  • Do you want to know how to change or replace the thumbstick on your PS5 controller? This will allow you to fix the peeling or broken thumbstick. Take apart your ps5 controller and take off the old thumbstick and then place the new thumbsticks on. You can buy new ones off of Amazon or Ebay. You can get thumbsticks of different heights and sizes. I'd suggest getting kontrol freeks and placing them over your thumbsticks to prevent further damage.

    "Take the entire controller apart, and boom, now you can easily replace your thumbsticks" lol thanks for the vid. Wish they'd make these a little more consumer friendly.

    Beyond amazing demonstrating and explanation. I am not one to take apart things but this was so easy to follow and complete. Not many tools to use either. A pair of tweezers will definitely help with the ribbons and just something to pull out the triggers. Pulled the casing apart with just my hands. 10/10 for this guy right here ‼️

    Great video. Came back to it when my controller didn't charge probably. It would go blue for a second when plugged in but turn off immediately, so i assumed something was wrong with the battery. Lo and behold, the battery plug wasn't fully connected. Now it works like a charm again

    My question is where do I find the exact same thumbstick replacements, for the life of me I could not find any that are the same that come with the PS 5 controller, ALL of the ones I found are different and larger which I cannot stand the feel of. Can you recommend where you got those thumbstick replacements because those look like the ones that come with the PS5 controller! Great Video!

    Good instructions, got the sticks changed out. My right stick feels a little stiff when pointing down and to the right, when the sticks are just on the board it feels fine. Is the thumbstick not in correctly? My sticks were also changed out at a repair shop because of stick drift and they put in a different brand, but my left stick was also resoldered and it feels smooth.

    Small white connectors came away from contact strips and wouldn't reconnect, hence controller no longer works. Not sure if it's a newer design but impossible to reconnect them because they are loose.

    Be very careful with the two small cables on the bottom side.
    One of my sides actually took the white connector out, instead of just the ribbon. These pins are so tiny fragile you cannot reconnect it afterwards, they just break.
    Besides this, the stick exchange worked, thanks!

    Lmao I did very well I’d say for my first DualSense repair. I mean I’ve already experienced repairing controllers as I’ve torn apart a lot of DUALSHOCK 4s in the past. My right stick for my dualsense came out as it had stick drift which was pissing me off, I took it apart put it back together and now somehow the stick drift has disappeared lmao my controller is 11 months old aswell
    My right stick feels more sensitive now and has barely any drift on it anymore, there was probably some dirt or dust in there that got away which I didn’t see or notice but the back of my controller inside was a bit dirty which I have obviously cleaned whilst taking it apart and putting it back together
