Repair Corsair m65 gaming mouse of middle click button

[@Ther0]

resuming one heck of a old video just to thank you. tried everything, only thing i didn't do was blowing AT the switch since it seemed sper clean.. now works like a charm. thanks !

[@normandeineko7584]

Your welcome, glad the video help .

[@urmyuk1]

If anyone wants to replace the switch this is the part 'OMRON B3F-6020'

[@happytrails5342]

thank you

[@pastaguy1232]

exactly what i needed, thank you

[@HanDrolo]

...or order OMRON B3F-6022 if you want a tougher mouse press 1.47N vs 0.98N

[@textech8946]

It's not the same microswitch

[@lambdaman3228]

Thanks! I followed your instructions and fixed my middle click button. I used non-chlorinated brake cleaner to clean out the bad switch. Now it's working like new.

[@normandeineko7584]

Glad to hear it work like it use to. all the best Riley

[@TweakTechNow]

I am pretty sure i fixed my left button double clicking issue. And i hope this can help someone else too. I opened up the mouse to potentially replacing the micro switch because i thought that to be the culprit. But none of the other similar micro switches had this fault, so after further inspection i found that the little white nylon plastic pieces that makes contact with the switches, did not look exactly the same. i could see they were designed to be smooth, making a sliding motion over the switch contact when one actuates the button. But the white nylon plastic in the left click button had a tiny divot in it, causing the action to be bumpy and therefore double clicking. I carefully smoothed out the plastic with a nail file, reassembled the mouse, and i have not had any involuntary double clicking since.

[@normandeineko7584]

that's great news Mindforge. Glad you could correct that problem.

[@mikerosoft1009]

Thanks for the info. I have the m65 elite and sometimes my left mouse button doesn't click unless I press down hard. I haven't opened it yet but I've been thinking about cleaning it or investigating the plastic making contact.

[@froggle611]

Thank you very much, sad that they used such a low quality switch for the MMB. But this will help me extend the life and allow me to fix my original m65 which could barely click with the MMB.

[@OttoGrainer27]

Just a note to everyone, I literally just removed the top cover, lifted the mouse wheel 2mm, used my lungs to blow off any dust inside, and it started working immediately. Didn't need any screws undone, didn't need to unplug any circuits, just needed a clean. My pin wasn't broken, switch wasn't broken, just pesky assorted dust. Damn, shouldn't have skipped that part about the bottom screws at the beginning of the vid. Finally got around to opening up my M65 as of 2019, had it for years, boxed it up when it wasn't going, but I was impatient. There's two layers of cover, the top plastic one came off fine, but I snapped a tiny hooked clip underneath, one of two. Probably should have lifted it with the second layer, with the wires connected. Anyway, snaps back on great and working like gold.

[@normandeineko7584]

Great to hear your m65 is working again .all problem are different . Get yourself a can of air duster for around $7 .you obviously had dust trapped on the sensor which prevented it to work.

[@OttoGrainer27]

Hey man, thanks for the response. I saved this video years back with the full intent on fixing it one day. You helped a lot and I appreciate the advice. Also loved all the background chatter on the vid lol. Cheers!

[@tecnicalk]

If you know how to solder quiet well you can easily repair the tactical switch. I repaired my RGB Sabre mouse today that I purchase on 18 February 2015 at £49.99, saving me £44.08 of same model of mouse on Amazon UK. I'm happy that I prolonged the use of my mouse. The tactical switch I got cost £0.99 on Ebay for 20 pieces at 6x6x7mm it came from China so it took a little while but it works perfectly. Hope this information may help someone

[@seaneduardodiaz9894]

stupid question but which Size T is that damn screw? i got a m65 rgb black but...... even a 1,5 thickness doesnt fit! im so frustrated!!

[@normandeineko7584]

Will let you know soon

[@pup9et]

Hey man, can you tell me what kind of screws they are? They looked hex head but non of my metric or sae will fit it.

[@YizusCrist]

Torx t6

[@YizusCrist]

I used a torx t6H and worked fine

[@person_wannabe]

My mouse wheel broke on my rgb , the plastic end that inserts into the mouse wheel rotation input snapped in there and I tried melting it back on to the wheel but it wouldn’t, I ended up sanding off all the plastic off the rotate input side, using a soldering iron I made and insert into the middle of the wheel and stuck a tooth pick into the rotation input and made sure It was able to rote and trimmed according to size, and just added a drop of glue into the hole I made and called it a day. It’s working and at least I don’t have to buy a new mouse yet...

[@normandeineko7584]

That's awesome Alek . Great to hear you fix it .

[@normandeineko7584]

If you have the warranty use it, mine i bought it on hong kong .... so quite a long process to claim it. The problem started 6 months after i use it. Really hope you get yours fixed fast .let us know how long it took.

