  1. PS3 Wireless Controller Teardown, Unscrewing it: passo 1, imagem 1 %32
    • Flip the controller upside down.

    • Unscrew the 5 screws (marked out in orange in the picture).

    Sorry! Meant to be 5 screws.

    Imad Knight -

    What size are the screws? I’m trying to get a replacement set and it does me no good to not have a definite answer

    How to unscrew a screw without a screwdriver ?

    Redwan Noor - Responder

    The case doesn't open by itself, though. To open it, one has to push a flap inside the housing which is located at the front between the two analog sticks. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-jdXGtda... shows how it's done.

  2. PS3 Wireless Controller Teardown, Unhooking the battery: passo 2, imagem 1 %32 PS3 Wireless Controller Teardown, Unhooking the battery: passo 2, imagem 2 %32 PS3 Wireless Controller Teardown, Unhooking the battery: passo 2, imagem 3 %32
    • Once the cover is off, the controller should look like this. Follow the red and black wire(s) from the battery to the connector.

    • Take a pair of small pliers and unhook the battery (refer to picture 2 of this step to see it unhooked).

    • The battery will simply lift out revealing the motherboard (refer to picture 3 ots).

    • From here, the plastic holding the battery will be able to lifted out.

  3. PS3 Wireless Controller Teardown, Removing the L1,L2 and R1,R2 buttons.: passo 3, imagem 1 %32 PS3 Wireless Controller Teardown, Removing the L1,L2 and R1,R2 buttons.: passo 3, imagem 2 %32
    • This will be the step where you teardown the controller not take it apart.

    • To remove the 4 buttons (2 on each side), first lift out the R1 (or L1) button. This may require you to wiggle the button.

    • From here, you will have to apply force to tear out the R2 (or L2) button and the plastic it is connected to. In the 2 pictures (ots) you can see one side taken apart and the other as it normally is.

  4. PS3 Wireless Controller Teardown, Removing the vibration motors.: passo 4, imagem 1 %32 PS3 Wireless Controller Teardown, Removing the vibration motors.: passo 4, imagem 2 %32
    • For this step, you will need to de-solder the wires that connect the motors to motherboard. Or, if you are like me and don't have a solder, you can attempt to rip the wires of.

    • First of, lift the whole motor out of the plastic mount. This may take some force as it is glued in.

    • After that, simply cut the cable off of the motherboard, or de-solder it. In the first picture you can see what your controller will look like with one motor missing.

    • Repeat the same on the other side.

    De-soldering is recommended though, since ripping the wires away with brute force could tear off the pads connecting the wires to the motherboard's circuitry.

    Yeah, I agree with you completely. But since this was a teardown and I had no intention of putting it back together (and I don't have a solder), I just ripped it off.

  5. PS3 Wireless Controller Teardown, Removing the motherboard: passo 5, imagem 1 %32 PS3 Wireless Controller Teardown, Removing the motherboard: passo 5, imagem 2 %32 PS3 Wireless Controller Teardown, Removing the motherboard: passo 5, imagem 3 %32
    • First off, unscrwew the single screw that holds the motherboard onto the plastic (marked out in orange in the first and second picture ots).

    • With that screw removed, the whole motherboard (along with the 2 joysticks) can be simply lifted right out.

    • Pictures 2 and 3 show the case without the motherboard and joysticks.

  6. PS3 Wireless Controller Teardown, Removing the white plastic.: passo 6, imagem 1 %32 PS3 Wireless Controller Teardown, Removing the white plastic.: passo 6, imagem 2 %32 PS3 Wireless Controller Teardown, Removing the white plastic.: passo 6, imagem 3 %32
    • To remove the white plastic, simply lift it out of the controller. There are no screws,clips or glue holding it in.

    • Pictures 2 and 3 show the plastic by itself.

