eXtremeRate PS5 DualSense Controller DTF LED Kit V3 Installation Guide - On/Off Sync with Controller 

First things first: Incredible product. I just received mine today for the BDM-020 (thankfully both of my controllers are this model), as well as my Canada themed front shell and black pebble-textured back shell (yep, I went all out. Merry Christmas to me!). The shell replacements were super easy. The key thing to remember (and I'll mention this again) is that you GO SLOW and TAKE YOUR TIME. Do NOT rush anything, despite thinking you know what the next step is. Even if you're right, just follow the instructions because the BDM-010 and 020 have different internal placement for some minor components that can make for a major headache if you skip steps or jump ahead. The LED kit was, thank the electronic gods above (and ExtremeRate) that there was NO soldering whatsoever and they even supplied the PVC tape to keep the one end from shorting out (merely as a precaution) and to keep some of the other circuit strips from getting bend or tangled. Very thoughtful of them! The placement of the circuit strips/wiring was spot on and not wild amounts of extra length to contend with. The ease of which the parts went it (again TAKE YOUR TIME and PAY ATTENTION), was like a breath of fresh air. Directions on each of the videos that I watched for all three pieces (front shell, back shell, LED kit) were perfectly paced, very precise, and even included moments of pause to highlight where each screw would come out/go in, and even had little arrows to show you which direction to turn them so they wouldn't get stripped. Included in the package was a small screwdriver designed for the screws, a small baggie of extra screws, and a plastic pry tool/spudger. They indeed placed everything in the box that you would need so you wouldn't have to scramble looking for something to use. Again, a very contentious and thoughtful company that wants to make sure you and your product succeed. The instructions for using the LED kit once fully assembled was great and straight forward. In the future, I will definitely be purchasing one for my second controller as well as an additional new front and back shell replacement. Thank you once again, ExtremeRate, for making not just my controller level up... but everyone else who gets one.

Finally an led kit without these rings which have these adhesive. Thanks for this extremerate. Maybe I buy one of these.

Nice you guys finally made it so the LEDs don't go over the thumbsticks! I'll be making an install video and review on my channel

This is so much easier and more complicated at the same time. Definitely a step up though. I'll be buying these in bulk real soon

Very helpful. I used to do this with PS4 remotes but those were hell with soldering. Jesus Christ this is 10x better! thanks for this easy process

Just installed this on my controller...a few hairy situations with a cable or two and not pressing the joysticks on hard enough but all worked out in the end has worked perfectly so far. 👍

Thanks for video I watched twice and installed my LED RGB kit v3. Also great music 🎶. I will be building another one.

habe es mir gerade bestellt bin ja mal gespant und ich finde es cool das es da zu ein video giebt wie man es zusammen bauen soll 😀

Can't wait to do this along with adding the back buttons. Finally has the LED Sync feature.

So for these led kits, do you have to use the buttons they give you?? And can you put this on a scuf controller?

Can the LED button colors be set to always match the touchpad LED?

I installed this all correct no pinched wires or anything I've modded a few of my sons ps5 controllers....I press the PlayStation button it all lights up then shuts off??? Any feedback would be rad

Do you know why my controller isn’t Changeing colors after I installed all of it

Would love the bdm 020 version

had to tweak it a little but it works fine! would recommend

Is there a way or product you have that will change the blue led lights on the sides of the controller?

Are these compatible with a bdm 30 and how do you know if your controller is a bdm 30 because im currently having problems putting this together and the orange strip isnt long enough to reach

Followed this video as best as I could got excited but no luck

Got the Rise Remap installed and the LED Kit on its way :D Wich wires should be used?

I bought one but after taking apart my controller my circuit board and wiring is different much thiner white straps and this video go fat brown strips could still use this or have purchase something different

I'm so confused. My controller can't turn and the led turns red when I plug it with the battery. I can't use my controller or turn on the led

Please make a Video how to install this kit with the remapping kit. Thanks :)

Do you have a video for this kit and the rear buttons for installation?

I can enter the colour change mode and the LEDs are flashing, but I cannot change any colour. The right arrow does not accept the action. In the menu, however, the right button works. Please help

I had the older Version to this and it would drain my battery even if I didn't have the lights on I wonder if the fixed this problem with this version

I installed this on my controller and it works. However, it is not allowing me to change the color despite following the instructions at the end. can someone help me with this?

Hey who can I put on a back paddle and this on this video I’m confused because they’re supposed to connect on the same part

im having a problem where once i screw in the back plate, the joysticks dont move back to the center

Any chance you can release this with normal/original looking buttons in the future? Would totally get it but the weird buttons are a deal breaker for me rn

I really wish I had a controller compatible with your products 😭 when will you guys come out with 3rd gen stuff?

Can I purchase a pre-made from your company directly? Cool kit but I'm lazy and am willing to pay extra 🖤

How do I get into the settings to select the different lighting modes? The description says: 7 different colors, red, green, yellow, cyan, blue, pink, purple. And with slow blink and fast blink, there are 9 different modes.

Hello, is this compatible with the RISE4 Remap Kit?

I have installed the LEDs and everything and when I try to turn them on, nothing and this is the 2nd board I’ve gotten. Any suggestions?

I do not have insulated tape. Will that be a problem? None came in the packaging.

Can the led and mouse click buttons be used together?

Can't turn on or off and change coloros?

Completed the mod last year and worked great for many months. However now the controller doesn't come on, it doesn't even charge anymore, any tips for a fix?

This was easier than I thought and worked out nicely. My only complaint is that I installed your buttons on 2 separate controllers, and the share and start buttons seem short and don't protrude out as far as on a stock controller. It still all works, however. Other than that, this and the clear blue shell are solid products. Thanks!

