To remove the faceplate of your Xbox Duke controller and access the internal hardware, follow this guide. This guide is a prerequisite to all other Xbox Duke repair guides that require accessing internal components like the buttons, the potentiometers, motherboard, etc.

Tools: Phillips #1 Screwdriver

Step 1

• Remove the seven black 8 mm screws holding the two halves of the Duke together using a Phillips #1 screwdriver.
• NOTE: To reach the deeply set screws, use a longer screw driver or a 4.0 socket bit in addition to the PH1 bit.

Step 2

• Remove the two halves of the Duke, placing the top plate face-down so the buttons don't fall out.

Conclusion

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.
