How to replace or put back in PS4 controller trigger springs old v1 controller

This video is for the older style ps4 controller trigger spring as most how to guides only cover the newer version which has a different placement of the spring

[@michaellarue5161]

Your the only one I could find on CZcams that actually shows how to do the spring on this particular model. Thank you

[@DanglerSpangler]

Thank you! For anyone having trouble, a few tips.
If you have trouble keeping the springs in while reattaching the triggers, try:
1. Straightening the "wings" of the springs a bit (mine looked a bit like fish hooks).
2. Placing the end of a small phillips head screwdriver at the base of the ring once the spring is in place to keep it from jumping off.

When i pinched the spring replacements i got for my ps4 they were digging into my fingers like needles, and at the end of it I realized i had the wrong model. So i did what any sane person would do and took two safety pins, cut and bent them to size and improvised with that and it works great.

I've been thinking broke my controller. It sat there for a year. All i needed was to warch this video 🤦🏿‍♂️

[@ryanscott5328]

Ok so I have the same springs as you but they seem to be facing the other way? What PS4 version controller do I have?! I can't find any videos on how to replace the spring 😢

[@thomasb4863]

This is v1, v2 controllers are slightly different. The other videos on youtube cater towards that design, mine is the only one ive seen of the v1

[@ryanscott5328]

@@thomasb4863 yours is the only video on CZcams for V1, but my controller has the same springs but like in reverse, like a V1.5 or something 🤷🏼‍♂️

​@@ryanscott5328same, did you end up fixing yours?

[@ryanscott5328]

@@NoobMaster-vl7vd unfortunately not. I ended up buying a new controller instead but still have this one to the side if I ever find a way to fix it

[@ryanscott5328]
