Rapid fire
Created by: GBlaster
Nearly $200 to replace three broken controllers and uncountable amount of parts later; this tutorial is created in order to aid you in creating a Non‐programmed rapid‐fire mod for your PS3 safely.
This was created for non‐profit purposes that way you would not have to pay other people to have pre‐programmed controllers built or for turbo controllers.
In order to create this you need to have a somewhat basic understanding of soldering.
Please review this tutorial before attempting it.
I am not responsible for any damage caused to your Playstation 3 controller or Playstation 3 system. Tools:

Solder Gun
Solder
Wire (I believe I used 30 AWG)
Wire Cutter
Tape (Recommended)
Hot Glue Gun + Hot Glue (Recommended)
Supplies:
1) 555 Timer IC (I recommend using the TLC Low Power kind because the regular one is known to cause problems while charging or if the battery is full)‐ $1.69
2) 10k ohm resistor (R1)(Brown Black Orange Gold) ‐ $0.69
3) 56k ohm resistor (R2)(5 Pack)(Green Blue Orange Gold) ‐ $0.69
4) 1.0 uF Electrolytic Capacitor (C1) ‐ $1.19
5) .01 uF Polyester Film Capacitor (C2) ‐ $1.49
6) NPN Transistor (15 pack) ‐ $2.59
7) Momentary Switch ‐ $2.69
Price: $11.03
Total + Tax: $12.00
I recommend you buy the 100‐pack of resistors because it can be a little difficult to find the 56k resistors otherwise. ‐ $6.49 (Has both 10k and
56k resistors)
Preparation: Take apart the controller
Step 1) Place timer upside‐down and connect 7+8 using R1 (10k)
Step 2) Connect 6+7 using R2 (56k)
Step 3) Connect 6+1 with C1 (1uF)
Step 4) Connect 5+1 with C2 (.01uF)
Step 5) Connect 4+8 with a small wire
Step 6) Connect 2+6 with a small wire
