Use this guide to replace the scroll wheel board, or the scroll wheel itself, in your Logitech G Pro X Superlight wireless gaming mouse.
If you're having trouble with left and right click (such as sticking), or your scroll wheel isn't working or is unresponsive, you might need to replace the scroll wheel board.
If possible, follow this guide after your battery has fallen below 15% charge—this is indicated when the LED light on top of the mouse is red. While your G Pro X Superlight has a relatively small battery, any charged battery is a potential safety hazard if accidentally bent or punctured.
