PS3 GamePad Test Download - DualShock 3 Controller Test Homebrew for PS3 (zar)

[Trisha Takanawa]

Wondering whether that DualShock 3 is really dead or just playing up? PS3 GamePad Test shows every button and stick as you press it, and tests the rumble motors: L3+R3 turns on the small motor, and L3+R2 sets the large motor's speed from the pressure on R2. It's a homebrew utility for a PS3 with custom firmware, written by zar with psl1ght v2 and released on PSX-Scene after the scene asked for a PS3 version of the PS2 GamePad utility.
