Schritt 3

Once the device is opened, lift the battery out of the black plastic holder.
Carefully pull the battery out and ensure that it's wires are still connected to the inside.

You can disconnect the back/trigger assembly ribbon cable at this point by proceeding to Steps 13/14 (without the other steps for disassembly as they are unnecessary for replacing just the trigger).

Accidentally ripped this off as my PS Move is a different model, any chance this could be fixed using like jumper wires or not?

This step is destructive and simply breaks the LED solder joints!!!

Ein Kommentar

This disassembly is destructive (namely to the LED connector as it is soldered to the main board) and has many unnecessary steps for simply replacing the trigger button assembly. It also says no parts are required but you would clearly need replacement trigger parts.
