Hey do u think u could repair my controllers?. But both my analog stick aren't working its a Xbox one s. I would do it myself my wife doesn't trust me.
i love when people fix stuff instead of throwing them away as garbage.... and if you cant fix it, u can always take it apart for parts for future fixes....
Steve, you inspired me to start fixing broken consoles, proud to say I have bought my first broken console and repaired it! Thankyou so much for your videos
It's probably mostly kids. I know I buy cheap controllers for my son; he's good at remembering to wash hands before using it, but he's only 5 so he gets excited, runs back and forth to explain things to me and occasionally drops the controller or sits on it. That's why he gets the 15$ Amazon special while I use the pro controller.
If you think about it... Controllers have no thermal paste, meaning the perfect amount is none, so this was 25:22 worth of the perfect amount of thermal paste. 🤔
Steve could assemble one totally faulty Dual Sense with all those broken parts: right and left drift sticks, dumb touchpad, stuck shoulder and trigger buttons, bad face buttons, dead battery, screwed charge port and ugly dirty case. The masterpiece of unfair gameplay!
I actually feel a relief when Steve fixes something, a bunch of consoles or controllers, is so good to see the job done, that speaks a lot about his skill and dedication
When Steve said he will check controller #2 on the PS5, I know he would. He always keeps his word and that's one of the things I like about him. Great work Steve. :)
What an enjoyable video Steve. A good mixture of faults and fixes. I'm thinking you must have bought up the total eBay USA supply of faulty DualSense controllers. Big thumbs up 👍
Great video! I’ve revived 3 out of 4 of my dead scuf controllers (thumb stick / potentiometers replacements) thanks to you... saved me literally 100s of dollars
If they did , we know that they tried more than 4 times.... 1st time (correct) . . . nope 2nd time (incorrect) nope . . . 3rd time , ( good , if Usb Micro, Bad if type c) 4th time, It went in but isn't working let's send it back....
Also common problem with micro usb cable ports: forcing the connector in wrong side up. I don't understand how these people figure out that if it doesn't fit, maybe just brute force it. (Insert obligatory "that's what she said" joke here.)
@Tronicsfix I just discovered something interesting about the Dualsense controller touchpad, which I though might be helpful in your repairs. I have four Dualsense controllers, and I completely disassembled two of them to custom paint them black. This included removing the touchpad circuit board from the plastic touch pad. I did so carefully and set them to the side. These circuit boards looked exactly like the one in your teardown video, with the orange ribbon cable that is soldered to the board. When I reassembled them, the touchpads didn't work. They were getting power, as the LED light on the circuit board came on, but it didn't recognize swipes or clicks. So I disassembled ANOTHER dualsense to swap in a known good touchpad, and it worked just fine. I also noticed it was different. The ribbon cable was blue and white, and it wasn't soldered to the board. And the chip was smaller on it. But I know all of these are genuine Dualsense controllers straight from Sony. Thought it was just a different variation. Well, in further testing, I went back to my two "bad" touchpads. Decided to exchange them between the two controllers, and guess what? They worked! Apparently, the touchpad with the orange ribbon cable is married to the main board in that controller. It won't work in any other controller. But the touchpad with the white and blue ribbon cable seems universal. Not sure why the difference, but if you run into an issue with touchpads, it's something to keep in mind. And maybe something to test yourself!!
Seeing the one with a missing thumb stick brings back memories when I swapped the ds4 thumb stick with a pair of xbox one thumb stick replacement. It was the greatest thing I've done and I only did that because my Ds4 thumb stick actually was broken (snapped)
@@HueghMungus I don't play online or any multiplayer games tho... And I don't throw controllers too, it's hard to earn money, so why waste?? Just sayin
Steve your a legend!! how you keep track of all the little screws you unscrew and how you put it all back together perfectly with whatever you fix actually blows my mind, watching your videos are so interesting 😁
Dude is my personal sensei of the cyber world and honestly have learned how to do minor repairs and actually have made profit from what I’ve learned so thank you Steve you’ll forever be my master Miyagi and go to guide when new things appear over the horizon... thank you for you’re education or enlightenment as I would say lol
I always look forward to these videos on Friday mornings snd you never cease to amaze me. Really suprised that the reflow on that chip worked so well lol
I love this channel so much. It's just such nice wholesome and cool content to watch. No clickbait titles, unnecessarily long intros to get more ads, and just a genuinely great host.
I really seriously like your videos. I love how you show step by step. The one things is now I can fix them and my PlayStation because of your videos, I know that is the point but someone loses a little money when I fix it. Thanks.
Really great video as usual. It would be super interesting to know how much each of these cost, and the estimated cost of the repairs (rough idea per part, labour). It's crazy that you were able to find so many this early in the console's life!
What I find fascinating here is some of these controllers are using different analog modules than the others. Some are using analog modules with orange potentiometers, I believe those are from Polyshine Favor Union. The others are using the ALPS analog modules with the green potentiometers, the kind you find in Xbox controllers. I'm curious if they feel different and have different failure rates. I guess we'll find out.
Love his videos. Managed to fix my controller without dealing any additional damage. Liquid damage under the main chip (no power). I shot WD-40 contact cleaner between the ball solders and the pcb as a hail mary attempt to fix it. I don't know if this is a long term fix, but the controller powered back up afterwards with no problems. Keep these videos coming! It's probably not the last time I dunk my electronics in a spill.
