If you have had your PS4 controller for awhile the springs metal loose their tension.

You can get replacement springs. Ebay, amazon, etc.

Youtube video shows you how to do it.

Well Done :) Double Thumbs up. Don't be scared of trying to fix things. Big companies just want you to buy again. Just take your time. Do a little research. It can be fun to do & save you cash in the process. Winner, Winner, Chicken Dinner!!
