When an Xbox Series S or Series X controller stops charging, or charges only while the cable is held at an angle, the charging socket is the first part to check. Spare parts here include a USB Type-C charging contact made for those controllers. It is soldered to the controller's board, so fitting it takes a fine-tipped soldering iron and some care; confirm that your controller belongs to the Series S/X generation before ordering.
