    One of the shoulder buttons fell out when I was doing this step, along with the piece holding it in place. They go back in just fine when reassembling but make sure that they are oriented properly, of course.

    Any idea what type of pcb header is on the board for the battery? I have a motherboard with a broken header but I cant source a replacement

    This is where I screwed up so I recommend extra caution for other newbies. Only the black part is supposed to come off. Don't be an idiot like me and pry off too much...

    Yea I messed up there too. Is there a way to fix it?

    Alethia Henry - Replica

    This component was far more stubborn than the screen connector when it came to removal. I opted for a smaller tool than the spudger (small flat-head) and managed to disconnect it after determining the best bit size for the job. Screwdriver is metal, obviously, so being gentle helps to avoid damaging anything.

    Step 9-11 only apply to the 3G version of the PS Vita.

    Hello, I have the PCH-2001 model of the PS vita and the right analog stick went out. I ordered a replacement and the stick is slightly larger than the original. The original has a black rectangle on the back, the new version has the star version, which is what you have on this website as the replacement part. Any help here would be much appreciated. Thanks.

    Got the same, used PH #0 and grabbed wireless card casing with fingers from the top to release pressure on screen and avoid (possibly) breaking it.

    Some PS vita models seem to use a T2 screw instead of a PH#00. I’ve encountered this twice now.

Is anyone else experiencing the button getting stuck?

Arbo TM - Replica

Yes, mine is getting stuck, too. I am hoping a replacement will solve this problem.

Has anyone experienced or seen an issue where the trigger button acts with the same functionality as the home button. Every time I press the right trigger it exits to home or exits the game.....help please

Daniel - Replica

I followed this guide on my 3G vita in order to replace the right trigger cable. I found it wasn't necessary to remove the wireless card if anyone else finds that part tricky.

Caleb - Replica
