ElecGear JDS-055 PS4 DualShock 4 Charging Port Replacement

If your PS4 DualShock 4 controller stops charging properly, has a loose Micro‑USB jack, or suffers intermittent connection problems, this ElecGear repair kit supplies two direct‑replacement JDS‑055 charging port modules with 12‑pin flex cables plus a PH000 precision screwdriver to complete the swap. The JDS‑055 is intended for the most recent DS4 revisions that shipped with some PS4 Slim and PS4 Pro units; it is compatible with FJDS‑050, FJDS‑055 and JDS‑050 variants but not with earlier JDS models. Carefully verifying your controller’s internal board before ordering avoids mismatches.

How will this JDS‑055 module fix my controller's charging problem?

Replacing a worn or damaged Micro‑USB socket restores the physical and electrical connection used for charging and wired communication. The new board is factory‑compatible with the DS4 V5 layout and uses the 12‑pin flex cable format to attach securely to the controller’s mainboard.

• Replaces worn pins or bent contacts that prevent charging.
• Eliminates intermittent disconnects caused by a loose jack.
• Restores full charging and USB data functions when installed correctly.

Which DualShock 4 versions use the JDS‑055 port assembly?

Sony changed the internal charger modules across DualShock 4 generations, so you must match the module type, not the external appearance. The JDS‑055 is used on the latest DS4 revision bundled with some PS4 Slim and PS4 Pro models.

• JDS‑055 / FJDS‑055 and JDS‑050 / FJDS‑050 fit DS4 V5 controllers.
• Older controllers use JDS‑001, JDS‑011, JDS‑030, or JDS‑040 variants — do not substitute.
• Open the controller and compare your charging board to product photos before purchasing.

What’s included and what tools or skills are needed?

The kit comes ready for DIY repair with two replacement Micro‑USB socket boards, two 12‑pin flex cables, and a small PH000 Philips screwdriver. Basic electronics disassembly skills are required; professional installation is recommended if you are not comfortable with delicate flex cables and ribbon connectors.

• 2× JDS‑055 Micro‑USB charging socket boards (preassembled).
• 2× 12‑pin flex ribbon cables for secure connection to the controller PCB.
• 1× PH000 precision screwdriver included; no instructions — follow a teardown guide.

Can I upgrade to USB‑C instead of replacing Micro‑USB?

Yes — ElecGear offers a separate USB‑C upgrade module (product ID B0DBZL9GFW) for users who prefer a modern connector. That is a distinct product and requires verifying compatibility before ordering.

• USB‑C upgrade sold separately; not part of this Micro‑USB kit.
• Upgrading may need additional wiring or a different adaptor board.
• Confirm fitment and follow a step‑by‑step guide for safe replacement.

Who is this for: Gamers, repair shops, and DIY enthusiasts who own a DualShock 4 V5 (DS4 compatible with JDS‑055/FJDS‑050 series) and need an exact Micro‑USB charging port replacement. Choose this kit if your controller won’t charge reliably, the jack feels loose, or you see physical wear on the port. If your controller uses an earlier JDS model, or you prefer USB‑C, check the correct product ID before buying.
