Dualshock 4 Repair

Mein Problem

Charging Issues - No Power means No Killing Demons, Aliens...Demon Aliens, Combo kills, No Fun in General.

My friend technically didn't ask me to fix his controller, I just took it and hoped for the best.

Meine Reparatur

The repair went pretty well. Considering I don't have actual plastic tools to easily pry open a controller and had to use a guitar pick.

Mein Rat

-Double Check what type of USB Board generation it uses. I got lucky and it was the same one I was working on. Learned that from a YouTube video and had a mini heart attack.

-Open the controller the proper way. Repairing the Port was easy. Accidentally losing the trigger springs was also easy. Putting them back on was horrible and I learned my lesson.

-Double check ribbon cable. One of the few negatives I had was the ribbon cable that shipped was bent the wrong way. and with me doing this for the first time, I thought that's how it was suppose to go. I swapped cables for the board and it worked.
