PS5 DualSense Edge Controller Stick Module Replacement

简介

The PS5 DualSense Edge (Pro) Controller is packed with cutting-edge features like adaptive triggers and advanced haptic feedback, delivering an immersive gaming experience. Though, even the most high-tech gear isn't immune to wear and tear. One of the most common issues gamers face is stick drift, when the analog stick starts moving on its own or responds inaccurately, throwing off your aim or camera during gameplay.

Stick drift can result from everyday use, dust buildup, or natural wear of the stick module. Unfortunately, many users assume the only solution is to replace the entire controller, an expensive and wasteful choice.

The good news? You don't need to be a pro to fix stick drift. Replacing the stick module is easier than you might think, and doing it yourself can save money, extend the life of your controller, and reduce e-waste.

This step-by-step guide will walk you through the repair process so you can get back to gaming with precision, without breaking the bank or adding to the landfill. Let’s get started!
