Modded controller and now it doesn't work!
« on: October 31, 2009, 08:54:54 PM »
So after hours of soldering and modding, I got my central LED working. Now what happens is that the controller doesn't work. If it is unplugged and off, I press the PS button, nothing happens, doesn't turn on. If it is plugged in the LEDs and such turn on, but still non of the buttons do anything.

 :help: :censored: :angry:

make sure one of your wires isnt pressing down the reset button on the back of the controller, that will cause it to do absolutely nothing

its a little tact switch on the motherboard (upper right corner). theres a very small hole on the back of the controller, and it resets the controller when that button is pressed

Nothing is near the upper right. :/

Any other suggestions? Could it be the touch pad?

Thanks a lot. Figured out my error though... When cutting the rubber piece so the LED shines through, I cut it to big, so now I have to press WAAAAAAY down so the PS button responds.

And idea where I can get a replacement?

That's not what my piece look(s)(ed) like. I have Dualshock 3.

Thanks for pointing my in the right direction though.
