Mon, 19 Jan 2026 10:19:31 -0700

Giocando il trigger sinistro (L2, cioè mirare) lo premo a volte funziona, altre volte è come se non rilevasse la pressione. Qualcuno sa rispondermi. Grazie

DualShock 4: Riparazione scheda jdm-055 analogico sinistro

Wed, 01 Feb 2023 18:15:26 -0700

Salve a tutti, ho acquistato una ps4 usata e il venditore mi ha 'regalato' un controller che lui ha tentato di riparare.

Ho visto che la scheda è messa molto male, ha molti graffi con alcuni resistori mancanti e parti strappate, secondo voi sarebbe possibile eseguire qualche riparazione o è da buttare?

DualShock 4: DualShock 4 funziona solo via cavo dopo riparazione

Mon, 09 Aug 2021 02:31:36 -0700

Ciao a tutti.

Dopo aver sostituito un analogico il mio controller funziona soltanto se collegato via cavo, appena viene staccato si spegne.

La batteria funziona ma se collegata al controller, ai capi del connettore sono presenti solo 0.36V circa.

Inoltre il chip S2PG001A si scalda parecchio.

Quale potrebbe essere il problema?

DualShock 4: Tasto L3 (click) non funzionante.

Mon, 29 Jun 2020 14:30:41 -0700

Buonasera a tutti.

Da una settimana ormai il mio controller ha un problema al tasto L3 (quando lo si preme, per intenderci), non funzionando completamente. Tuttavia, per quanto riguarda il movimento, che sia in orizzontale o verticale, il controller risponde tranquillamente ai comandi. Sapreste indicarmi la soluzione a questo problema??

GRAZIE ANTICIPATAMENTE

DualShock 4: Stick drift and trigger issue

Thu, 30 Apr 2026 04:47:20 -0700

help my joystick aint stick drifting its more like Tokyo drifting, I have attached media of one.

my main controller had trigger issues which was giving a response when I wasn't even using the triggers so I used the same conductive film but switched the hardware of my other controller's pcb board which wasnt turning on and then the trigger issue was resolved but the that Tokyo drift issue came up so I guess the board is the issue but I'm not sure

DualShock 4: Controllers Turns Off Right After Connecting + Nuances

Mon, 20 Apr 2026 21:17:12 -0700

I have checked this forum far and wide but haven't found my answer nor does it describes my issues. My issue im getting is that after paring/connecting to my PC or iPhone via bluetooth with pulsing yellow light, it simultaneously shuts off like it lost power. Heck, my Linux PC thinks the battery is less than 5% remaining.

I have swapped out the battery with a new one and still getting the same problem. I have confirmed the battery are charged as both the old and new battery reads 4V on my voltmeter. When I hook it up to an wall charger however, it connects then stayed powered on.

I have also done the trivial troubleshooting such as holding the PS button and Select/Share button to re-pair (Bluetooth), also press & holding the Reset button for 10 seconds to wipe out the paired address but to no avail. I do not have a PS4 console if its somehow needed to access certain settings or tools

If the community are stumped then im fine with using this controller soley wired as that works correctly.

Edit: I should mention that I never seen the LED bar changed to other colors other than Yellow & Off.

Edit 2025-11-19: Okay, I've seen the LED changed to green when plugged into my PC and playing a game, specifically Ace Combat 7.
