PS3 Controller Light Mod
First you will need to disassemble the PS3 controller. You can find that here.
Now that you have disassembled the PS3 controller we can begin.
Start out by getting some 0603 surface mount leds available at llamma's shop here (or from
somewhere else, if you'd prefer) and some basic soldering skills would be helpful.
Start off with soldering the led to the LED5 spot on the board with the positive on the left and the
negative on the right as shown in the picture,
Sony must have some ideas for putting a led there but never did. The spot still has a positive but no
negative so we have to add a negative to the led, the led in this tutorial is always on because I haven't
found a negative source that turns one when power goes through it.
Ok continuing on the next step is to add the negative so I connected the hole the led connects to to hole
5 on the board (see the pictures).
