Will one of the D-pads from the Xbox One controller model 1698 fit and work with the Xbox One-S controller model 1708. I have been looking all over the net for a replacement D-pad and other buttons like the RB, LB Bumper setup and I have had absolutely no luck finding replacement D-pads or other buttons specifically designed for the Xbox One-S controller. I would greatly appreciate your help.

My D-pad was not working properly so I dropped drops of alcohol and other cleaners to fix the issue since the screws inside my controller were stripped and I was unable to open it and at the beginning it worked but then It started failing again so I did it again and this time the left direction is dead. I sent it to be repaired and they told it couldn't be salvaged yet they repaired the thumbsticks just to force me to pay them.

The D-pad on our controller sticks. I disassembled the device and discovered one of the small metal pieces that are supposed to spring back after the button is pressed has been deformed. I will need new ones, but I don’t know what to call the part or where to get it, but I’m sure it’s pennies? Any suggestions? I’d add a photo if I could here.

Search for “Xbox One Controller Replacement D-Pad Button Metal Dome Conductive Film Sticker” on Amazon, NewEgg or Ebay. Should cost 5-10 bucks. Cheaper if you get it shipped from China, but takes forever.

I too have disassembled a controller to discover that this is the cause of the D-Pad not functioning on one side. I am however unsure of how to remove the damaged part as the guide only covers removing the D-Pad itself.
