Usa el spudger para hacer palanca suavemente en el botón L1 y sacarlo del mando, manteniendo el dedo sobre el botón para que no se expulse.
Tried prying from the front of the buttons as pictured and my spudger broke off in the gap. A video I watched showed them being pried off from the back (between the R1/R2 and L1/L2 buttons) which seemed much easier.
Agree with Lora's comment above. I was able to use an old credit card to take L1/R1 out this way. I pressed down the L2/R2 button to create space to work in, then came in from between L1/L2 and R1/R2. It's easy to pop one of the outer corners first then you can work the credit card around the top and the rest falls out.

Repita el paso anterior para quitar el botón R1.
What I didn't see addressed anywhere (here or in other similar articles) is that replacement R1 / L1 buttons can be differ enough to be un-usable depending on which model your ps5 controller is. The ones I ordered don't fit and now I can't find a way to be sure I get the right ones because few know there's even a difference.
Did you already figured it out? The version the we need yo use?, We are in the same situation here.

There are four more clips/hooks hidden in the seams along the outer sides of the handles. If you pull open the controller as shown in this step, then you will shear off the two tiny clips which are right next to the R1 and L1 buttons.
Therefore, you should first release those clips by prying the seams open sideways.
I noticed this with the updated design of the controller, not sure whether the hooks are present on the first version.
The hooks are not critical for the integrity of the controller as the two halves are held together by the screws hidden under the buttons. The damage does show that the controller has been taken apart.
Thought I'd clarify: The clips next to the L1 and R1 are on the outer side from the L1 and R1 buttons, I'd suggest zooming in on the picture to see them. They're quite easy to break, but also easy to remove using the plastic spudger along the seam, bending the bottom cover outwards
I am still strugling to find the clips. Could someone point them out in the image with a screen shot or something like that.
I keep getting stuck at this step too with the new DualSense CFI-ZCT1WA revision. The top and bottom shells seem like they are fused together next to L1/R1 but I can't seem to be able to find where these hidden clips are located. My controller is still in warranty so I don't want to break them in case I can't fix my issue.
but also easy to remove using the plastic spudger along the seam, bending the bottom cover outwards
I tried this but it seems that the you need a lot of force and I ended up bending the tip of my spudger. Are you sure it's not the top cover that you need to pry away? The bottom cover has a ridge to make sure it's under the top cover so it's not easy to bend outwards.
@samomio I think there needs to be a step added for these new clips.
Ok, not seeing a lot of motion on this request, so I've uploaded photos of the hooks to imgur.

This guide really needs an update on this. I had a really hard time getting the forward clips to release even after referring to the comments above. Pretty sure I broke them in the end. No big deal but would be great if the iFixit experts could work out a good method for releasing them.
I finally figure it out!!
The hidden clip is very tricky but once you understand how it works it is easy to remove.
Use Sean's picture: https://imgur.io/a/7NWmQi5
What sean is showing, is actually the bottom shell of the seam.
To disassemble
1. Use the flat side of the spudger, pry the bottom seam OUTWARDS near the R1/L1 button hole.
2. (most important) While prying the bottom shell seam outwards, push your thumb on the upper shell and push outward as well (you can do this by applying pressure from the removed R1/L1 button hole towards the seam. And then it will disassemble automatically
And that's it!

1. Use the flat side of the spudger, pry the bottom seam OUTWARDS near the R1/L1 button hole.
2. (most important) While prying the bottom shell seam outwards, hold your thumb on the upper shell as anchor and then use your other finger to pry the bottom edge of the controller up away from the shell. If you are doing the first step, then don't worry about breaking the clip, just force it open. And then it will disassemble automatically
And that's it!
Yes! Thanks a bunch Penn. That did the trick! Much appreciated

I managed to do it just by pulling harder than what I was already doing. And I don't think I broke anything. So, for me at least, the technique described in this guide worked.
The video linked below clearly shows how to open the controllers with the extra clips near the L1/R1 areas.
See a video here by How To X on YouTube... https://youtu.be/djIvRoclr_E?si=dKFpQCZe...
I really struggled with releasing the rest of the back panel (close to the shoulder buttons.) What finally seemed to do the trick for me, was doing both sides at once with upward turning motion of the back panel with the shoulder buttons approximately at the axis. Trying to release just one side and then the other felt impossible without potentially breaking the case.
This was what did it for me

Usa un par de pinzas o tus dedos para desconectar la batería de la placa base.
Tweezers aren't gonna grip that the way you need.
For those having trouble using tweezers to pull out the connector, you can grab below the lip of the connector and use the controller as a lever to pull it up as seen here Sustitución de la pila del controlador DualSense v2
This little trick helped me so much and I believe it should be shown on this guide as well.

