D-PAD not working out of the box (Steam Deck OLED) (lemmy.ml)

I just received my Steam Deck OLED 1Tb; the screen is amazing in relation to the LCD version, however I had a problem with the D-PAD not working at all.

I did some testing, and the D-PAD was unresponsive in Gaming Mode, Desktop, and in the BIOS as well, so I figured something wrong with my hardware.

I removed the back panel, and I saw almost instantly that the cable labeled as "DPAD" was disconnected(Right side, just beside the left trigger). Reconnected and now everything is working as intended.

So for short, if something doesn't work hardware wise, contact support, but it may be worth having a look inside and see if anything is disconnected.

Happy Gaming 🎮

Pretty cool, I'm glad you got it working. I hope that's the gold standard going forward - we should be able to open up, inspect, and even fix our own devices. That used to be the case for most electronics.

I was pretty disappointed to be honest. Support also offered to replace the unit, but the problem is I am in Australia, so it would be a pain to do that.

Lucky for me Steam Deck is a quite repairable device. 😁
