Product Description

Now available for your delight and convenience, the hard to find tamper resistant torx screwdriver size 8. Has a small hole in the tip, to bypass the post in a tamper resistant torx screw, like the ones found in the OEM Microsoft wireless controller for the xbox 360. Works perfectly on all the screws in the Microsoft Xbox 360 wireless controller. Screwdriver handle is MUCH easier to use and provides much more leverage than L key style wrenches provide. Ease of use plus a low price gives you a great value! The quality you need in an affordable design.

Worked great -- saved me $50 bucks on a new controller

It happens to the best of us. My Xbox 360 controller was sitting on my coffee table. I accidently knocked over a glass of soda and the controller was hit.

I was able to dry the surplus soda off the unit, but the buttons immediately became sticky and slow to respond. I figured this would be an easy fix, so I came to Amazon to find an Xbox 360 controller screwdriver.

I placed my order and received it in just two days.

Opening up the controller took just a few minutes. I gently unscrewed the security screws as to not strip them. The controller loosened up, but took a little massaging due to the dried soda.

After opened, I cleaned the controller housing with water, cleaned all the electrical contacts and buttons with 50/50 alcohol and water. I was also able to clean out all the crud that builds up between the two haves of the controllers.

I blew out all the extra water using a hair dryer. I let the housing and buttons sit for an hour.

I put the controller back together in reverse order and everything worked beautifully. No more sticky and slow responding buttons.

At $5 bucks, you cannot go wrong. As the title says, I saved $50 bucks.
Great screw driver for unlocking any xbox 360 controller

Perfect Xbox 360 controller screwdriver. I've used it for a dozen or so mods thus far.
Gets the job done!

Reviewer: amazoner,
its simple, handle may be a bit slippery but it does what its supposed to do, open a 360 controller. quality itself is great, used it a couple times and its still in good shape. and for $1.50 you cant go wrong, its a smart buy.
it does the job

Reviewer: F. Bejerea,
i used this to open an xbox 360 controler because I had some cat hair stock inside...and it worked. the only thing is that I did't see the screw that's inside the battery case(it is covered by a sticker with the controler's code)...so it took me a wile to open it...but that's not the screwdriver's fault :)
Perfect screwdriver for disassembling Xbox 360 controllers

My son's sticky hands eventually led to sticky buttons on our Xbox 360 controller. I used this screwdriver (which was economical and quickly delivered) to easily disassemble the controller. A little cleaning of the buttons, holes and rubber parts with a Q-tip and a little Simple Green (you might avoid alcohol, as it may damage the rubber parts), and our controller is good as new!

Don't forget that 360 controllers have a hidden screw in the battery compartment under a sticker. Probe a little with the screwdriver and you'll find a depression where the screw hole is.
