  • Thanks for the unresponsive buttion tips. I've been looking for a solution for this.

  • can i also use this video to repair my playstation 1 controller?

  • @MrMichaeljackson21 : yes you can :-)

  • @benwake07

    My character in Devil May Cry 2 just keeps running without me touching the controller. It won't stop unless I hit the controller.

  • @greatamericansongboo same problem with me smk vs. raw That's a problem in Ur left analog stick...

  • @greatamericansongboo there is probably a potmeter from your analog stick is broken.

  • I dropped my ps2 and it turns on but dosent show video wat should I do?

  • U am selling my ps2 w/ the controller but the controller buttons work but for some reason when it is hooked up to the playstation I have no response

  • like household items? i understand that makes it difficult.

  • how dont have a screw driver that small.

    anything else i could use?

  • To respond to all button problems. You have the green mainboard, at the right side you have a green plastic with 4 rubbers. When you press a button, it presses the black rubber. You have to test this mechanism. If that doesn't work, you'll have to be creative -> put a piece of paper or plastic between the black contact and the button to make it easier for the button to touch the black rubber. Otherwise, I would guess it's a problem related to the mainboard.

  • i took out the plastic part underneath the hardware

    sometimes it works, than sometimes it wont, and it wuld give of signals without the correct input

    wah do i do

  • my psx controller works fine except one problem. its x button is on hold i mean its always pressed and thats why i cant use any other button. i used it in need for speed where u accelerate using x and it works completely fine even without pressing x button my car is running on full speed :).

    any idea to fix it. its 10 years old

  • @almas1989 yes, if you open the controller, you will see a plastic underneath every button (or one plastic for all buttons). Probably that's the problem. It's not in the right place.

  • @benwake07 yeah i will see but u know what my controller looks fine physically i mean the button is in right place not pressed or flat on surface. i will try ur method hopefully it will work. thanks for help

  • what about if all the buttons don't work but the analog light still works

  • @TOCORO100 yeh me too it keeps saying "please insert your Dualshock2 to controller slot 1 I CANT PLAY MY FAVORITE GAME UNTILL IT GETS FIXED SOMEONE HELP ME

  • @47474747z benwake.com

  • @lokostj acuall

  • What is Solder and Disolder?

  • От акцента веднага разбрах че си БГ:)

  • do you know if the PS2 R1 and L1 buttons are the same as the PS3 R1 and L1 buttons?

  • @CannabisSativa713 : I have no experience with a Playstation 3 controller, sorry. Maybe someone here can give you the answer

  • If a button is not working, open the controller and check if there is still a contact with the mainboard. If not, put a piece of paper in between. If there is a contact, I guess it's the mainboard.

    Remember, I am not responsible if anything happens to your controller, do it at your own risks :-)

  • my r1 is nt workin..

  • my "x" button doesn't work what should i do Q.Q

  • my problem is the joystick or i dont what is it...the toggle ?dont know...the problem 

    if i move it to down...it always on down it will not back to middle/origin place...sorry my bad english

  • my L1 button doesn't work.

    How do I fix that??

  • @47474747z : You can try to open the controller, and see if the button makes a contact with the mainboard. If not, put a piece of paper between both. I have a picture of this on my website.

  • my L1 button doesn't work.

    How do I fix that??

  • thanks no prob inglis

  • Hi again and i find the problem of my controller weeird it moves normally but when i do a hard movement i stays like that then by control is transparent and i see that the analog is fine it just doesn"t move back to place unless i move it back so is there any way you know that you can replace it with out replacing the handle

  • @TOCORO100 : First things first -> test another controller. If the other (working) controller gives the same problem, it is a problem with the playstation, not the controller and vice versa.

    If it is the controller, I suppose in the best case a wire is desoldered at the 'entrance' of the cables in the controller (you'll just have to solder it again). Otherwise, it's the mainboard that is faulty. Replacing it will be more expensive than a new controller.

  • @benwake07 u mean better to buy new ?

  • my controller has a faulty wire problem how do i fix this? please help

  • biste deutsch?

  • @to9rr9es9 : nein, von Belgien (Niederländisch)

  • we all know how a playstation 2 controller works we came here to see how to fix one smh -____-

  • WHY EVERYONE THAT OPENS A CONTRLLER NEVR EVER CLOSE IT AGAIN??, I WANT TO SEE THAT!

  • You said to put a little oil in the analog stick. What kind of oil?

  • @dino312989 : silicone oil for instance, oil that doesn't make a kind of 'pudding' after using it

  • What do you say between 2:57 - 3:00 ?!

  • @thebigboy1997 : put a little bit oil and put back the plastic and you should be ok

  • @benwake07 Thanx ! It worked !!!

  • can u please tell me ... My L1 button isn't working cool it works very little bit after pressing it Very very hard .. what should i suppose to do ?

  • @MrRoomi2009 : make it bigger with a piece of paper in order to make the contact better, check the picture on my site

  • I'm having problems taking out the electronics.... I feel like I'll break it if I pull any harder... I need to fix the up directional button ,L1 and L2 ... I have a DUALSHOCK2 controller; is this any different?

  • I'm having problems taking out the electronics.... I feel like I'll break it if I pull any harder... I need to fix the up directional button ,L1 and L2

  • I have a wireless pelican Controller for PS2. Is it the same kind of?

  • @dino312989 : the base technology should be the same, but the parts maybe not

  • @benwake07 Ah... It dosent matter anymore. My PS2 cant read disks anymore. That's the end of my PS2 slim.

