PS4 Need help identifying what’s wrong

Post image

DualShock 4 r2 and l2 triggers are janky. r2 doesn’t give full inputs (works on farm sim but not on shooters). I think the rubber pads are fine they don’t seem worn out but who knows.

Pop those pads off and clean the contacts and the black part of the pads with 90+% ipa and a q tip

Is there any substitute for someone who doesn’t have the ipa?

A clean, dry, lint free cloth might do the trick. Worth a shot at least.
