Now I'm gonna change the temperature.. How without changing parts?

Well, I solder at about 310° Celsius, or 600 Fahrenheit. But when you made me a comment telling me I did too hot, it was 450 Celsius. And nope, the controller doesn't seem to work, I don't know why but the rumble motors started doing their thing again.. I think unfortunately that's a dead controller.

Well, here I am now. I reaoldered few points that apparently needed. And it seems the rumble motors don't shake now. Here are few pictures of my modifications. Everything here seem now normal. There is no more pressure on the cables. But, I had the idea to test the cable and here is the current situation. Is that normal? White and green cable doesn't seem to be connected to this port. and black and "gray" are connected to the same, is that the ground ? Last question for now : what precisely those pins are supposed to be connected? I think they now have an issue... maybe desoldering them and solder them again. this ?

No I don't think other functions work... damn. No it's not softmoded yet...

Hi ! Thanks again for taking the time to answer ! I really appreciate. So here is the situation now. It's unchanged. I made the modifications you told me, and the result is the same. The rumble motors are shaking, and it doesn't work. I took a photo to show you the soldering points, and a video showing the result. Don't mind the mess, I turned my gaming room in a "lab" to repair my controller.

Hi, that's my final result. I know, the cable that goes to the right is attached to the wrong pin, I corrected that. So I attached to the third pin of the 3 of the right. The buttons don't work, nothing work, and the second I turn on the xbox, the rumble motors are vibrating. But, the stick isn't moving straight to the down anymore. This issue is "fixed"

here I am now. Without my drawings (maybe cleaner to see) The motherboard isn't very clean but it's second hand, and I'm kinda beginning soldering. Legend : Blue = connection was made Red = should I make the connection ? Those pins need to be connected ? Yellow = what is the purpose of those points ? Are they useless ? If not, where should I connect them ? Did I miss anything on your picture ?

Okay so all the pins you pointed out on the picture are correct, they makes contact. But almost all of them are incorrect on the right side. Let's try to link them

Thanks I watched the video ! Well explained, even if it's in Spanish and I don't get all of it. I'm gonna try later and keep you in touch

I can parameter the temperature of my soldering station, but it was maybe too high... I'm still learning. I'm gonna check the continuity in few hours once work's done and I'm gonna give you more informations. Thanks for your picture ! Also, we can see on the stick soldering points, it seems it's burned. Is it fixable?

Hello everyone, I'm starting this topic because I have some issues with my Duke controller. The screen was scrolling itself, so my first thought was : the stick is dead. I tried to tear down my controller cleaning it very well with alcohol, trying again, same issue. I did tear down an 'under control' brand controller, took the stick, soldered it to the Duke controller. Same issue. I took out again the stick, and tried the controller with absolutly no left stick, and it still had the issue ! I turned on my xbox, the menu was scrolling down. So the main issue doesn't obvilously come from the stick itself. But what can cause that? I will post few pictures of the board of the controller, if you see something than I don't. Also, some soldering points on the stick emplacement on the circuit aren't "metal color" anymore, and it doesn't solder properly. How can I fix that?
