My Naga started to double-click all the time. With your tutorial I was able to open it up and clean the inside. Thanks! Saved me some bucks :)

[@rossf.4323]

This is exactly what was wrong with my mouse---works perfectly once again. Thanks for taking the time to make this vid.

[@Schubbey]

wanted to like but left mouse button not working...

[@ValorousDefined]

took my mouse apart today after using it for 6 years. I retired it and bought a different razer mouse, however I still can't use this new one to play my games with. So I took apart my mouse following your video. Turns out it can get worn out, mine had a little dimple in it causing the click to sound but not actually click. Tiny little groove in the plastic has now been filled with super glue, will update with the results. Im happy with this mouse as it is, its 6 years old. But if I can repair it with super glue im gonna be chuffed.

[@RaethFennec]

Thanks for this video! It made opening the Naga very easy. My roommate's pressure applicator (the little plastic pylon that makes contact with the button actuator) was not broken, but had worn a half-circle into the plastic the shape of the harder plastic button it was pressing down on. I cut a piece of solder wire (for softness) to the width of the button, dabbed it with super glue, and then stuck the piece of wire lengthwise into the divot. I then left it a few moments and dabbed it with a tiny bit of super glue to cover the top. After drying, this took it from a ~1mm concave surface to about 1/10th of a mm convex. The button is still audibly softer than the right click, due to extent of use, but works like a charm again!

[@DonGreen_1949]

Thanks very much for this video. My Razer model is a bit different. It has started losing the click when I'm moving the mouse, so I started shopping for a new one. I looked at taking it apart, to see if maybe there saw some accumulation of dust or something that was causing a problem, but concluded it's impossible to take apart. On a whim, I did a Google search, found your video, and am now emboldened to at least try to see if it can be fixed.

[@DanielRenardAnimation]

Had to solve a single-click-double-click issue with my Razer Naga and looked it up. Realized I had seen this, back in 2013, yet had forgotten where the screws were. Then started to wonder why I had to fix it the last time... then I popped the lid and saw an onslaught of isolation tape on all the wires... riiight, a fault in my mouse cable had me shorten it greatly and solder every wire back. Thanks for the rescue! (twice now, it would seem)

[@Torashmeatball]

I had the exact same thing happen to my Naga, except it was the right click, same piece broke off and everything. Thank you for posting, definitely helps me out!

[@patchwick4343]

Managed to fix my Logitech G600 with your guide. Much obliged. Keep up the good work.

[@lucianthedark]

i had the same issue with mine i gave it to a friend and bought an elite and i just watched this video fixed the mouse and he thought i bought him a new one kudos and thanks man

[@ChrisViral]

Saw the video... bought a new one...

[@brunoviek]

so what?

[@sandreid87]

lol

[@rogerg0834]

omg..this made me laugh hard..cry laughing

[@DaProGamer12]

I mean all you had to do was open it up and blow really hard into the button... it worked for me after 4 or so years of double clicking. Unfortunately I peeled that one part off wrong and had to remove the rest of it so it doesn't move as smoothly but it works XD

[@AJ_R_Us]

@@DaProGamer12 i didn't even open it up...i blew on the opening of the left click button like it was a Nintendo cartridge and BAM...my click feels normal again....too bad i smashed it a few times which now has a loose screw on the inside lol

[@johngood5383]

Respect for not giving up after the first 2 tries dude, I ;eft my naga in my drawer for 5 years i knew a tutorial would be up eventually

[@djloll7742]

Lol me too, I just looked it up and fixed :D

[@SaulMeyersz]

i spilled coffee on my mine it was driving me nuts.. holy shit .. i didnt have the balls to open . but after seeing this . its working good again. thanks so much

[@cokaoffcoke3667]

Saul Meyers same steps?!

[@Rufran2567]

Thanks for this video. This was my first time taking something like this apart and I was perplexed at how the thing was being held together.

[@JMTorresDupri]

Thanks man, I had an "accuracy" problem with my naga, this tuto really helped me.

