Yes, the truth is that the last 2 videos that I uploaded without the music have done quite well so it is most likely that I will continue doing it this way

Awesome video man! You are one of the best motivators for me to fix those. I'm subscribing!

That was pretty good job, amazing result

It would be nice if we knew what grease was used for the analog sticks. Otherwise, it's a pretty good tutorial.

Same here opened mine and nothing will do anything to fix it.

Those front buttons are a puzzle to re-assemble. Thanks for showing how to do that part.

I love every moment of this video

I've never taken apart a controller before but I didn't want to buy another one. The left thumbstick was acting haywire and causing the right stick to move when it wasn't supposed to. The buttons weren't responsive as they should be. This totally helped me now it's working perfectly.

Very cool project 👍👍👍🤘 Great job

Are the contact points on the flex cable repairable? I think I rubbed the contact points too much and now my L2 doesn't work. Great video!

I still have my OG PS3 controller that is 8 or 9 years old by now, it still works but the analogues are really mushy so I will try to replace

Well done,great job!!!some questions please....what grease did you use? When you say be careful the alcohol might corrode the contacts ,how do you avoid that as you still use it,what is the trick here?also ,did you also use alcohol with the toothbrush on the whole surface of the circuit as well or was that some other chemical?

Hey where did you get that replacement thump stick? all the ones i try to buy are loose on my PS3 controller.

nice video my friend i had to do the same with one controler i had i took it apart and all cleaned it changed a broken joystick , but i wasnt able to fix a problem with the arrows. Basically when i use the arrows i get some extra click on the upper arrow , like it stuck . do i fix it by cleaning the flexboard or some other way??

That controller was awful. Insane restoration.

Amazing soldering skills! (joke)

So for the vibrating motor soldering, did you just melt the already existed and stick the cable wiring in to joint it with the motherboard with no extra solder or flux? Thanks

4:02 Which material are you using here

Great vid. What percentage alcohol did you use? Is there a safe minimum?

Perhaps i wouldve been more delicate than scrubbing the motherboard with a toothbrush but it seems to have proved effective anyway Ill still be sticking to my qtips though

Original Controller

Did you simply push on the wire to remove said wire? My circuit board looks slightly different

could you swap the buttons and thumbsticks from the original gray DualShock 1 and put them into a white DualShock 3 and make it look throwback?

My uncle also have that

Ficou bonitão

i can’t even take mine apart because the screwed are stripped

My dualshock 3 has 1 problem L3 gets stuck in one place its not going back to the middle for no reason 🤨

Hi? Can you help me, I have a problem with my ps3 controller. When in game if I double click X or x + R2 the game opens pause menu.

What did you use to lubricate the sticks???

Acabo de llegar XD

I am at my wits end with controller issues. One of my controllers just turns off by itself, especially if i am playing an action game where i press a lot of buttons and quickly. It starts being unresponsive, then it just goes completely unresponsive then it finally turns off. The console does not eve detect that no controller is connected for several seconds even though all the lights in the controller are off. Happens while connected via USB or wireless, if wireless it just starts charging when turned off and usually it's detected as off earlier. It's driving me nuts. Some times i can play for hours with no issues, some times it keeps turning itself off constantly. I doubt it is the battery since i changed it, so it has to be the ribbons or something in the board no? (it's the later, cheaper model of controller). If i could get a broken controller for cheap with the board and ribbon in working condition i could probably fix it. I have opened the controller so many times the screws are on the verge of being stripped and don't want to deal with that for nothing. I can't find ANY information on these issues.

Fantastic job🔥 I have a question: my controller has a stripped screw and it won't come out. Do you have an idea of how to get it out? If not, can I risk and force the case to open up with 5/6 screws removed?

@VRestoration

2 жыл бұрын

Well, with larger screws they can be removed with a drill, but the problem is that it is too small to do that. If you really need to open the knob, I advise you to try to remove the entire head of the screw with a file or something like that so that it comes out without damaging the housing, but the truth is that it is very difficult to do.

I know this was ages ago, but just in case you are perpetually holding onto your broken electronics ( like me :P) they actually make drill bits specifically for this issue. GraBit is one brand name, but they have cheap sets on amazon that wont set you back more than $10. Ive used them for small screws on my laptop.

It is a soldering station, it has a pencil soldering iron and a heat gun, you can buy a pencil soldering iron in homedepot or some store like that, they are very cheap you can find some from 5/10 dollars but I recommend that you buy the best complete station Since they are not very expensive in reality and they are much more durable in addition to that you can regulate the temperature better.

I'm a layman, but I have a question. Is it really proper to drip Isopropyl all over the circuit boards? Is Isopropyl completely harmless to the electronic components? Also is that 90% or 70%? Honest questions

@aaaawubadugh8054

I think generally it’s advised to use 70-99% iso whenever working with small electronics such as this. Preferably 99% as it dries up a lot faster.

in the part where the flex and the motherboard make contact there is a small pad that presses one thing against the other. Sometimes it wears out over time, you can try to make that pad press by making it thicker either with tape or foam.
