    Need some Dualshock 3 Controller help...


    I have 2 PS3's and I am going through a lot of controllers lately.

    I would like to start opening them up and try to fix some of these problems myself rather than buy new controllers.

    I found plenty of youtube vids to help and I have about 3 or 4 controllers I can cannibalize.

    Is there a good way to calibrate or test the controller so I know what buttons are working?

    Thanks

    Calibration might not be done until the console is turned on, rather than done on the controller, similar to how the 360 does it.

    Speculation at best, but otherwise can't help ya. Good luck.

      Maybe you could try DS3 Tool. It's an emulator that allows you to use your PS3 controller on a PC. It also has a nice testing thing that will show you if your buttons are working or not.
