I want to fix the drift that occurs after replacing the sticks for rep
The right stick broke on my DualShock 4, so I decided to replace the stick and repair it myself.
For this purpose, I purchased an orange stick made by favor.union on Amazon.
After I managed to finish replacing the stick, I checked the condition of the stick with a pad tester and found that for some reason it had drifted even though it was brand new.
This was due to the fact that during the replacement, the controller adds a hardware identification feature, so when the joystick is changed, the setting does not work and the wrong resistance is generated.
The stick I purchased from Amazon had a board for adjustment that came with it. So they can adjust the incorrectly generated resistance.
However, even if I fixed the drift with that, it did not give me a usable feel that I am satisfied with.
I was told that I could correct the incorrectly generated resistance by adding a 0402 33 18k resistor, but I could not figure out where to solder the resistor.
As a result, the stick drift was solved by getting a warranty from sony.
Of course, the controller that received that warranty was another broken controller.
How does sony repair sticks?
I really wonder.
Is this a good question?
