Solve Your PS VR2 Controller Issues with These Easy Tips

Have you ever unboxed your new PlayStation VR2, set it up perfectly, and then faced a frustrating issue where some buttons on your controller just don't work? Everything seemed fine until you started a game. Your motion controls are working, but those pesky buttons aren't responding. Is it a software bug, or something else? Don't worry, you're not alone. Many have faced this challenge, and luckily, it's fixable without taking your controller apart. Let's break down how you can troubleshoot and fix these PS VR2 controller woes.

How to Verify Hardware Problems

Before diving into fixes, ensure your controller truly needs repair. Here's a simple way to check:

  • Connect your problematic controller to your computer using the USB cable provided.
  • Visit a gamepad testing website.
  • Check the number under Axis 2. Press and release the trigger (R2 or L2). It should show 1.00000 when fully pressed and released.
  • If it doesn't, test your other controller to confirm which one is faulty.

If you see different numbers when the trigger is released, your controller needs attention.

How to Fix Your Controller's Faulty Trigger

Instead of exchanging your VR kit or contacting Sony support, try this home solution. The issue often stems from debris inside the controller. Here's how to fix it:

  1. If available, use contact cleaner on the trigger.
  2. Press and release the trigger rapidly, allowing it to bounce back. Repeat this process.
  3. If you lack contact cleaner, use compressed air on the trigger while flicking it.
  4. Gently tap your controller on a surface at an angle, pressing and releasing the trigger simultaneously.

This process might take a few minutes, but once resolved, you can enjoy games like Horizon Call Of The Mountain without interruptions.