  7. PS3 Wireless Controller Teardown, Removing the remaining buttons: passo 7, imagem 1 %32 PS3 Wireless Controller Teardown, Removing the remaining buttons: passo 7, imagem 2 %32 PS3 Wireless Controller Teardown, Removing the remaining buttons: passo 7, imagem 3 %32
    • First of, remove the 2 white pieces or rubber on the sides and the middle, grey piece too. The first picture shows you what this will look like.

    • Then simply "pop" the buttons out (marked out in orange in picture 2) from the other side (the front). You can also remove the "Play Station" logo button.

    • For the other side, remove the top plastic and then the 4 buttons (made of one piece of plastic).

  8. PS3 Wireless Controller Teardown, Remove the final plastic piece: passo 8, imagem 1 %32 PS3 Wireless Controller Teardown, Remove the final plastic piece: passo 8, imagem 2 %32 PS3 Wireless Controller Teardown, Remove the final plastic piece: passo 8, imagem 3 %32
    • The final piece to remove is the plastic battery level light cover.

    • This is done by simply pressing in the 4 (slightly protruding) pieces of plastic.

    • The 3 pictures show the the case completely stripped out.

    • And thats that. If you have been following the guide, you now have a completely stripped down PS3 controller. If you have read this for entertainment, you now know what it takes to strip down a PS3 controller. Thank you for reading.

Good job man really a great tutorial.!

Ricky J - Responder

Rip. To the controller that he used.

Tintin1870 - Responder

If I have to sacrifice one controller in order to show people how to (potentially) fix theirs, then I'm fully fine with that.

Imad Knight -

You can remove the entire motherboard assembly without disconnecting the rumble motors. Just lift them out at the same time carefully

Ephraim Miller - Responder

Some wording needs to be edited,

(TEAR IT DOWN not disassemble. )

Is in fact the same thing.

Cut wire from board ,

vs rip it off , would work,, lol.

The rubber touch switch pads,,

carbon pile buttons,, just might

be the reason my L2/ R2 Quit today,

or dust got under flex circuit strip

that bump contacts the circuit board

seen in recent video, scrubbed clean

to make it functional.

Not looking forward to the torture,

but not able to shift gears on

Granturismo , or fire motars from

pirate ship of Assassins Creed Rogue,

is cramping my style a bit.

Cheers..

Philscbx - Responder

i lost the rubber that secure the flex of star select and ps bottom do mainboard can anyone can give the size of the rubber so i can cut a new one is 0.5 cm x 2 cm but i dont know the thickness.

or a place i can buy one

MikasPT - Responder

You didn’t show anything about the analog sticks.

Abhishek Reddy - Responder

You broke the controller… I feel sick

Aiodensghost - Responder

Great for you buddy. Has it perhaps occured to you that the board itself could be ?

Imad Knight -

Its so satisfying to me because you scroll up and down slowly you can just see how it come in and out perfectly. Just for entertaining, had do fix my controller and now its doing alright, thx for tips. LOL

tearing it off all apart and connecting a lag switch to it to make others rage in game

Hamza - Responder

Imad Knight > really appreciate you doing this tutorial, even if you had to sacrifice a controller in the process like you stated above that you are fine with that if it helps others to fix theirs just shows what kind of good person you are. Thanks again dude, this was a big help for me.

Gene - Responder

it is better to disassemble the motherboard and then take the L2, L1 and R2, R1, beacause otherwise you need to take the buttons “by force“ . But anyways thanks for making the teardown .

Vasco Mateus - Responder

Just a heads up, if you take off the analog sticks, you can pop open those green plastic “doors” and replace the analog sensor (small plastic disc) inside to fix analog stick issues. Saves you from having to go through the effort of soldering on a new one and from my experience, lots of controllers use those same sensors. Even PS1 and PS2 controllers I believe.

the00brotherhood - Responder

Anyone want to fix my PS3 controller?

Devin Culley - Responder

Just a heads up. The membrane for L1/2 and R1/2 can get misaligned or pulled out and not be put back in the correct orientation and the triggers will suddenly feel very different and constantly trigger.
