I don't have any insight into fixing the controller, but that music while you were soldering the sticks was great. Looking forward to a followup where you're able to fix it.
Thank you!! I wish I could take credit for the music. That’s one of my favorite royalty free tracks!! Hopefully there will be a followup video where I fix this controller!! 🐺🐺🐺😁😁😁
Hey Nick, I recommend trying a different gamepad tester. I recall having the same issue when using the one that you used in this video. The controller might be fine.
I tried a bunch of gamepad testers online and they are all showing the same thing. I haven’t tried the phone. I will have to look into that one!! Thanks!! 🐺🐺😁😁
i'm guessing that mountain dew you cleaned got to the button ribbon. i would give that a good cleaning. Also when putting in new toggles, let the board cool down before installing the new ones. I've done mine like you did while it was hot and come to find out that the board melts the plastic bottoms of those toggles and screws up the drift again.
I will have to take it apart again and check for liquid damage!! I didn’t think of that when I saw all that Mountain Dew!! Hopefully I didn’t melt the new ones!! Thank you for the video as well!! 🐺🐺🐺😁😁😁
I would try resetting the controller by poking a pin in the hole on the back of the controller, next to the Sony logo. Hold for 5 seconds to reset the controller. Failing that, look into updating the firmware with Sony's updater tool for Windows. Great video, btw!
Hope you can get it working, damn things are expensive and recently went up in price. There's also Bluetooth adapters (with no noticeable lag) that lets you use them on PS1/PS2 if you want to get one for yourself

you could try to update it may fix it if not check for liquid damage😉
I tried updating it and it’s up to date. I will have to take it apart again and check for liquid damage. Thanks!! 🐺🐺😁😁

Yeah I agree 100%. Also you can connected with Bluetooth with your phone and test it .

Thank you!! I tried both of those things. The controller is up to date and I reset it a bunch of times. Still no dice… 🐺🐺😁😁
Oh deuce. I thought for sure that was it. Gotta find that analog circuitry and poke at it a bit. Best of luck!
I think you need to calibrate the sticks when you change them. At least I had to.
I will have to look into how to do that!! Thank you!! 🐺🐺😁😁
@wolfmanrepairs No problem ;)

I hope I get it working too!! I will have to look into a Bluetooth adapter!! That would be pretty neat!! 🐺🐺😁😁
What ever liquid you cleaned out of there got to other parts of the controller, look under a micro scope for the damage.
Desoldering is a pain in the butt, I don't have a desoldering gun and looking at this video I may not need one after all.
Yeah I can never get this one to work the way I want it to work!! Low melt sold and braid is all you really need!! 🐺🐺😁😁
PS5. Dualsense. Controller Analog. Stick. Replacement. Wolfman. Needs
Yes Wolfman needs all of these things!! 🐺🐺😁😁
Google dualsense calibrate, I keep trying to post the link but my comment is not showing up
I will have to try that!! Thank you!!🐺🐺😁😁
