Battle Beaver (PS5) controller repair

We remove the worn caps and fit new ones matched to the controller, checking the stick module underneath for drift at the same time. Your Battle Beaver (PS5) goes back with fresh grips and no change to the stick feel.

We open the controller, disconnect and remove the old battery, and fit a new battery of the same type and capacity. The charging circuit is checked and the controller is charged from empty to full to confirm it holds a charge. Your Battle Beaver (PS5) goes back with the new cell cycled and tested.

We open the controller and replace the port, or the small port board on controllers that use one, using micro-soldering where the port is fixed to the main board. The charging circuit is checked to make sure the port was the only fault. Your Battle Beaver (PS5) is then charged from empty and tested wired to confirm data and power both work.

We open the controller, desolder the worn stick modules from the board and fit new potentiometer modules of the same type the controller shipped with. Both sticks are checked on a test rig for centring, range and circularity before the controller is closed up. Your Battle Beaver (PS5) goes back with the original feel.

We strip the controller and inspect the button contacts, rubber membranes and the board pads under them. Worn membranes and contacts are replaced, corrosion on the pads is cleaned off, and any physically damaged button caps are swapped. Every button on your Battle Beaver (PS5) is tested on a console before it goes back.

We open the controller and check the trigger spring, pivot, sensor and the motor where the controller has one. Worn or broken parts are replaced and the trigger is tested through its full travel so it reads from zero to full pull. Your Battle Beaver (PS5) is then tested in a game to confirm the fix.

We open the rear of the controller and inspect the paddle levers, the tactile switches they press and the board pads. Broken levers are replaced and worn switches are soldered out and replaced. Each paddle on your Battle Beaver (PS5) is remapped and tested to confirm it registers.

We remove the original potentiometer modules and fit TMR (tunnelling magnetoresistance) stick modules, which read position with a magnetic sensor rather than a carbon track. Each stick is centred and tested for full range, dead zone and circularity on a test rig. Your Battle Beaver (PS5) keeps the same stick feel and cap height.

We strip the controller and replace worn button membranes, contacts and trigger parts in one go, cleaning the board pads and checking the sensors as we work. Every input on your Battle Beaver (PS5) is tested on a console before reassembly.

We desolder the worn modules and fit GuliKit TMR stick modules, which read position magnetically and have a tension adjustment on each stick. We set the tension to a neutral starting point and test both sticks for centre, range and circularity. Your Battle Beaver (PS5) goes back with instructions on how to adjust the tension yourself.
