Dualsense battery doesn't charge, tried multiple batteries and cables

Hi, can someone help please? I replaced the batteries on my 2 ps5 controllers, charged both to 100% then turned on, everything was fine, but one drained almost straight away now won't hold any charge at all. The other one is fine. I have tried resetting this controller via the button on the back, and multiple chargers and cables. I also tried swapping batteries, and they both charge and stay charged in one controller but not the other. Can anyone give me any idea how to diagnose and fix the problem?

Hi AndyE!

It really sounds like a bad replacement part... I would get yourself a new battery and see how that goes!

This should solve the issue!

Hi, thanks for the answer but I have tried a known good battery and charge cable in this controller, and it just switches off when disconnected holding no charge.

That is weird... Can you share some photo's with us regarding the motherboard?? Thanks! It must be something on the motherboard causing this..

Here's a photo. If I knew what to check using my multimeter it would make it easier for me to diagnose. https://photos.app.goo.gl/xDVasYVpegEyMH...

Hi Andy! Hard to find indeed... First, Did you tried to test the battery pins (and the other ends on the motherboard) with a continuity test? Are those fine??

Otherwise, it's probably a faulty power IC. You can buy them here: https://www.aliexpress.us/item/325680920...
