Do a barrel roll!
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Hi Guys,

My controller has been playing up... The direction buttons & square, triangle etc buttons are like there sticking!!!

Questions:
Do I now need a new controller??
Can I take them apart delicately and clean them up???
I do have another controller but thats not the point is it!!!

Help greatly appreciated as getting annoyed with sticky buttons for games right at the cruical point!!!

Phone Sony if your warranty is still valid,tell them what's the problem, they will give you an address for you to send the controller, then if what you say is true, you get a new controller

new controller? Probably not most things can be fixed , try opening up the controller and take the buttons out the case completely andd clean them.

You talkin to me?
Yeah I had a few buttons stick on me. I took the controller apart and cleaned it thoroughly and it worked like a charm.

I can get a better idea if it's fixable or not if you answer this for me, has it ever been dropped or thrown and has anything ever been spilled on it?
