In case anyone wondering, you don’t need to do the soldering part. You can just remove the other plate and turn the board around. The cables are long enough.
I got a problem that the shape buttons is hard to press, but it's working. But you have to put some pressure to it to work. I clean my ds3 with alcohol, and i think that the reason why my ds3 shape buttons, r1, and r2 is not working properly. Please help, i don't wanna buy another controller.
in my case the upper arrow just stopped working, I opened it cleaned it and all and is still not working :( ... though I'm proud I was able to put everything back in place and all of the other buttons still work lol
After a long long time not playing with my Ps3 it came to the results of the controllers not working properly so I went to GameStop and bought a used controller and it's the same color as the one that you are fixing
My problem is different. I have two PS3 controllers. One of them is a duelshock 3, the other is a simple Sixaxis controller. The former is pressing buttons at random at very specific moments in a game say Tomb Raider 2 for example. But the latter works in the menus, but it is absolutely useless in game. It doesn't work on not just Tomb Raider 2, but every game I tried. Same with the other controller. I know it's weird. But it's weird how one controller has random seizures in a game, and the other won't work in the game but working fine in the menus. Will this strategy work for this particular situation? Thanks.
do you have to have something plugged into the outputs for the vibration? i removed my motors of an old controller and my r2 and l2 doesnt work. It could be unreleated since i dont know if the buttons worked before i took it apart. just wondering :)
Same question. From the screen, I couldn't see anything that would warrant soldering, and there was no explanation or instructions on why a soldering gun was used.
@@cosmo5179 Unnatural? I think you’re talking about Xbox then, lmao. One thumb at the top, and other at the bottom, oh man. PS controllers have the most natural and comfortable controllers when it comes to natural placement.
@@cosmo5179 Not even, lmfao. Is that why PS is more popular than Xbox? Even among people with bigger hands like myself? Besides, there’s a such thing as custom controllers aswell. But even not regarding custom controllers, the PS5 controller is more larger than the PS4 controller and even more comfortable for players aswell. And everyone uses their thumb when gaming? So like, you make no sense lmfao?
Hello! I was wondering if you could make a PS3 Dualshock Controller fixing (or cleaning), because mine doesn't work (the left "lever" doesn't work, and the right one moves really slow) if you could make a video I would be really thankful. PD: it uses to work if it's connected to the console by a USB cable, but nothing else, and it's a shame, because in quarantine it's kinda annoying Thank you
I dont know why my new ps3 controller good as my old and with full of scratches controller but the old one is easy to use and the new ihave defect on its buttons that some cannot be press but why?
@@budmaster5575 yeah but it will need more time to evaporate, also i dont know if vodka has sugar in it, but if it does it will leave the controller sticky
Ps4 Taco PS4 controller works. Connect the PS4 controller charger to the controller and PS3. And then go to Bluetooth devices and add a device. Then hold the home and share button on ur PS4 controller until the light starts flashing quickly. Then click the PS4 controller on the listed devices.
not workin' bro, it fixed only 1 button fully, and it fixed my X a bit because i had to hit it twice for it to work, but still my O and triangle arent working

I buy broken PS3 controllers and fix them all the time...I use them for my PS2 too. Always good to have backups.
How do I fix my start button
@@laidback_ant443I think you need to clean your controller from inside
@@RedRoit ok thanks I will try
What did you do apart from cleaning inside to get the buttons to work ?
Soldering gun is NOT in your list of tools bro
I have forgotten him, I will add them in the description.
Thank you 😊
@PAYOUT SCOUT hahaha who's him?

In my ps3 controller the analog on the left side does not work at all and the L3 button too
Plz tell me what to do bro
I'm afraid to solder anything
no, is very easy
I tried using my ps3 controller and my x button also isn’t working. I took it apart and cleaned but I got nothing out of it. How do I fix it?
Buy a New flex bro
I don't have propyl alcohol and I don't know from where can I buy... Any alternative bro?
O meu eu limpei e troquei a película condutiva mais não deu jeito o botão R1 ainda não funciona o que pode ser???
do you have to have something plugged into the outputs for the vibration? i removed my motors of an old controller and my r2 and l2 doesnt work. It could be unreleated since i dont know if the buttons worked before i took it apart. just wondering :)
No the mottors don't have any effects on the buttons
Was the soldering vital? It seemed like it was meant to make cleaning easier.
Same question. From the screen, I couldn't see anything that would warrant soldering, and there was no explanation or instructions on why a soldering gun was used.
I bought a brand new PS3 controller, but the R1 button acts inconsistent when pressed, tapped or held. What do you suppose the problem is?
I think it should only be cleaned from the inside.
Me too😭😭😭
cool! thanks for your video, i fixed my controller. :-)
What is the exact model serial no(ribbon?). For the controller?
Did not understand
Ribbon model or serial no. To be exact’
@@hernanidelacruzhd For any bar you speak ?!!
Ps2 is the best and less defection.
YES
Gamecube controlller rules them all. The sticks on ps controllers are retarted lol, unnatural position of the thumbs

Just lay down your hand. What does tour thumb do? Haha it doesnt bend down but up
