PS5 Controller Touchpad Not Working? Try These Troubleshooting Steps

Is your PS5 controller’s touchpad not working? Don’t worry, you’re not alone. This issue can be frustrating, but it’s often easy to fix. In this tutorial, we’ll walk you through some troubleshooting steps to get your touchpad up and running again.

Minor Software Issue

In most cases, a minor software issue is the culprit behind a non-functional touchpad. To resolve this, try updating your controller’s firmware. If your controller is already running the latest firmware, attempt to re-sync your controller with your PlayStation 5 console.

If updating and re-syncing don’t work, it’s possible that there’s a more serious issue at play.

Major Hardware Issue

If you’ve tried the above steps and your touchpad still isn’t working, it’s likely that there’s a hardware issue. In this case, the problem might be with the connection between the touchpad and the motherboard.

To fix this, you may need to replace your controller’s touchpad. This can be a bit more involved, but it’s still a relatively straightforward process.
