    • Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the four 6.4 mm-long screws from the rear panel.

    • Four fragile plastic clips hold the panels together. You can see their locations more clearly in this guide.

    • The clips help hold the seams together. If you break these clips, the controller will still work.

    • Insert an opening tool into the crease where the front and rear panel meet, starting from the outside edge of either handle.

    • Gently pry the rear panel off of the front panel until they become partially separated.

    easy, but quite brute way of opening the rear panel without the opening tool: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wYybiBBL...

    watch the opening from the back part only, then return here.

    That worked but a couple clips broke in the process. Beware for people trying this method.

    There are 4 tab clips total, 2 at the top corners (very easy to break) and 2 at the bottom near the ports. The screws will keep it together even if they do break but be careful if you don’t want to break them.

    I've written a guide to help others find the clips and unlatch them.

    • Lift the rear panel directly away from the controller.

    • Do not completely remove the rear panel. It is still attached to the controller by a ribbon cable.

    • Use your fingers to gently pull the ribbon cable straight out of its connector on the motherboard.

    • Since this cable's pull tab is too small to grab with fingers or tweezers, grab the cable itself. Otherwise utilize pull tabs whenever possible.

    • During reassembly, grab the ribbon cable by the blue tab and gently press the cable straight into the connector. Push the blue tab rather than the ribbon cable itself.

    I'm struggling getting the ribbon to connect back in. Why might that be?

Question:

I have a ps4 controller model CUH-ZCT2U. My charging board model is jds 050.

Can I buy the jds 055 charging board and put that in? Is the jds 050 and the jds 055 charging board interchangeable?

I can't seem to find the jds 050 charging boards anywhere. Only the jds 055. Any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks.

Treadway Customs -

I have not tested the JDS-055 and JDS-050 in a ZCT2U so I cannot guarantee it will work. However, visually they appear to be the same part made by a different manufacturer. I suspect that it will work, but understand that it’s a gamble and make sure the store you buy from has a good return policy like iFixit. If you can wait, add yourself to the notify list for the JDS-050 and order once they become available again.