[@SoHBetaSword]

Thanks for showing how it's supposed to be done! While I didn't bereak mine, my LeftClicl was acting weirdly, sometimes loosing a hold click, only to re-click, or getting doubleclicks at times. It turned out, that some dirt accumulated, an probably shortened the Clicking, with the Mouse now cleaned, I'm testing it's Behaviour to find out whther or not it's still acting weird, and possibly needs a replacement. I'm currently thinking about the Corsair Scimiter Pro as a possible Replacement, and already tried the Titanwolf Gaming Mouse System (that enables Button-Replacement/Configuration, but unfortunately only catches 1 Button-Input at a Time, making it unfit for a lot of Games, for example in Diablo3: Mouse as usual, kills on the NumPad of the Titanwolf, whenever I fire up a Skill, I have to repress the Mousebutton for Movement)

[@RealistReviewer]

I was looking for the snapped bit, after 15 minutes of searching no bits, I realized there was a groove that had worn into the left mouse button stick in the shape of the little white mouse button, that little problem was causing my left mouse not to work, I filled in the groove with some super glue, left to harden, done.

[@robertoaalll]

my problem was similar so i thought it could be it (Mine is a R.A.T 3) but its actually a problem with that white switch you showed, it doesn't click. Any idea on how to fix it if possible? Or even where i can find another similar switch to replace?

[@BitValentine]

Thank you so much for your help, its my 3rd Razor that the left mouse breaks. Luckily all I had to do was clean inside and it works great.

[@heisenfeis]

Thx alot man had this mouse since 2012 and it pooped out on me today (may 2019) and it was worn out in the middle so i had to do what you did at ( 8:05 ) only difference was that i used a lighter and set that little plastic tip a blaze, the plastic expanded due to air bubbles in the molten plastic and gg it works on the first try :D

[@TheRealSowza]

Doing this atm, hope it fixes my almost forgotten and about to go to the garbage moltem :) ITs the best mouse in the house thats why i kept it for so long, always felt bad about get rid of it. Tks very much man!

[@TheRealSowza]

btw, currently, i could only find it for sale at amazon for 700$+

[@TheNameTooSexyToShow]

A quick question (I thrown away 4 slightly expensive mouses so far), I have the same problem from time to time, I click but the left mouse button doesn't work even though the clicking sound can be heard. Or I click and it actually makes a double or multiple clicks, when I put the mouse pointer over a folder or a file and I press the LMB once it actually opens that folder or file. My question is, when I have LMB issues is it because something is broken and I could glue it back? What about the double clicking issue?

[@Dropla]

Welp, you're now my friend. Thank you.

[@AnonYmous-kc9bx]

very useful movie, thank you very much! The piece that pushes on the click switch wasn't broken in my mouse, but it was well used; I glued a tiny piece of wood (taken from a toothpick), now it works again :-)

[@killikab]

I had this same problem, had a chunk out of the left click mechanism filled the gap in it with a little epoxy, works like new just gotta be careful to even it up exactly

[@TheArtisticFox2]

i have a razer naga chroma and sometimes the left click will make a clicking noise but it wont work, could it just be dirty?

[@buborka7441]

Hello Sir. I’m having issues with my right click and my scroll wheel. Basically I have to press really have for the scroll wheel for it to activate and my right mouse button is like kinda glitchy where I sometimes it works and for example when I try to aim it would constantly activate and deactivate while holding down the key. Any advice ?

[@skeetnailer]

That's pretty cool, just broke me left key last night 😝So I'm hoping to see about fixing however I'll probably screw up what is the replacement I would need, mine was the exact same issue as yours

[@baconbankai]

I have a thin crack running almost through the entire LMB on my razer naga. If the crack keeps going I'm afraid I may lose my LMB. Should I be concerned? Is this fixable?

[@koleasert]

Bacon Bankai I doubt it will break, put a tiny bit of super clue on it if youre concerned.

[@Veelya]

Hi Timothy! I have just one question : What was the size of the screwdriver you used to disassemble your mouse?

