Introduzione

This guide shows how to remove and replace a cracked controller ring shell for your Meta Quest 2 controller.

This guide is written with the right controller. If you're repairing the left controller, you can still use this guide, as the procedure is identical.

    • Use your fingers to slide the battery cover down towards the strap end of the controller.

    • The controller faceplate is secured with adhesive and three friction pegs.

    • Press the edge of an opening tool into the seam between the controller faceplate and shell, near the Oculus button.

    • If you can’t get the opening tool into the seam, heat the area with an iOpener for a minute and try again.

    • Slide the opening tool to the base of the ring shell to loosen the adhesive.

    • Remove the controller faceplate.

    • The three friction pegs should hold the faceplate securely, so you don’t need to replace the adhesive during reassembly. Be sure to firmly press the faceplate onto the controller so that all friction pegs fully engage.

    • Use a Torx T5 driver to remove the four screws securing the controller ring shell to the controller:

    • Two 4.7 mm‑long screws

    • Two 5.9 mm‑long screws

    those top screws in red are in very tight, and at an angle that prevents using a long screwdriver. I've found the only way I could get them out is using a bit, held down by my finger at the appropriate angle, while turning it with pliers.
