    dude, I kinda broke one of the shoulder housings because I couldn't get the stick out and I pushed a bit too hard while you said pushing it gently is enough, not for me I guess lol.. it didn't fall off but it's way looser now, I hope I can support it with a foam material inside or something and that it doesn't fall off completely..
    sorry that this english is probably too hard to understand

    • @RomanMlejnek
      @RomanMlejnek 3 роки тому +1

      also you pushed the controller down while taking the second stick off, might have thought it was safe.. well, what can I do now?

    My controller has broken trigger legs, just put it back together and it's working fine. My guess is that so long as the ribbons are fine, you'll be able to slide the triggers into the alloted slots on the casing and it'll go together and work. Not guaranteed, of course, but if you break the little plastic legs then try putting your controller back together anyway before buying a new one.

    Hopefully people see this comment but the second I opened it all 4 legs broke off when the pieces dry I’m going to put it together and see if it still works if not would gluing them back work?

    I'm too scared to open my dualshock 2. I've had like 5 of them and tried opening the last 3~ and all of them stopped working after re-assembly before. It annoys me because these aren't being made anymore so they're hard to find as well.

    mine seems a bit different... thumb controls not keyed, d-pad clip also has 4 legs and seems to not matter for direction. Rubber pads as well, on mine the black dots faced the circuit not away from it.
