I'm trying to put in the new battery, but the connector won't snap in even with larger amounts of force. The original battery, on the other hand, snaps right in.
I have the same issue. The connector on the new battery does not snap in. Does anyone know how to fix this issue and ger the connector to snap into place?

tried to unscrew the 10 Tri-Wing size Y1 screw with my iFixIt toolkit
unfortunately the tool is too “fat” and short, it cannot reach 4 screws on the corners of the gamepad.
having the iFixIt toolkit and needing to purchase an additional slim screwdriver it’s a shame…
