Is your controller button unresponsive or acting erratically? The conductive film inside might be worn out. This replacement flex cable is designed to restore proper button registration and bring your original Sony controller back to reliable working condition.

This conductive film keypad sits beneath the controller's buttons and acts as the bridge between your press and the circuit board. Over time, these films can wear down from heavy use, causing missed inputs or sticky buttons. Replacing it is a straightforward fix that can extend the life of your controller without needing to buy a new one.

Each film is precision-cut to match the original layout, ensuring a snug fit and consistent contact. It works with a wide range of Sony PlayStation models, including PS2, PS3, PS4 (including Pro and Slim), and PS5 (V1, V2, V3). The ribbon cable is flexible and durable, designed to withstand repeated presses while maintaining a responsive feel.

If you enjoy repairing your own gear or want to save money on a replacement controller, this conductive film is a practical and cost-effective solution. It is a small part that makes a big difference in how your controller performs.

Usage Scenario

Mark had been using the same PS4 controller for four years. Lately, the X button started missing inputs during intense matches.

The button felt responsive again, and he saved over fifty dollars compared to buying a new controller.
