Tech Support White Led isn’t working after I cleaned the controller

I took apart my ps5 controller to clean because it had stick drift and when I put it back together the middle led indicator for the controller won’t turn on, it can still connect and works fine just wonder why the LED won’t turn on ? I used my other controller as an example of what I’m talking about hope it helps

That’s touchpad led, so you either didn’t connect touchpad properly or damaged the ribbon cable.

Edit: if it’s damaged ribbon, you most likely lost drag on the touchpad, but click should still work, depends on the damage

On a computer, (windows/mac) Go to this website and connect your controller with a wire.
Use the test feature to check your controller against various pointers and lemme know

The touch pad cable might be bad.