  • @dino312989 : sorry to hear that :/

  • can someone plz plz plz plz help my controller is broken and it keeps moving to the right whenever i play a game

  • thanks brother great explanation

  • @RavenMadd9 : you're welcome, glad you like it

  • my analog stick seems to be broken, when i push it front it stays front and when i push it left it stays left. help me

  • i have a problem with my controller, is keeps pressing the Select button even thought i'm not pressing it. it's not stuck either.

  • i prefer the stick on the N64 to ps2 analog stick to be honest

  • @uwright22 well. they didnt broke, but they lose sensibilty really fast, more than the ps2´s controller...

  • I think guys don't know their own strength. lol.  I don't usually hear about girls breaking their controllers.

  • hey come and fix mi controller

  • I have a problem with the Triangle and R1+2. For some reason they set themselves all to O. So if i lightly press O it triggers normally, if i press hard on O it activates Triangle, R1 and R2. Triangle and R1+2 dont work at all. I tried pressing the black spot (where triangle should go, on top of the motherboard) with those rubber things over the buttons and get no response.  So i think i need a new one of those things that sends the signal to the motherboard.

  • instead of reparing my controller i fucked it up !!!!!!!!

  • Sony should make some shit that works.

  • @TOCORO100 I don't know what exactly is your case, but if you're using PS1 controller on your PS2, there are some games that are not playable using that controller since it is not supported by a certain game. If it's something else than that, then your controller is probably broken...

  • @TOCORO100 : maybe the controller is really broken, try the controller in another playstation

  • how in hell can i take off the R2 and L2 buttons??? the R2 is stuck like HELL!!!!

  • @RanakaHai : gently pull with a screwdriver

  • @benwake07 thx, but i realised it sooner then that. Thanks tho :)

  • your speak good english

  • hey i have a ps2 dualshock controller that doesnt work when i put it in the port it just acts as if the d pad or analog stick is stuck in forward but it isnt how do i fix this?

  • Can Someone help honestly just email me how to fix my controller its a Mad Catz dual force controller i just bought the simpsons hit and run but everytime i start the game it sends the controller into steering wheel mode it wont let me switch into analog mode please some one help i cant play my game

  • if it's the electronic board, I don't think there's a solution. Replacing the motherboard has the same price of a complete new controller, and more risky. correct me if I'm wrong

  • do u know how to fix the motherboard cuz ive switched analog sticks around b4 a few times but then when i put it back togerther no buttons work cuz probably the motherboard.help

  • @XxXchikXmagnetX95X : the mainboard is sometimes more expensive than a new controller. I would say: don't waste your time (it's also extremely complicated to change it)

  • @benwake07 if it says please insert your dualshock 2 tighten the wires and dust the inner parts DONT USE WATER it may explode like my dualshock

  • @bdkleadz indeed, use isopropanol or something similar :)

  • Dude your english is not that bad.

  • Check the analog stick video I made for you guys :)

  • my controller ,like, won't work.When ever I try and play a game with it,it like has a mind of its own and it's like someone is keep pushing buttons randomly,any idea on how to fix it?

  • I bought a PS2 controller it was playing well, then after i bought a memory card since i insert the memory card into my ps2 my controller keep acting crazy i cannot select, it keep going up and down on screen without me pressing any button.

    Can anyone help plz.

  • @crilin25

    try and remove you're controller and re-plug it , if u blow on the port that might clear some stuck dust too , always worked for me , hope this helps :)

  • @TheAsa92 cheerz mate will do it

  • The most challenging task is removing the screws. The reason is because the screw heads are prone to stripping and then what? You're boned! The rear trigger buttons were definitely a pain to put back into place. Thank you for the advice on those.

  • ok i was playing need for speed carbon on the ps2 and the controller keeps shorting out like every time i move it the analog light keeps coming on and off and sometimes when i drive the controller is doing its own thing do i need to buy another controller or does it just need cleaning on the inside please reply.

  • at the end of the cord of the contrller where you connect it to the ps2 my controller is missing one of the small metal wires

  • my analog stick isnt working...

  • my arrows and R1 R2 L1 L2 arent working

  • yeah all cool and easy to open and clean the controller, but the hardest part is imo to put it together again. the R2+L2 Buttons block.....

  • okay, the trick is: but front+back together first, then plugin the R+L Buttons afterwards. It works.

  • @howzeman indeed, that's the trick, otherwise you'll spend some hours putting them back

  • on mine when i press the bottons it wont do anything plz help

  • my anolog stick always squeaks plz reply wat to do

  • Yep, my black Controller has a squeky analog stick, too. So there is nothing to do, only to buy a new Controller. That means when your Analog Stick squeaks, it is broken some parts of it. Did you throw your Controller with fully power on the flor or it got fallen by itself?

  • when i bought it it started squeeking

  • can u do a tut with a wireless p2 controller.

  • mine looks completely different than yours

  • The anlog sticks always break!

  • @Flipflopab same....

  • @Flipflopab yeah....why huh ???....somebody know how to fix ps2 analog stick ???

  • ty so much!!!

  • my ps2 works well the red light goes on but in the game it says there is no controler ????

    plzz help pm me

  • @3111993evo I think that means that the system is not picking up on the stick even though the red light is on. I guess if the stick isn't working then the system assumes that there are no functional controllers plugged in. It's the same w/ mine - red light's on but the stick doesn't work and sometimes the system says there's no controller plugged in.

  • I have the same problem with on of my PS2 controllers. But get this: my old PS controller still works.