[@SerKrusty]

Hey there ! i opened the mouse as the video shown, done a little cleaning and... it worked again ! Hope this will help you ^ ^

[@kottonstream9119]

What naga is that. I’ve owned em all and never seen the one you have , the pads on the bottom aren’t there and the mouse bottom is way different t

[@SteamShinobi]

Can you please tell me the lenght of both peices that click into the right and left mouse button? I have to make them from scratch

[@senethys]

I have a strange problem. There is a click on the mouse, but it's not working. After I opened it, meddled with it, and closed up again; it works if I press it extra harder. The normal click remains but it doesn't work. After the initial click I have to apply further force for it to register. Is this the same problem? (It works fine when I press the white tiny part after I opened the mouse.)

[@Spice]

Your problem may be different. On mine, it does something similar, but if i press too hard, the button spazzes out and multi-clicks. The way you fix that is by buying a new switch for it (you can check and see if your local Radio Shack still carries them). What you want is called a "three terminal microswitch," preferably one with all the pins facing down. 13mm x 5mm x 6mm, or something really close to that.

[@Semmatt]

so many years....so many times I try....but I need this video....u are awsome!!!!! 3 min and all goes ok :O thanks a lot xD

[@RofICopters]

so what do i do if my naga's screws were glued in? I think i have the only naga in existence that had this done to it.

[@songersoft]

This happened to me as well. I just had to lick the mouse to undo this effect with another screw driver.

[@rosejannelle5040]

amazing video i like how you broke a bunch of stuff andstill managed to fix it kinda funny

[@moeftw6792]

what is the first screw driver you used to open the mouse up? what kind is it

[@amd098]

Loctite and Zapagap are also great brands of superglue. Give them a shot, I used that to fix my mouse when it broke.

[@matdenn2142]

You better use epoxy than that kind of glue because its brittle and breaks off easily, while epoxy is not. You can also solder plastic even as tiny as that. There is a way to solder plastic which can be as good as the original, don't use soldering iron or any type of equipment which can melt the plastic very hot that it becomes brittle.

[@Jerome-iwnl]

mine clicks but it randomly doesnt work.

[@Anonymous-zd7nc]

i had a different issue with my mouse but you video helped me alot. thank you..

[@alexandrialibrary8152]

Thanks to share m8, really helpful, I'll try it on mine. Best regards from Italy.

[@ademirramirez8902]

Hey Bro, maybe You can help with some problem about my naga, this one was cut with scissors by my kid, so I peeled wires and put them back together by same color, all was great, but i my wife was cleaning my desk and seems that she put some peeled ones producing a shorcut (perhaps) so I tried to do the same as before and now mouse Works partially only, both clicks doesnt work at all, dont know what to do about, if You have any idea what to do about it is much appreciated it, and Your video is really helpful tho, tnx for sharing it, sry for my english, I live in Mexico not really good on typing english... regards!

[@Cypher791]

thanks.. this was such a specific problem i had and im amazed there was a video for it but this helped a lot

[@Sora2314]

I dropped mine hard on accident and the right click didn’t work unless I pressed hard. I blew compressed air inside it and then used my breath and it’s working again!

[@cameronfuhrmangames]

I have a razer naga Molten and the same prob but on the right side. I cant separate the guide from the top to glue because there are side buttons next to the left click and it wont let me separate the two.... any advice?

[@RaethFennec]

There are clips on the sides and the back that you have to press to release the top. I had to push a couple precision screwdrivers between the two plates on the sides to keep them open while I released the back two.

[@hasnolife84]

are both click probes the same length?

[@Mindroach]

Is there a way to bind the left-click to the middle mouse button?

[@07GTCalispec]

Turns out mine wasnt broken. Had no problem clicking but it would drop early when dragging something. Took it apart cleaned it out and no problems as of yet.

[@nfn6250]

i have the original without the Teflon tape where you have to pry the top off and i added the glue and it did work. i recommend y'all try it before you order a new mouse.

[@Pyrexis]

there's no need to unscrew the counterweight as it is only attached to the guide and won't effect the top piece. me I need to do the opposite and add a tiny bit to the clicker as part of it got mashed into dust

[@JulianAbreu]

hey thank you it was verry usefull for some reason the weight fall and it was boincing like crazy, fixed.

[@markeiy4164]

This was the best mouse. I had to settle for a death adder for my new one and it sucks.