Its fun that when you look inside you can already see that some parts have different colors meaning that they have different suppliers it seems like. It's fun that they have different versions just so short after launch
@@Tronicsfix np my friend just send my PS4 controller to Sony as it would not charge but work when connected and it’s led would show red instead of the charging colour they aren’t as good as you as they sent me it 2 months later and yet it’s broken again ( has not been dropped once) only 3 months old
congrats on fixing all of them. good to see you had a variety of problems and seeing how you’d go about fixing them. interested to see the common problems that arise over the coming months to years.
The controller drift thing seems to be serious. Read an article that states the average lifespan of a Dualsense is approximately 417 hrs. I have 2 right now, only time will tell.
I used to work for Microsoft and that happens all the time with Xbox controllers too. Rather suspicious when you learn the controller warranty is 90 days.
Hmm read the same article, it states that if you play intensive competitive games that requires sharp turns and what not (like in shooters) and moving the stick all over the place, the life expectancy goes down to 400 hours tops and being honest, its a serious thing. A friend of mine when we talked about it, I told him that I didn't understand how the heck he has gone through 3 DS4 controllers, he simply said: "You don't play shooters" This was before the article and I can attest to his diligence in taking care of his things.
I’ve broken 2 controllers already… normal use, i take care of them and I’m very gentle with them, still, broken, the R2 spring bends and doesn’t come out completely, both or them had to be replaced by Sony 😔
I admire your ability to fault find and fix Steve 😁 Out of curiosity, if you weren't filming this how long would it take to diagnose and repair all 8 controllers? Great job 👌😃
It's really hard to say. As you know fixing and filming at the same time is VERY time consuming. Most of these probably could have been fixed in under 30 min...but that's just an estimate.
I swear to god people don't know how to treat their things. This thing came out in November and we're seeing so many people breaking these already?! Lol
Sadly too many ppl dont give a crap. They think of it as an object that needs to be used and nothing else. If it breaks they will just buy a new one. Hence i bet most ppl with drifting issues on the ps5 and switch might be using force. I have 2 switches and they never had any drifting issues. Always cleaning my stuff.
@@shinjid3705 I can see where you're coming from but even with very light use I've had controllers run into issues. I have a blue raspberry ps4 controller I use for my pc and the sticks drift and the charge port got loose. And I barely use it, more often than not it is just sat on my desk. And I'm not even playing games that force you to use the sticks kinda rough. I think I played fallen order the most with it. So it's not just a user error thing.
@@AbbyRawks dirt and environment is also an issue. Corrosion can cause electronics to rust and break inside without u even notiticing. I have seen many guides that solved this problem after cleaning the sticks properly. But not everyone is technically advanced so that he or she can easily tear don a controller and do it without braking it .

can u fix my controller for payment my scuf vantage had a drift problem when I bought it but I ignored it and when I finally sent it back for repair they said they didn’t have the parts and at this time they stoped selling vantages at that time I have nowhere else to repair or send it to repair that I know of if u can’t do it so u know somewhere to recommend I’m willing to pay a fair amount to get the controller fix if u can do it of course
@@peenSuperLoser but like why would you throw it. Maybe you are spoilt brat or too rich and a spoilt brat. Why man just give these electronics some respect.
I'm really interested to see how you'll be able to diagnose and repair the adaptive triggers. Not the triggers themselves, but the part that creates the adaptive tension since that tester can't pick it up. I'm guessing you tested the adaptive trigger tension for #2 in something like Astro's Playroom? Either way I am interested in seeing such a repair if one ever materializes.
Awesome video. So good glad to see you have given a new life to these controllers when most of the time they would be thrown away. Great video as always 👍

@@nathanmead140 no, it says “next gen” for about a year as not everyone has it yet (so for the majority of people it’s still next gen)
man It was amazing to see every single one completely fixed! Amazing work dude!
can u fix my controller for payment my scuf vantage had a drift problem when I bought it but I ignored it and when I finally sent it back for repair they said they didn’t have the parts and at this time they stoped selling vantages at that time I have nowhere else to repair or send it to repair that I know of if u can’t do it so u know somewhere to recommend I’m willing to pay a fair amount to get the controller fix if u can do it of course
this guy is so talented, i could only hope to have such steady hands for soldering..
how the f did people break 8 controllers when most people cant even get 1 console
They be raging and smashing things or sum cuz I don’t get it either
It's easier to get a PS5 controller than getting the console itself... obviously.
I was able to get the controller before the system launched
@@peenSuperLoser but like why would you throw it. Maybe you are spoilt brat or too rich and a spoilt brat.
Why man just give these electronics some respect.
mine broke with almost no use, my ps4 controller and xbox one controller last a lot longer
Sony sold 4.5 million PS5s despite a worldwide shortage
I always watch your videos, I think they are very interesting and great to watch, keep up the great work!
Meanwhile I'm here trying to fix my controller drift.
Thanks Tyler for sending in that controller. Interesting repair to see!
I'm really interested to see how you'll be able to diagnose and repair the adaptive triggers. Not the triggers themselves, but the part that creates the adaptive tension since that tester can't pick it up.
I'm guessing you tested the adaptive trigger tension for #2 in something like Astro's Playroom? Either way I am interested in seeing such a repair if one ever materializes.
Love you vids bro. So satisfying to watch 💪🏽
I really want to know the story behind the missing analog + right bumper controller....
Awesome video. So good glad to see you have given a new life to these controllers when most of the time they would be thrown away.
Great video as always 👍
Maybe some have adaptive trigger problems and it will only be detected in-game
Thats what I was thinking of. I dont see him testing adaptive trigger, speakers and haptic feedback.
Tronic fix your brilliant!!, i am surprised to see so many PS5 controllers broken PS5 is only 4 months old, i have seen reports PS5 controllers breaking down
