Review on Orange 4PCs Replacement Analog Joystick with Trimmer Potentiometer Sensor for PS4 Pro DualShock ๐ŸŽฎ 4 - Repair Parts 3D Thumb Stick Wireless Controller Rocker Module with Screwdriver Tool Kit by Stacy Sturm

Revainrating 4 out of 5

ALPS sticks are the same as the original OEMs; Need good soldering skills to replace the entire assembly

60w or so this is required = quick note: if you don't have a vise or holder, get one of those quick release rods first, as you'll be able to use them be able to hold a small board at an angle on the table to disassemble the assembly. Solder 2 small vibrator motors "red and black wires" to board 1 so you can remove the board. Yes; It would be helpful and easier if you replaced the entire wand assembly with a small heat gun, heat all 14 pins, then remove the assembly at once. Be careful not to overheat them as this will melt the plastic so it will be enough to melt the solder soldering iron 60w or so works x ok and solder sucker or solder wick always best for you to clean holes around to use new ones. Take your time, I did this with a soldering iron without a heat gun, breaking the sticks first and then soldering each pin, but it took a lot longer and harder to do it this way. As mentioned, if you don't have to do the whole joystick assembly, without soldering, you can try replacing just the white sensor on the blue-green sides first. You can also desolder just the culprit's 3-pin blue-green potentiometer if it doesn't work, or replace it entirely if all else fails; I hope this helps a lot of people trying to make this LoL C
