Even though there was an uncomfortable feeling that the R1 button was concave, I decided to return it since the inspection showed there was nothing wrong.

If a professional says so after inspecting it, I guess I have no choice but to accept that it was that way from the beginning…

I don’t think it qualifies for repairs just because it feels off.

Just to be sure, would it be possible to request just a parts replacement?

It seems that even within the passing range, there’s a difference in satisfaction between 80 points and 90 points.

When you spray and feel like you’re good at taking care of things, you can easily break it.

Human fingers are incredibly delicate, so even if something is functional, it can still feel uncomfortable.

If the rubber dome is torn, it’s definitely a problem, but if it doesn’t return perfectly due to manufacturing errors or something like that, there’s nothing you can do when there’s no reproducibility…

It seems that the right RT had many instances of the spring breaking in the early models, but isn’t that just a trick of the mind with R1?

It’s about the gamepad, but there was a time when the trigger’s contact became suspicious.

The warranty had long expired, and I had bought a screwdriver set, prepared for it to break, to fix it.

Right now, it’s helpful that there’s information online for things like controller repairs (crack).

There’s no such thing as RT…

>>12

He says it’s his hometown.

>>13

Is it America…?

Isn’t it the case that the feel of the button is the only thing you’re concerned about, and there are no issues with operation?

The Ellicon will replace the XYAB button immediately without checks!

Recently, the battery has been dying and it runs out of charge in about 30 minutes.

I guess I can just buy a replacement battery on Amazon or something.

If the reproducibility is low or if it feels more like a personal impression, then…

It’s quicker to replace it than to investigate the cause…

I think it’s just about connecting normally and then saying “high operation OK” to finish.

Maybe they won’t disassemble it unless they can clearly see the defects.

I wish the hardware companies would accept repairs for old models, even if it’s only once every five years.

Most of our hardware over 15 years old is pretty much on its last legs.

>>20

The parts guarantee is valid for up to 8 years after production has ended.

In the first place, Sony probably doesn’t have a proper repair center in Japan.

If it’s beyond the warranty, it’s better to disassemble and clean it.

It might be clogged with dirt.

The Nacon PS4 controller had the L and R buttons constantly breaking, and I sent it for repair about five times during the warranty period, all of which resulted in replacement with brand new ones.

If it’s clearly crushed, we will replace it immediately.

Smash it!

Whispers of a Gorilla

After the warranty expired, I submitted it for repair due to clear symptoms of rubber damage, but they said it would be a complete replacement. What should I do?

Of course, I declined and replaced the parts myself.

If you buy an edge, you can change it as much as you want.

I have various DS consoles, but my first one is still active.

The other four are only used when playing Overcooked and Bomberman.

Well, eventually the warranty will expire, so I think it’s better to prepare a kit to secure a spare and be able to repair it yourself.

It’s really stupid that there are purchase restrictions on modules because of resellers.

When I sent that there was a strange noise like a “keen” sound when I bought the PS5 console,

They confirmed the unusual sound and replaced it from the circuit board before sending it back.

>>33

What was the reason?

>>34

I don’t know… Replacing the base means something was probably ringing there, but…

>>33

I want to ask, do I not need to reset it before sending it for repair?

I’ve never sent anything for repair, so I don’t know what to do when I need to send it.

>>40

I think it said to back up because it will be reset and returned to the official repair center.

Just to be safe, I sent it after initializing.

>>56

It gets reset, huh?

You saved me, thank you.

The price has become so high that I sometimes prefer to use products from other manufacturers instead of the original.

Especially in games that require rapid button pressing.

>>37

You should spend some money on your hobbies.

It’s not a significant amount, but…

AMD GPUs produce coil whine when VSYNC is off, so it’s likely that the PS has similar phenomena occurring with individual variations.

I feel like the coil whine of defective units was mentioned early on.

When it comes to repair, if you say something like “don’t take it lightly,” in Japan it’s for a fee, but there are places overseas that repair for free…

Please sell the stick modules as a set.

You can’t tell by the appearance, but there have been quite a few version changes.

I don’t know how it’s getting better, but…

>>45

The DS4 was easier to disassemble in the later models.

I also felt something off with the memory slot of my 2DS and sent it in for repairs, but it came back just as it was, with nothing wrong.

The support here is a very typical response, for better or worse.

There’s nothing bad to say about it.

I remember doing PlayStation repairs in places like Iwate.

Is there a chance we could do something like those smartphone repair services often found in department stores?

I will pay, so I want the repair acceptance period to be longer.

One year for EDGE is a bit short.

Rather than asking for a repair, I’ll just buy a new one.

>>52

The current DS makes me hesitate when it’s not on sale at the regular price…

The feel of the rubber changes due to the manufacturing period and aging, which is problematic.

The repair parts around there are a bit scary.

The brand new one I bought at the beginning of February is working fine, but when I set the dead zone lower for the left stick in the Monster Hunter OBT options, the left stick keeps going left, which feels a bit unsettling.

>>54

How about trying to reset it once?

>>58

I wonder if it will get fixed by reconnecting after a reset.

I’ll try it out if the OBT comes this weekend. Thank you.

Except for when it breaks terribly within the warranty period, it would be better to consider it just a consumable and use a new one.

I once twisted the directional keys a bit because they were squeaking, and it somehow fixed the issue.

At one point, when the DS4 was out of stock and it happened to be malfunctioning, I had no choice but to buy just the rubber parts on Amazon and fix it.

I’m really scared to pry something that is tightly stuck open.

Well, if the foundation changes, it will definitely require a reset.

Is it impossible for paid repairs too? So you’re saying you’ll send it back since there’s no issue…?

Lowering the dead zone will cause even static electricity to react, so that’s not good.

Only the left stick was drifting, but today the right stick started drifting too, and while I was playing Yakuza, Kiryu ended up becoming a guy who just kept spinning around in place.

>>67

What…?

If you use the warranty from the paid membership at the electronics store, you can easily get a new controller even if you’ve broken it.

Even if you say the analog stick is broken, there are multiple causes, so without the knowledge to make a self-judgment, it’s of no use at all…

If it’s Kiryu, there’s no helping it…

If you use contact revitalizer from the gaps without disassembling it, the silicone rubber will be ruined!

It’s unreasonable to bring up Nintendo regarding the warranty for the controller!

There is little that can be understood from the outside about anything.

Even if I say I need to break it down, if I don’t have any specialized knowledge, there are still things I won’t understand.

>>77

If you don’t mind doing something outside of warranty, you can reset the pairing and the stick to the default values by endlessly rotating the stick and then use the center value written online.

If that still doesn’t work, take it apart and remove the garbage; if that doesn’t work either…

>>84

A junk item that is out of warranty for repairs has arrived!

No one can guarantee something that has no reproducibility, not even to the degree of discomfort…

I have all the repair tools ready, but should I buy spare parts while I still can?

>>81

If you have knowledge and skills, then that’s fine.

If you disassemble it, the warranty will be voided, and since a DS is fairly expensive, it’s hard to do it.

>>82

Since the paid warranty is expiring, you can just do it afterward.
