How to Install Xbox One Battery Cover with Charge Pass Through

Quick answer

Replace your worn or missing Xbox One battery door with the Nyko Two Battery Covers that feature precision-cut pass-through openings, so you can keep using your charging dock without buying a new setup.

Installation steps

1. Remove the old battery cover: Slide the existing battery door downward (toward the grips) until it pops free from the controller. If the cover is cracked or missing, skip this step. Check that the controller battery pack is seated correctly before installing the new cover.
2. Align the new Nyko cover: Hold the replacement cover so the pass-through cutout faces the bottom of the controller (near the headphone jack). The cutout must line up with the charging contacts on your dock. If the cover does not slide on easily, you may have the orientation reversed. Flip it 180 degrees and try again.
3. Snap the cover into place: Press the cover upward (toward the sync button) until you hear a click. The cover should sit flush with the controller body and not rattle. A loose cover means the tabs are not fully engaged. Remove and reinstall, pressing firmly along the edges.
4. Test dock charging: Place the controller on your charging dock. Verify that the dock's pins contact the battery pack through the cutout. The charging indicator should light up. If the light does not activate, check that the battery pack is pushed all the way into the controller and that the cover is not blocking the contacts.
