Ps button on ps4 controller is automatically long pressing
My Ps4 controller is acting weird
To keep it as short as possible, so i was playing GOW one day and suddenly my ps4 controller got turned off (it had full battery), and when i tried to switch it on it wont. When i plug it in the charger it is charging normally so it did not die on me, and i could narrow down the problem but there was no solution on the internet for it so here i am. ( i have opened it up and cleaned it properly)
Basically what happens is the controller is thinking that is PS button is long pressed the whole time. When i single press the button it registers as a long press and when i keep it idle then it switches off like when you hold the ps button for 5-7 seconds then it wont turn back on so i have to open it up again and reassemble ( and no the casing is not tight ive tried when the case is loose and super tight) When i open it up and reassemble it, it works fine for a few minutes and then the problem starts again.
The button works just fine without the plastic case when i press the rubber pad on the circuit ribbon button but the problem starts after a few minutes when i reassemble it. The pad is sitting in the correct position as well so no problem there. Any anyone help me with this or has anyone faced this situation before?
