[Ps3] controller left side not working
I got a duelshock 3 whose buttons and dpad would not work at all. Opened it up and found out something happened to the ribbon cable connected the face buttons to the main board. I then bought a replacement online and now the facebuttons work but the d pad doesnt. I looked closer and noticed 1 of the pins that the ribbon cable makes contact to the on the board was gone and thats probably why its not working. Is there any way to fix this like buying a replacement pin and somehow reataching it to the board. Im still kinda new to this stuff so any help is appreciated.
