I've got a wireless controller, and while it connects and will respond, the triangle, and sometimes the L1 button won't respond. It's not a matter of pressure; the controller is brand new so stuck buttons aren't the problem. In fact, the buttons will depress easily enough, it's just that these two buttons don't register hardly, if at all. It seems to be somewhat random actually. I mean, once the triangle button worked, it wouldn't respond for several seconds, but when I waited a moment, hit it again, it worked then.

If any help can be given I would appreciate it. Also the controller I'm using is the official licensed one made by Katana. Here's a link if you need any visual references.

if its under warenty return it and get another 1.the only other thing i can think of is taking it apart and cleaning it (that will void your warrenty if its under warenty).might even be a problem with the wireless reciever and not the controller itself.

custom built gaming pc from early 2010,ps2 with 15 games all original,ps3 500gbs with 5 games all original,yamaha amp and 5.1channel surround sound speakers,46inch sony lcd smart tv.

Unfortunately I've had it for two months, so the warranty has expired. Worse news? I've barely even used it. >_< Would some compressed air help clean it? I'm really not fond of the idea of accidentally messing something up? Also, if the issue may be with the receiver, how would I troubleshoot that? I mean it's probably going to be harder than blowing some dirt out, and I'm not to sure if the receiver even can be opened.
