Hello all

Just joined the forum. Looking for some specific advice about a couple of pieces I'm not sure about in a CUH-ZCT1E (grey anniversary) controller I'm in the process of putting back together (battery died so I'm putting in a new one).

When I took it apart a while ago, there were a couple of these little pieces that I'm not sure of. I'll try to include a photo. I believe they have something to do with the reset button but I'm not sure.

If you know how they are supposed to go back in, or can point me to a guide or video that shows how, that would be great - I've tried searching and can't find videos that deal with this specifically.

Cheers

Edit: I decided to try putting it back together without them; I doubt they have some crucial function even though the controller won't turn with the new battery - I don't think the new battery is the issue as I just installed an identical one in another one of my (less) busted controllers. The ribbon circuit appears to be fine, so I'm dreading that perhaps the motherboard is toast. Any suggestions welcome.

I’ve disassembled a PS5 controller but not a PS4 one.
Post a photo of the parts as it sounds like they could be important if the controller no longer works.
