PS4 controller R2 not working

My right trigger either goes 0% to 50%. Not sure if there is a fix.

Your controller is knackered. Trigger-wear (mainly with R2 because it's used the most) was a common-problem with the first DS4 controller. Within 9-18 months, you would notice it no longer reaching 100% and it would keep getting worse. It's more noticeable in games with vehicles (car racing, rocket league, that kind of thing).

Sony issued a new DS4 model last year. The only visible difference being the light bar is now visible through the top of the touchpad. But they also fixed the trigger wear problem.

TLDR: You need to buy a new latest revision DS4. On the off-chance it's less than a year old, contact Sony support immediately because they will replace it.

Ok thanks
