4 years later, still a useful video watched it in part before and during a teardown to my own to cut some weight down ended up removing the entire dpi button and middle plastic bit rewatching again after its all put together to see if i can maybe chipm away at it and cut down some more grams im on the wireless version, went down to 92g, so -15 grams

[@mayravixx25]

Definitely gonna have to bookmark this, my G403 is starting to have serious issues with scrolling, 90% of the time it can't tell if it's supposed to scroll up or down and I'm hoping it's just in need of cleaning. If not I'll have to start looking into a replacement

[@marwenhammami9575]

There is a firmware update, just type on youtube : Jo3yization logitech g403 When you open it you can add a little piece of cotton to tighten thefriction

[@Unwanted.A7X]

@@marwenhammami9575 the firmware worked for a while for me... then got worse again.

[@Meru-pv9uj]

i ended up opening it and put some cotton to tight up the wheel (and now it works fine) @@Unwanted.A7X

[@J2ko]

I'm having this exact issue, did cleaning it work?

[@mayravixx25]

@@J2ko Not to my knowledge, no. If anything the issue is just as bad as it was before I tried to clean it. I think the quality control on mine was just shoddy at best, but I can't say I blame it all on logitech since I got mine used from a good friend overseas

[@TheDandyCarrot]

By far my favourite mouse of all time! A shame the scroll assembly isn't easily user replaceable, I have replaced my old G403 (dead middle click) with a G502 X. The G502 X is a fantastic mouse but I already miss the feel of the scroll from the G403! I wish the resistance setting for the G502 X scroll was the same resistance as the G403 then it would be perfect, as it stands the high resistance setting is a little too clicky. Edit: I also miss the braded cable, I know it adds a small amount of weight but the look is far superior to a plain rubber coat!

[@Jeremy-xo2ju]

Hello! Where can I get a replacement for the side rubber grips? I would like to replace the whole rubber part, but Aliexpress usually sells a paste over grip tape which doesn't cover the part above the buttons.

[@chrisdavidpham]

Thanks for the teardown video. My right mouse button was getting stuck. I used a knife to shave off some plastic off of the right tongue, which fixed the sticky click problem.

[@ArashiOdayakana]

Those deeper mouse feet are actually more-bothersome to remove because I can't get that inner layer out, just the cover.. TLDR can't get to the screws. Logitech why you gotta make this a pain for us

[@ShaaayCs]

im planning to restore my old g403 thanks for the vid

[@Beardedbob]

Awesome let me know how you get on

[@mojolotz]

I've got a question, as it is hard to see on the video: My right click on the 403 doubleclicks when fully pressed. I wanted to install some slim material to make it impossible to fully press that button between the switch and the button. To get to the switch i guess i'll have to fully disassemble it? I've only opened it up once and didn't see an easy way to get there. Great teardown btw. Love the thoughts you gave.

[@Beardedbob]

yeah to get to the switches you will need to dig deep.

[@mojolotz]

@@Beardedbob yeah for my purposes i had to order a new one anyway, so have repaired it somewhat by now. It seems like the surrounding material around the button pressing surface has been worn away by use. I put in a plastic film around the switch surface to limit the press depth... we'll see how that goes. definitely an annoying form of wear and tear there.

[@zugdsbtngizudsgbnudsdsoiu]

Thank you, very helpful.

[@revallpan]

can u put the stuff back on at the bottom that makes the mouse slide

[@kaishahadzami238]

I got 2 mouse right now,g102 and g403. Do you know the type of g403 switch is? It feel more comfy when I click instead of my g102 lightsync.I think I'd like to replace the g102 switch to the same g403 switches type

[@Beardedbob]

omron 20m

[@lyndongaming]

video quality is a bit low its hard to see what is happening but otherwise good teardown

[@Beardedbob]

Yeah sorry it’s an older video

[@humorss]

this has to be the best puzzle designed by logitech. so many hidden screw

[@Sadoron007]

Thanks !

[@nathanielbohrer8736]

is there a decent way to fix a scroll wheel? My G403 scroll wheel started stuttering and reversing on me, not sure how to fix and don't really want to buy another one.

[@Beardedbob]

yes you can change the encoder which is what is causing you the problem.

[@FlarkeFiasco]

@@Beardedbob Do you have a link to a tutorial on how to do that? I love my G403, but I'm not sure how to change an encoder. Is that software or hardware?

[@davebtw8084]

i had the same issue. When i try to scroll down it often change the direction... so I tried to disasseble it and clean the scrolling wheel gears and now it seems to be working properly... not sure if this can help you too

[@AintPopular]

What you think might be the problem if i bend or move the cable in certain way for mouse to work or else it'll disconnect? is it the cable or something wrong with motherboard.

[@AintPopular]

asking in general

[@Beardedbob]

Sounds like a break in the cable

[@AintPopular]

@@Beardedbob hmm So in theory wielding other mouse cable would work

[@Terra101]

@@AintPopular Yes

[@hunzhurte]

I removed all the screws but the top half SIMPLY WILL NOT LIFT OFF. I have used increaingly more foece and twisting in all directions of the compass, but it simply does not move at all. What do I do???

[@hunzhurte]

@@Terra101 Nope I can count to four lol. It was just a tiny clip in the center front that broke off. It didn't really do anything anyway

[@hunzhurte]

@@Terra101 Then how do you explain that the mouse opened up? It was completely loose, just the front was hanging on those little clips.

[@hunzhurte]

@@Terra101 No, it was the clips in the front that I told you about twice.

[@LuongTheVinh2024]

Thank you

[@DaniDullaert]

My scrollwheel is not working properly, it scrolls randomly whatever direction I scroll it to and just for a small portion. Anyone know if I will be able to fix this by dissasembling and doing something to it?

[@EvoPortal]

The video quality is terrible, can't see any details.

My mouse is g403 hero I put hotline skates and grips on it but how do I put a hypercord onit I do use a mouse bungee will it fir or wha yerman?

[@Beardedbob]

paracord? do you mean? you need to buy or make one. Yes a bungee can help remove any cable drag or stop it getting in the way

[@noahmoss3615]

@@Beardedbob thanks

[@DeZmanStudios]

One only needs a 1.5 of functioning hands to perform the dissasembly.

[@Beardedbob]

Hehe

[@Metalhead-4life]

Does this mouse suffer from logitechs cheap Chinese switches that only last a couple months like all their recent mice?

[@ArashiOdayakana]

not really.
