AIM PS5 Controller Sticky or Unresponsive Button Repair
Sticky or unresponsive face buttons and D-pad on a AIM PS5 Controller are fixed for £49.99. We open the pad, clean or replace the face buttons and D-pad contacts and test every press. 12-month warranty. Typical turnaround is 2-3 hours. Because the AIM PS5 is built on a DualSense, we work on the stock board and the AimControllers parts on top of it.
Typical repair time: 2-3 hours
All AIM PS5 Controller repairs
Deep Clean is a clean, not a repair: full strip-down, ultrasonic clean of the shell, buttons and sticks, sanitised and rebuilt. No parts fitted and no fault fixed - tick it alongside a repair to get both done in one go. Same turnaround as the repair.
