Introduction

If your TPC-Q044 trigger button starts failing when using your controller, you may want to think about replacing the component. The failure may be a result of a loose spring or a broken latch. The replacement of the circuit board is not too complex. You will need the indicated screwdrivers and a spudger to complete this task. There are no warnings or potential hazards when replacing the pad.

Step 5

              Trigger
  • Grasp the trigger with one hand while pushing against the outer wall of the shell.
  • Apply pressure, pulling the wall away from the trigger.
  • Remove the trigger starting from the freed edge.
  • The spring-rod assembly can easily come apart. Inserting the large end first during reassembly may make the process easier.
