a new one.
Before you begin, check for loose or broken glass and make sure the controller is turned off.