[@Shard113]

I hate it how BOTH my nagas ended up like this! And razer markets those with uber life expectancy (especially the Hex). .. BS, my hex's left click died on me after barely 2 years. Sooner than my Naga (the same modell as in your vid), and I was even more careful with my Hex too. ...The thing is that no other manufacturer (to my knowledge) makes mice with this many buttons, of which I am so soooo fond of. :(

[@topherrouleau4232]

the Logitech G600 has 17 buttons. Steelseries might make one as well, but I'm not sure

[@Nixima81]

Yeah this helps a bit. My left clickers always quit on me after a year or so.

[@TheJappen]

The left mouse button doesn't work as it should, I can barely touch it not even rest my finger on it without it click. Should I try this tutorial?

[@lassipls]

2 things then you put the screws back on: Don't fold the teflon tape like that, the dents will stay there. And more importantly, when you start screwing, push the top and the bottom pieces together with one hand while you screw with the other.

[@lassipls]

+lassipls Couldn't fix my mouse after all ^^

[@starwolf2125]

desperately looking for a usb cable replacement for me 2012 naga... any suggestions? (need to cover shipping to greece too :/ )

[@matuspetrik4916]

hey, what size was that first philips screwdriver? screws in my naga molten are behaving like if someone superglued them there -_-

[@xiaoxiao009]

Thanks a lot man! I have the same problem with my right click.

[@jack8698]

U alive?

[@muhammadmubasher8203]

wow he can unscrew like those formula one guys. Thanks mate this helped.

[@Cxnsoleee]

I tried for 3 hours to get my screws out. I only got 2 and the other 2 I think must be glued in. I finally gave up and am about to throw it away.

[@j4y361]

wow i mean i did fix it its just that the teflon tape part is ruined and it feels weird when i put it back. i need help pls

[@Xtester712AKACannedBeans]

***** It happen to me too....

[@skillabeez1]

My left button does "click" but does not work like when I click on wow icon it does not start wow so I am gonna try this I hope it helps..

[@TinyTaurenRK]

what u gonna di if u dont have the plastic under the click? if thats gone can u use something else to fix it or?

[@TheBritishBitsEXTRA]

what if you carnt find the peace of plastic or its jsut warn down

[@nuggetttss1109]

I carefully cut holes where the screws are so I didn't have to keep peeling off the teflon tape to get the screws out. Also, I just replaced my left mouse clicker/button... bye-bye double clicking problem.

[@SerKrusty]

got the same problem, any advice / videos *.* ?

[@Hadord]

thank you, was able to fix my mouse because of this video :D got your self a sub

[@UnrealTournamentSERB]

What's the thing on top its screwed in it's like glass

[@TheKillzone9999]

It worked but the thing at the bottom feels really crappy now.

[@MuskaKillz]

Illuminati knowledge confirmed. Thanks.

[@orke1215]

Guys where do you find those replacement parts?

[@gregorycuevas667]

Thanks man! really helpful for when i get mine in september!

[@khalvino]

my mouse still clicks and the plastic is fine but for some reason, whenever i right click it only will work sometimes

[@STARSMotionz]

Well my razer naga works fine but like i get pissed of since at times when i click once it like DOUBLE clicks for me like twice in one click im like srsly it pisses me off at times

[@tangoalpha14]

same as mine then

[@STARSMotionz]

Daniel Rahmanto i fixed it by rapidly click the button pretty hard but not to hard

[@ribeiroWilliam]

***** what's up mate. there are some videos on youtube teaching how to fix double clicking nagas. i repaired mine by disassembling it and pressing the button insie. then i blowed as hard as i could with the button pressed. i think it was the dust inside the button that was causing the problem. i hope you fix it soon

[@STARSMotionz]

***** to late allready got it fixed.

[@STARSMotionz]

Archibald Cowboy Montgomery well sadly i just had to Clean the inside of it but hey it is like 2 years old now and i have enough Money to buy a new one so i pretty much gave it away since it worked completely fine so i got a new one so with keyboard xD

[@sirjohnbs1447]

I opened my mouse razer imperator and he stopped working, or the light appears please help

[@redzeppelin6]

I can't get the screws out. I think it might be glued in

[@timmer6901]

I guess you would need to find some how to replicate the piece that is broke off and missing. What about something like an old debit/credit type card or something a little thicker like the plastic window from a CD jewel case. For the jewel case idea you would need a rotary tool though. Just fabricate it somehow...

