Are There Any Places In The USA Than Can Fix PS3 Controllers ? My PS3 Controller Needs Fixed The X Button Is Not Working At All. I Do Have Another PS3 Controller That Does Work. I Don't Have The Money To Go Out & Spend
$60.00 On Another Controller.
 
You can do it yourself pretty easily as long as it's not something serious/electronic. Just open it up CAREFULLY, follow an online video if it helps to remember how to put it back together.

DISCLAIMER: This will void your warranty, but if it's expired or you don't care about it, then go ahead and open up the controller and fix the problem.

Its not that easy lol, you would need the tools for it, they aren't common household/garage tools!

The hardest part is sealing it back up!

Ummm... I do this regularly with just a small phillips head that came with my $20 tool kit from Lowes... You could probably buy a cheap one at the 99c store or something.

I do have a question regarding the controllers though. I have bought 3 controllers because after a while they start pressing random buttons that Im not even remotely close to. I have no other idea on how to explain this. It usually happends when Im playing a FPS like Call Of Duty or something like that though. For example, I press L3 to sprint and all of a sudden the character decides to jump, throw a granade, and/or pull out the knife. Is this something that happens regularly? Again, all THREE controllers do this, one more frequently than the other two, and I bought them brand new from Walmart at $55, almost $60.
