Works well on my ps5 controller

Normally I don't give a 5, but I can't complain about this kit. Got really tired of having to fix the drift by opening up the controller, bending back the potentiometers, and cleaning them. First it was cleaning them once a year, then once every couple of months. Then after the 5th cleaning, the right controller would not move all the way to the left even though the stick is all the way there.Instead of replacing both gimbals assemblies, I just bent back the four potentiometers and replaced them. Works great, no drift. (I will come back to edit this review if the controllers start drifting again).Anyone who does this fix needs to make sure they have:- Flux- Solder/Solder Gun (30W)- Solder Wick- Isopropyl Alcohol - for cleaning up the fluxPro Tip: The PS5 factory solder has a rather high melting point compared to the stuff you bought for this project. I'm not into heat guns or that solder sucker tool.1. Bend the old potentiometers back and forth until they snap off.2. Drop a dab of flux on the solder point.3. Cut a piece of wick and coat it in Flux.4. Apply wick on top of point and heat with gun.5. Repeat 1 through 4.6. Occasionally re-solder the point - I know this is counter-intuitive but your solder will "mix" with the original solder and will actually make the wick more effective.7. Eventually the remaining piece will wiggle and you can pull it out with the tweezers8. Be patient.Good: The screw driver is slightly magnetic which is nice for pulling out the screws. The tweezers are fairly hefty!

i cannot say if it worked or i fouled up the installation. so i will give it 4 stars. i am doing so because the original was hard to remove and i may have damaged the trace on the pcb. but it fitted in nicely. however, the controller did not come on. so i believe i damage the pcb

I managed to fix two controllers with this set, but some of the sensors seamed used and unusable cause their was a yellowish/ green tinge kinda gunk on them so I'd rather not risk it when trying to fix electronics, you want clean parts, I used only the clean ones

This is a great set given all the tools they include. The potentiometers are the exact same as the ones in my controller. You get extra thumb pads (not really needed but nice to have). The only reason I didn't give this 5 stars was the tweezers are nice but need to have slightly larger pads as they do not help with pulling out the ribbon cables. Great for a small splinter though, LOL. I had to use my small needle nose plyers to get the ribbon cables off and on. Also, I installed a new assembly as my issue I was having was stick drift to the left. After replacing the whole assembly the issue is corrected but I have ever so slight drift now to the upper right if looking at a map on HellDivers II. My character does not move nor does the my curser move if I am in the main menu like it did before replacing only if I am looking at the map so I am satisfied. One side note, if you plan on unsoldering and soldering these in, I highly recommend using a good heat gun as the pads are double sided and a soldering iron just doesn't get it hot enough to melt the solder on both sides. I struggled using just my adjustable soldering station to get the old ones out. I also used solder wick and a solder sucker but ended up tearing a small run when removing the pot. Wasn't an issue since it just tied the two legs of the R3 switch together which the run on the opposite side did as well.

My PS5 controller had a broken thumbstick and a small but annoying drift. This kit solved both and I'm pretty happy with it. The thumbstick replacements are nice and good quality. Thankfully I only needed to replace the wiper of the potentiometer but that fixed my drift issue. The included tools are actually going to replace the ones I was using, as I prefer them. Plus the little rubber thumbstick protectors (where my thumbstick broke) are a small but nice addition. Would recommend to anyone wanting to repair their own controllers instead of buying new.

Bought these to fix the drift. You need to soldering to not easy. I switched out the circular rings within each of the squares with new ones from the package and it worked like a charm. Screwdriver provided and Alaric spatula did the trick for disassbly.

For starters, all of what’s included here was shipped in a little plastic bag with most of the joystick modules not even having separate packaging.I replaced potentiometers in two separate controllers, first controller now entirely does not work (replaced both pmeters in both joysticks) second controller now suddenly always presses up on the dpad, only replaced the potentiometers for the left analog stick, rendering two controllers completely unusable now.Dont waste your money.

I ordered this because I had a drift issue in my ps5 controller. I replaced the parts and the drift got worst. I kept changing the parts but ot no avail the drifting was getting worst.i had an older controller with broken cover. I took the original parts from it and replaced them with the other controller and now everything is working 100% perfect.This product is defective and does not fix your drifting issue if you are looking to fix that. Try someone else. Do not waste your money.
