Thank you for the guide - it helped me fix a beaten up DS4 controller I found on the flea market. However, it would be nice to explain a bit more in detail how to crack the case pieces open. Some detailed pictures with the different inside clips and hinges would be nice. Also, there is no explanation as to how to assemble the L2/R2 triggers back together. Last, but not least, there is no explanation as to how to remove the battery tray, in order to connect the touchpad to the motherboard.
Hello! I bought a white ds lite from a flea market and it came with the lower screen damaged and the buttons were not working correctly. I bought a couple of broken ds lites and used your guide, to clean the motherboard, change the membranes and the lower screen. Thank you very much! I was able to completely restore the device functionality. As an added bonus, I was able to clean some of the dirt that gathered under the transparent sides.