[@namsukeichinose]

How do I fix it's double click problems

[@HanDrolo]

Order new OMERON switches

[@Commandos12]

i have this problem too. a few questions -what is a "dry joint"? -i've googled this problem online, and apparently that switch is tactile and not microswitch, and thats why it doesn't last very long. is it possible to buy a similar microswitch on ebay and solder it onto its place and still have the mouse working? plz reply thx :D

[@normandeineko7584]

Hi Commnados12, A dry joint is when the Solder (which look silver under the board and fix to the component to the board) as lifted off the board and therefore not making contact , causing the problem. Those switches you can buy them 100%, just go to your local Electronic shop . i have jaycar , Rs component.....etc. If your having difficulties finding it , try to spray lightly some contact cleaner first and click the switch about 40 times or so, to get the dirt off the contact inside the switch. Good luck !!!

[@martinvlcek7133]

Hello, please can you tell me the type of omron clicker for left button? Is is D2CF-F-7N? Have to repair it, but first i wanna buy a good type and than open the mouse :) thanks a lot!

[@normandeineko7584]

Hi Martin, sorry for the late reply. Yes it is the one D2CF-F-7N . it will fit perfectly . i have ordered 3 spare for myself , just in case.

[@YouSoundButtHurt]

D2FC-F-7N(20M) on my mouse

[@DW_Death]

@@normandeineko7584 Hi, is the RMB switch the same as on the left side of the mouse? Mine is having some serious trouble registering when pressed down (really annoying for FPS games). It does register when clicking though, it sometimes misses a click.

[@normandeineko7584]

@@DW_Death . Yes it is .

[@moss8448]

Good video...my M65 is the older non RGB and it is slightly different as there is no prying the sides grrrr...had an MGB car once most of the time all ya had to do was take whatever it was apart clean it good and it'd go back to working.....be surprised what cleaning will do for things these days...'specially those itty bitty tee-nigh-nee electronic deals

[@moss8448]

never could get after taking those two screws out to 'pop' up enough to prise it enough to get a complete separation....it really felt like (even after all that 'judicious manipulation') that it wanted to release. felt as though it was going to break something...not as easy as it looks. it would be nice if you'd sit the camera down and start from scratch so I (we) can see exactly how you take that darn top deal off.

[@moss8448]

another quick fix I've seen is to add some thin tape to that contact point because over time it takes more room to depress it properly....think shim.

[@TheHolydruid]

TLDR, you cant fix it without ordering part you might as well just get a new mouse that isnt corsair

[@chucklodders1027]

Got same problem, but i can fix this with the warranty.

[@Zarc.o]

hey man . can u make a full video how to dissemble and assemble this m65 ? coz now im stuck where i cnt open the back part . and i cant put it back . lol btw i had problem with left click .

[@tranquil31]

be VERY GENTLE disassmebling and dont get angry, it is easy to break the fukin mouse clicks

[@tanvirulislam4152]

can you tell me the model of your switch ? omron what ?

[@cammycakesss]

OMRON B3F-6020

[@megachorme123]

Do you guys know how to fix the sniper button? It feels like wobbly and makes noises everytime i move the sniper button a little bit

[@normandeineko7584]

hi Alex, if the sniper buttom moves. your are going to have to open it and inspect any broken part or loose.

[@SuperSamanoske]

Hi! What type M65 mouse encode? which one? Scrolling too fast and up for down. Thanx.

[@normandeineko7584]

Hi Samaoske , for your mouse you will need the corsair software and possibly adjust your scolling rate speed in the windows mouse menu in control panel. and wonload the software: Corsair Gaming M65 RGB, M65 RGB Pro, Sabre RGB (Optical/Laser), Scimitar RGB, Scimitar Pro RGB, Harpoon RGB, and KATAR From:www.corsair.com/en-au/support/downloads

[@SuperSamanoske]

Hi! It is found unfortunately but no the trouble,this encoder issue. 3,5 old year i use. Firmware update and i think so working. Before processor replace,but not working.

[@ihaveabutterybrain]

@@normandeineko7584 Hi bro, the tact switch it self for the middle mouse button is a B3F-6020 right? My middle mouse button all of a sudden stopped working completely, Thank you

[@normandeineko7584]

@@ihaveabutterybrain yes that is the one . Let me know how you go .

[@ihaveabutterybrain]

@@normandeineko7584 Yeah will do i'm hoping its just cracked solder joint, I also found out the dimensions of the tact switch might be useful to someone will leave it here. 6mm 6mm 5mm. Thanks for the help bro

[@MisterButterfingers]

Fuck the m65. I'm never switching from Logitech again.

[@TheRogueX]

lol I have yet to find a video that shows the same internals as my m65

[@normandeineko7584]

When did you purchase your m65, and what is the problem ? This video is for a m65 that I purchase in Hong Kong .

[@storrho]

You probably have the m65 rgb elite?

[@pastaguy1232]

tfw i found out there was no follow up video

[@normandeineko7584]

Hey Pasta Guy, for my Corsair mouse that fixed my problem what I have done . If the problem is still there after giving it a clean , you will need to replaced the switch .

[@uchihasilver8362]

literally spray it with 99% alchohol and wait for it to dry easy as that also watch those ribbon clips they are extremely weak one of mine broke on one side using no force at all -_- not really what i expect from an expensive mouse
