The same thing happened to me. I opened it and saw that the battery (supposed to be on the center kept in this possition by two plastic pieces) was loose. So it kept touching some circuits amd things. I used a piece of paper :p to keep it on the middle and it worked for about 6 months. When the problem started again I just bought a new one.

hmmm thats interesting i might try it, why didnt u just try doing it again after?

I did, but the second time I did it, it just lasted for about 6 days. So, I thought the next time it was going to last even less and gave up.

My5 years Sixaxis works perfectly. Is the Dualshock the one that stopped working after less than 2 years.

so wait there is a difference between sixaxis and dualshock?

Dualshock has vibration. It also weights more. Sixaxis doesn't has vibration. I think maybe the vibration causes certain part to get loose after certain use.