Will you be able to implement the non circle joystick led process on the Switch Pro Controller boards? This is truly revolutionary!

12:50 wanted to ask how hot the part was and wanted to buy it from amazon

In my case, the power connection for the battery is too thick for the housing,Now all the buttons don't work because they're squashed Is there another tutorial for the other Battery connection

Nice. I understand cleaner. Good😊😊

Looks good!

can i instal the rgb and clicky button together at the same time

I bought it but there was a problem It looks like I have a different version of the joystick and it didn't fit 😕😕

Looking to build a controller following this video i have 2 questions if you can help please 1 whats your ebay name 2 how do you know what model your controller is

LED won't power off, and I can't change colors (stuck on Red). I double checked the DTF LED Flex Cable connection and it is aligned to the columns of middle frame bracket (as per the FAQ section of this video). The Gamepad Tester (PC) shows B6 stuck at 1.00 and the L2 button is Black on the screen. How can I fix this? Thank you in advance.

Hi eXtremeRate Is this compatible after adding the following modules : eXtremeRate Face Clicky Kit eXtremeRate Clicky Hair Trigger Kit eXtremeRate RISE4 Remap Kit ? I have already installed these 3 modules on my controller.

I were perfect at installing but I accidentally cut off the FPC cable 😢 It with be amazing if I can get the free one

So the custom flex cable is literally just for the rise kit?

so I can't mod it to led v3 + back button 2.0 at the same time right?

i installed this on my controller, and the lights, and buttons all work fine. EXCEPT. the combination to turn the lights on/off or switch the colors does not work for me. any ideas on what to do?

What I do if I can’t get my lights to change colors ?

If only there was a way to have the face buttons light up in their original colours. 🔺️ = green ○ = red X = blue □ = pink

Would love to see this for the Bdm-030 series controllers. I just picked up my Ps5 for Christmas. And both of my controllers are bdm-030 🤷‍♂️

I did what you said perfectly. I did not mess up at and still my controller is fucked

Its working together with your Paddle Set?

How can I change the colors to just white? I feel like white only exists in the colorchanging mode…

I put everything in order lights work but for some odd reason I can't start anything with the X button on ps5 any ideas?

Does anyone had a problem with buttons not responding in game? At home buttons is working normally, but when I start a game doesn’t respond.

The lights turn on but won’t turn on by doing the command

Mine isn't turning off and it's not changing colors

I tore the little hole at the end of the led ribbon cabble😢

Do one for Dualsense edge + video

I lm stuck at red led. I cant change the colors. Can’t turn off.

Will you ever release a version for the BDM-030? thnx

Please make an installation video for installing hall effect triggers on a PS5 Controller THAT WOULD BE LEGENDARY THANK YOU!

The installer of the led does not fit how can I fix it

does this work with the paddles

Hey I can’t play any games when I press x to start the game it doesn’t work

Is possibile to mount it with the remapping kit?

i installed and tried this and my middle touch pad doesn’t register

Nice ... I have one Problem my L2 tast is Stuck

Thank you extremerate today got me From Amazon And i Installed to my controller ps5 BDM-020 and everything Is good without any problem ❤

I got it for the ps4 controller end up great but did not last... It killed my controller 🎮 battery 🔋 in 1 month only... I'm have ordered new battery from AliExpress hopefully it will make it work again

Is there a way to make it fit a bdm030?

does this work with the rise 2.0 kit?

I have the remap kit taking up the slots for the flex cable, so where do I plug the flex cables from this led v3 kit to?

I can't get it to change color, seems like a popular comment here, any advice??

U got any new wiring for the new bdm controllers? Bought ur product but the orange connector doesn’t align and is to short, also the second wiring doesn’t have a place to connect the big one n bending the R2 button.

What do you do if you cut the wrong piece I cut 20 instead of 10.

I followed all the steps and i chant get it to turn on

I don’t understand the point of taping one end to the back of the battery. Why is it even there if it’s not plugged into anything?

will this kit wear down and eventually start turning on by itself and over consuming the controller's battery like the previous LED kits on your other models or has this issue been addressed?

My lights come on but the controller won’t connect to the ps5. The LEDs also only stay on if the controller is plugged in. The ps button or anything doesn’t work and I’m not sure where I went wrong.

Is there a way to make these work with bd-040 model controller? If not this sucks and i just wasted money on either the controller or on this set....

Will you guys plan to make rear shells for the xbox elite series 2? I've really been wanting to fully customize my elite controller but haven't been able to because there isn't any company that makes rear shells for it yet

Very important question what do you mean or what does it mean BDM 010 and BDM 020 like if I cut 10 off or 20 will it do something different or are you supposed to cut 20 off??? Edit: ok my fault I see the importance in between the two now but there is one question that can help me how do I check if my controller is a BDM 010 or BDM 020?

I wonder if you would be able to add both the led kit and Rise4 Remap kit together to the Dual Sense controller?

It worked at first but now it just flashes orange twice. I opened the controller up and plugged the matters straight to the remote and it worked just fine. Is there a way around this bug?

My speaker does not work, I already checked the correct position 13:23 and it does not work. no funciona mi altavoz, ya cheque la posición correcta 13:23 y no funciona.

Only the led is activated to map the buttons without touching anything on the ps4 controller with extremerate v2. Any solution

is there a bdm-30 version?

My controller doesn’t have a rubber pad.. 17:28

I have a question i already installed it but it's not turning on the controller what can I do ?

Can I buy only the buttons an thumbsticks ? Because I have this led Kit but other buttons

Anyone know how to reset controller? I’ve recently over clocked my controller an it’s acting weird- I don’t know if it’s stick drift or the software

If the light was dimmable, would also be nice

Work with bdm 030 ?