Toma la lengüeta inferior del cable de cinta del micrófono con los dedos o con unas pinzas y desconéctalo de la placa madre.
These ribbon cables have small tabs on either side you can use to help pull out the cable. You can slightly pull up, alternating between the two sides, to slowly wiggle the connector out.
I tried to use metal tweezers to pull this out and absolutely shredded the ribbon in the process. It's just a microphone so I wouldn't expect it to matter but now none of the games get any input from the controller even though the controller works fine in the home menu 🥲
Probably just use your fingers if you have the dexterity for it.
As others have said, try to only remove the ribbon and not the white connector. I'd advise holding down the white connector with something (perhaps your prying tool or finger) as you pull the ribbon out gently with the tweezers.
Best to avoid pulling out the white connector if possible - but its not the end of the world if you do accidentally pull it out, as I did. You can put the connector back in but you need to be very precise with the alignment over the 6 pins it connects to on the circuit board. I had to use a magnifying glass and it took me a few attempts. -

Levanta el soporte de la batería fuera de la placa base.
Black and red wires fit neatly under the lower left and lower right arms of the battery bracket, to avoid potential damage when reconnecting the rear case.
This needs to be noted. Thanks!

Toma la lengüeta del cable de cinta del ensamblaje del gatillo derecho con unas pinzas o con los dedos y tira hacia arriba para desconectarlo de la placa madre.
If your cables are blue and in a different position, don't sweat. It's all good. Just do the same as they do and if you feel it is necessary, label with a sharpie left and right on each cable. A simple L and R works for this case

Agarra la lengüeta del cable de cinta del ensamblaje del gatillo derecho con unas pinzas o con los dedos, y tira hacia arriba para desconectarlo del ensamblaje del gatillo.

Retira el cable plano.
Depending on the revision of your controller, these ribbon cables may be slim and white and if you remove it completely, you might have to remove and tear down the trigger assembly to get the ribbon cable back in.
maybe I'm missing something but in this case it doesn't seem to me like these cables need to be outright removed.

Guía con cuidado los joysticks a través de la carcasa frontal y levanta la placa madre para sacarla.
My motherboard wouldn't just lift right out. So I noticed there's also a pair of barely visible small black clips, one on each side of the motherboard, holding it down. One is right beside the battery connector and the other's directly across on the opposite side of the motherboard right beside the ribbon cable connector.
Such a good observation!

That helped a lot. If you can push those tabs it comes out a lot easier. I used my tweezers to push the left one and then as others had said pushing on the joysticks from the front of the controller makes it much easier.

Just push on the sticks. Pops out like a charm, zero effort.

Utiliza un soldador para desoldar los cables del motor de vibración de la placa madre:
-
Dos cables rojos
-
Dos cables negros
but how do I solder them back and at what temperature. I’m a kid that’s why i’m asking. Also should i wear gloves . My controllers black wire disconnected so this is why i’m asking and yes i know how to do it and i will be supervised. I watch I Tronics fix’s videos so i’ma a big fan of him and all i know about this kind of stuff is from him.
The temperature will depend on the solder and tip you are using. Start at 180°C (360°F) and increase temperature as needed.
—
To solder the wire back on:
1. Place the end of the wire on the solder pad on the motherboard. Use something to hold it in place while you work, like helping hands.
2. Heat up your soldering iron and touch the tip to the solder pad for 15-30 seconds to get it hot.
3. With the soldering iron and wire touching the pad, use the tip of your soldering iron to melt just enough solder to cover the wire and pad. Remove the solder and soldering iron tip as soon as enough solder melts onto the pad.
—
Wearing gloves and safety glasses is a good idea if you’re new to soldering, and practice on something else first. Read our soldering guide before you start too.
What if I want to leave the vibration motors out? Is there anything special that has ti=o be done?
In addition to the 2 red and 2 black wires, my controllers also have 2 yellows and 2 greens. So 8 wires total. I'm going to remove all of then and then install in reverse order. Wish me luck!
Dieser Schritt wirt einfach unmöglich ich habe für 2 Stunden damit vergeblich gekämpft auch nur eines der Kabel zu lösen. Und das mit meinem Lötkolben auf 450°C. Wie es mit "optimierten" ent-löt tools aussieht konnte ich nicht testen, da ich es vermutlich für immer aufgeben werde Dinge die Löterfahrung benötigen zu repairieren.
Kurz gesagt, versucht diese Reparatur garnicht erst, wenn ihr nicht SEHR viel erfahrung habt. Kauft euch lieber einen pre-gemoddeten Kontroller (was ich jetzt vermutlich machen werde). -

hello @samomio
in this guide there is missing one step, before current step “Remove the midframe”, there should be also "Remove the light guide” as e.g. in your other guide “Sony DualSense Controller Trigger Assembly Replacement”
by the way, thanks for the guide, it also helped me out to remove the vibration motors
kind regards
