If XYAB or DPAD doesnt work anymore?
Aside from cleaning the membrane, what kind of repair to expect when it becomes unresponsive due to usage?
Is dit een goede vraag?

Hi
Theres 2 ways you can go about this
1)you could replace the ribbon cable to resolve the issue
Or
2)you could take the cable out and find out where the broken trace is and solder it back together
Ether method should work fine
Hopefully this helps
Any questions please ask
Thanks:-)

@hellomacos I mean from wear and tear after constant button mashing, and also the D Pad?
@Emman anunimuus
Have you opened it up yet?
Not yet, can those contacts get soldered again to refresh it's function?
@Emman anunimuus
Yes but only if there’s a torn trace
Here’s a photo of a torn trace

If you don’t have soldering experience I recommend replace the cable or you could use silver conductive paint:-)
@hellomacos Sorry for the ignorance of using terminology it seems were not on the same page, I mean those 4 circle on the motherboard which the buttons press. Are they repairable?
