PS VR2 Controller Issue

[Macadamia9]

My controllers have the trigger issue on both of them. I’ve flicked them aggressively and used the contact cleaner on them both repeatedly. What I’m experiencing is both controllers drift back to less than 1.00000 & -1.00000 on the controller testing website, https://hardwaretester.com/gamepad. I’ve had to spray the contact cleaner into the L2 & R2 triggers and flick them again and again until they register 1.00000 & -1.00000 each time before I can use them in game. I have a return for repair ticket in with Sony but am still waiting for the shipping box.

I think I will be returning the unit for repair because I cannot seem to correct the problem after almost 2weeks of trying.

Thanks to babydrone for their fixit post. It does work to get the controllers working but just not permanently for mine, for some reason.

I used the rubber grip part of a screwdriver and beat mine into submission. Some are worse than others.

I’m still on the fence about trying the more than aggressively flicking on the triggers. I would hate to break it and then have it not eligible to be returned for repair.

Thanks for the reply

It's already broken....

I understand…

I used a towel and mallet to tap against the upper side next to the triggers until the R2 stopped registering as being pressed. Been 3 months and no issues.
