Thanks for the reply. Someone already answered my question on Reddit. Even though your reply didn't help, I had already fixed it weeks ago.

How do I identify which membrane is compatible with my controller? The X button suddenly stopped working while playing NFS 2015. I restarted both the controller and console, but the issue persists. I decided to check AliExpress for replacement parts, but I'm not sure which membrane is compatible...

I had the same issue with the PS3 Slim I bought on Yahoo Japan Auctions. I initially used only a little thermal paste, and the console would shut off with a blinking red light after about five minutes of use. My mistake was not applying enough thermal paste the 4g of MX-6 I had left wasn’t...

It's a Chinese brand synthetic grease, but thanks for the response anyway. I actually made things even worse a couple of days ago. I took the console apart again because the disc drive kept ejecting itself. This was after the fourth time I disassembled it. (For context, the third time I took it...

Not too long ago I watched Mr. Mario's HEN upgrade video, and it seems so. To be honest, I don't know much about HEN, nor am I interested in installing it since my PS3s are CFW-compatible. I only installed HEN once on a friend's PS3 Super Slim and didn’t experiment with it after the...

It's easy to change the Slim's hard drive, although you will have to start from scratch reinstall the OFW and install HEN again. Also, do you plan to retain any data on the PS3 before the upgrading the internal hdd? If so, back it up first and ensure everything is functional, such as the Blu-ray...

A couple of days ago, I changed my PS2 clock battery. After reassembling it, the disc drive worked fine. However, the disc tray no longer stays closed. Every time I open it, it closes by itself, which wasn’t the case before I took it apart. Yesterday, I bought an SW-92SA and reapplied lubricant...
