When I press X It registers to Home button

Hello Sheikh,

that sounds like an unusual issue. I know of a few steps you can try to resolve this issue.

First of all, you could try to do a reset of the controller (reset procedure on PlayStation website):

1. Turn your controller around, you should see 4 screws in total
2. Next to the screw on the upper right should be a tiny hole, the reset button is located in this hole
3. Use a paper clip or a similar tool to press and hold the reset button inside the hole for at least 5 seconds
4. The controller has to be reconnected to the console using a USB-cable

If this doesn't fix it you might have to open up your controller:

The X-button and PS-button both share the same flex PCB, which handles inputs from most buttons on the Dualshock. In your case, the issue may be caused by a faulty flex PCB or a faulty connection between this flex PCB and the motherboard.

To visualize this you can take a look at this guide from iFixit. It isn't specifically about your issue so you unfortunately can't just follow these steps to resolve your issue. However, you can use this guide to disassemble your controller until you have separated the midframe from the outer shells and taken off the joystick covers. In the steps 12 to 14 of this guide you can see the flex PCB. The color of the traces (either blue or green) depends on the exact model of your Dualshock.

This flex PCB connects to the motherboard right beneath the plastic midframe. If you look at the midframe from above (analog sticks facing towards you) you can see the blue or green traces running under the plastic midframe, over the left analog stick.

To inspect the connection you have to remove the motherboard from the midframe. Please note that the rumble motors are soldered to the motherboard. You do not have to desolder these connections but you have to be careful to not tear destroy these soldered connections when following the next steps.

Turn the midframe around (analog sticks facing away from you) to locate 2 small clips that hold the motherboard in place. They are located on the right and the left side of the motherboard.

Gently push these clips open to release the motherboard and carefully lift it out of the plastic midframe. You should now be able to extra carefully turn only the motherboard around to have the analog sticks facing you.

The marked area on this image is the flex PCB connector. On the motherboard, you'll find a corresponding connection point where it attaches.

You should now be able to clean the flex PCB, its connector and the counterpart to the connector on the motherboard. Don't try to remove the flex PCB from the plastic midframe, it is still held in place at the R1, R2 and L1, L2 buttons. Also look for obvious damage to the flex PCB (like broken traces). If you see that the flex PCB has been damaged, you may want to carefully follow the steps 11 to 14 of this teardown to remove it from the midframe, order a replacement flex PCB online and install the new part back onto the midframe.

Let me know if you have questions regarding those steps. Good luck with your repair!
