kanbad Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 well i was playing lbp2 and i noticed R2 trigger on my ds3 was hanging loose compared to L2...was surprised as the trigger was not behaving the way it should....evn d slight touch was activating the trigger...... searched the net and saw many people were facing the same problem..... the problem occurs due to broken spring in the side of the triggers......n problem is there is no spare part available... it took me 5 hrs to solve d problem.. trust me i tried alll the tin wires of differnt guages n also tried differnt size safety pins(as d shape of d spring resembles it).... then i also used spring found in pen as suggested by some guy on some website.... but it dint solve d problem... at the end read somwhere that the spring is same as the ones used in floppy disks , only better.... used that spring and bam problem solved... better than original as d spring has one extra turn so it makes is more solid.... opening the ds3 can be found all over the net..just 5 scrws n one clip.....hope this helps ... god bless...

kanbad Posted February 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2011 well chances are that the spring is going to break in a few days.... floppy disk spring is d definitive replacement.... but it will require a lot of patience to put it back..... but worth d time n effort...

This, I have felt the same way from day 1 I got the DS3 in my hand. It's damn too small and design isn't the best. It's got great tech to go with it, that's all.