[@christboi100]

and when i lost this broken plastic?

[@iMpacTbySkil]

For me the weight (screw) was broken, vid helpt me opening the mouse and removing broken part xD

[@IWANTABIGBUTTGAL]

Can I send you 3 of them to fix? Seriously.

[@FTW_Wolf]

The micro switches on the nagga's are terrible. no wonder the tortolian's hate them. That being said i have had to replace the clickers from spares from other mice that have a heavy duty action. works great.

[@6105boe]

"And just remove all 4 screws" HAHAHA yeah nope. They're fucking glued in. That's BS why would a company even do that other than to annoy the crap out of customers... If anyone has an easy solution to this I will love you forever just FYI.

[@Love0wner]

same here

[@reoreborn1209]

Same here!Been trying for the past hour to unscrew the fucker. I've tried multiple screw drivers all the correct size etc and they ain't budging :'(.

[@Love0wner]

yeah i had to break it open .

[@Alxz369]

they are super tight you need to get a wrench around your screw driver and turn left, its so tight this is the only way.

[@songersoft]

I had to use a bigger handled screw driver (same Philips head). Also lick the screws.

[@kurosims8861]

mine just did this after 5 years of use

[@sushitrash9911]

my did tthis after 4

[@waszkreslem9306]

mine did this after6...months of use

[@djloll7742]

Nice video bro. thanks!

[@nizmo90]

Lol saw this after I got a new one but I’m Gonna try it on my old naga

[@Zherneb0h]

Thanks for sharing this, helped a lot!

[@djnorth2020]

Avoid Razer Naga (2014) like a plague. First one had the left click, the actual plastic that you touch with your finger... just snapped off within two weeks. Second one lasted two months, same problem. The whole cover that your palm touches is one piece and the edges at the very front, near where the cord is connected, get caught into things and are poor quality and/or bad design. Can't imagine these lasting a year.

[@ryantexada9269]

vastis 2012 is all around better imo

[@DonGreen_1949]

I've had my Razer Naga for 4 years. Whatever you were doing that snapped off the plastic switch cover -- is not what a mouse is supposed to be doing.

[@puggers3387]

my problem is the right button , because i have to hard press the right button to register the key.. im really pissed off to this problem and i dont know how to solve it.. Someone says that it is only a dirt cause to the right button of my razer naga hex.. :((

[@puggers3387]

sorry for my bad english***

[@12chriso12]

perfekt thanks :D work like a new naga

[@Doesyou]

Does anybody know if this could work with an abyssus or no

[@Levowitz]

Thank you very much.

[@JonathanFont]

Thanks! it was very helpful!

[@williamholy6700]

even tho i dont have this mouse i wanted to open mine and i went and i undone the button stickers and stuf wtf there are no screws i have to buy a new mouse now

[@Sharter189]

trying to fix my mouse while its still plugged in and i keep clicking off the video fuck

[@sandreid87]

unplug it? xD

[@chucky21022002]

IT WORKS THANK YOU!!!!

[@sandreid87]

Been having this problem A LOT with Razer Nagas. Bought 5 mice in the last 5 years or so, and all of them either had left or right mouse button problems of some kind (Usually it just brakes) within just a few months. If you ask me, Razer is an expensive but shitty product with too much put in there, so it just breaks. It can't handle simple use. Had a friend who had the exact same problem as me. Then I though: "Razer is shit - Let's try a Logitech MMORPG Mouse!", and it broke just as quickly, too.... Double clicking problems... Then last time I thought: "Hey, maybe it's because I'm buying the cheaper Razer Naga, that it keeps breaking - Let's try the Razer Naga Epic Chroma!" (Which costs twice that of an ordinary Razer Naga I might add) And guess what? The mouse sensor was shit there - The mouse would literally fly all over the screen when I wasn't even touching it - Right off fucking day 1. Like, seriously? I just can't seem to catch a break

[@6ixss]

im gonna buy spare parts.. to be sure.. only 10$ but nice work m8
