SCUF Reflex (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 SCUF Reflex (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 SCUF Reflex (PS5) goes back with the new cell cycled and tested.

We open the controller and replace the 3.5 mm jack, or the small board it sits on where the controller uses one, using micro-soldering where the jack is mounted to the main board. The audio path is then tested with a headset on your SCUF Reflex (PS5) for left, right and mic.

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 SCUF Reflex (PS5) goes back with the original feel.

We check the power supply or battery first, then the port, fuses and power regulators on the board to find where the power stops. Faulty components are replaced with micro-soldering where needed and the board is tested under load. Your SCUF Reflex (PS5) is fully function tested before it goes back.

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 SCUF Reflex (PS5) is then charged from empty and tested wired to confirm data and power both work.

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 SCUF Reflex (PS5) is tested on a console before it goes back.

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 SCUF Reflex (PS5) is remapped and tested to confirm it registers.

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 SCUF Reflex (PS5) is then tested in a game to confirm the fix.

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 SCUF Reflex (PS5) keeps the same stick feel and cap height.

We strip the controller and replace worn button membranes and contacts, paddle levers or switches, and trigger parts in one session. Every input on your SCUF Reflex (PS5) is tested and the paddles remapped before it goes back.

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 SCUF Reflex (PS5) goes back with instructions on how to adjust the tension yourself.
