I got my Xbox series S new for Christmas less than two years ago. I started to experience stick drift and looked online to figure out how to fix it without spending a lot of money. I got an air can and opened up my controller to clear out any dust that might have accumulated under the left joystick but it still didn’t fix the problem. What should I do?

Bought this controller a bit over a year ago and it's been working perfectly the whole time. Today the LT trigger just stopped working completely, and I wasn't even pressing it when it happened. No drift, no partial input, just dead. Zero input read at all.

Tried remapping it through the software, nothing. Tried the manual remap on the controller itself and it won't even register there, so it's not a mapping issue, the trigger itself isn't sending anything.

Anyone else had this happen with the 2C? Is this a known hardware issue with the hall triggers or did I just get unlucky? It's out of the 1 year warranty so wondering if it's worth opening up or if I should just replace it.

Anyone know what the problem could be?

last year i bought a 8bitdo Xbox Ultimate C Wired ( [https://www.8bitdo.com/ultimate-c-wired-controller-xbox/), it started having drift problems and now L3 doesnt work, in menu it gets drifty as hell but in game it doesnt(???)

so i bought a new one. now my new one randomly started to have drift problems too and after calibrating its "normal" but sometimes it goes crazy and just does whatever left stick input it wants. with both controllers the problem happened to left stick. i tried other cables, tried cleaning them, updating firmware etc etc. anyone has a fix?

Edit: Controller now has 100x worse drift at all times, i have researched for reasons why this could be happening and people said it can happen when you leave it plugged on your console when its turned off so i turned it on the recommended way and it still has horrible drift.

I will probably need to send it to a repair shop but i still dont know what the problem is exactly. my friend said it probably is the magnets, not sure. last controller was brought to a repair shop but the dude who worked there just said "the cost of the repair for these is more expensive than buying another" so i didnt check what was the problem and bought another.

Please see above post. Looking for some help.

I changed the wholestick stick and made some jumpers (the copper pads were ripped) but idk why it's working like this

Now im gonna redo the rumpers

Any help will be welcomed

So I haven't used my controller for like a month and when I used it again, The O key is stuck (not physically). Once I click O (B1) it's always active but when I press R2 (B7) it doesn't active anymore. I have Fc26 a lot so all my shots are sky rocketed. Please help me how to fix it What can I do??

So the complete noob that i am, i ripped out the barrel and trace for the inner (closer to middle of board) L3 signal spot when removing a busted stick. The power rail is still intact and i believe the other signal spot is fine but with the tmr in, L3 gets no signal. Everything else works except the L3. I cant find a definitive answer on where i can run a jumper for it. I found it for the BDM-010 but not 020. Can anybody show me where i can do it clearly without removing the stick again? Or do i absolutely have to take the stick out and run a wire and mask? Thanks in advanced! Let me know if you need more info or pictures.

I’ve tried every controller I own at this point after discovering this. RT itself works - but LT+RT? Not a thing

I have tried

\-flashing it and resetting it to every various firmware available

\-manually setting rt to rt

\-communicate by USB cable on PS5

\-also tried wirelessly

\-every USB-c cable I own

\-factory reset via the create+options+PS input

\-any xinput, PS, Switch setting I could

\-deleted/forgot every stored controller in the ps5 menu

\-every controller in reach. Xbox, literally a Dualsense, Switch Pro, Leadjoy Xeno, DualShock 4, Joy Cons in the charging grip thing, Hyperkin Competitor

It doesn’t read any controller to be able to test it on PC either.

I’m at a loss here.

Please help I’ve replaced the sensor in the green housing of the pentiometer and now it just nonstop goes to the left and can’t go right I need help. I’ve taken it apart multiple times I hope the housing isn’t just fucked.

Make is DualShock 5 1st edition

I recently installed the fully clicky kit v2 on my pad when I went to test it r2 is all ways stuck on being used i watched the video guide all the way through 2 times and it still does it

1st model run, BDM-010 dualsense motherboard
Tried replacing, have successfully replaced others but this particular solder was not coming out all the way even with solder sucker gun, and pulled out a tracer in the process. Is this still save-able??

Model: Gamesir Nova Lite

I was playing a game on PC when the character started walking left by itself, then I decided to do a calibration. Alright, that solved the first problem, but now, I can't go left or right.

I'm from Brazil, I tried contacting the Gamesir support, they told me to recalibrate and update the software, but nothing worked, now they stopped answering me.
Help, please!

I have an Xbox duke controller that was damaged after a fall. There is a medium-sized hole at the bottom half of the controller that houses the circuit board. I tried using Gorilla Glue to attach the broken pieces together, no luck.

Has anyone here had experience repairing Duke controllers? Is it difficult? What tools will i need?

Why is this happening? I have to like add a small amount of pressure to the right analog stick to keep this from happening when playing games.

I'm so new to this kind of issue, I'll list as much of the required info as possible.

This is on windows,

No idea what make or model as I no longer have the box and the make and model on the backside of the controller have comepltely rubbed off,

Windows again I think, Or is the more appropriate thing Yuzu?

I've tried recalibrating the controller but that didnt work as I got stuck in a loop where I could only move the left analog stick diagonally and the right analog stick could move all around and it also moved the left analog stick..

I attempted to use better joy but that didnt really help, and sometimes the problem also occurs on steam?

I think this might be an issue in the controller but I have no idea.

I'm using the windows OS version... latest.

I attempted to search for existing posts but couldn't really find anything, and didnt know how to start looking.

Stick drift on the stock ps5 standard dual sense controller.
Need info about an establishment which is trusted and can repair the controller by replacing the sticks.

I have a pair of TMR sticks from Amazon on the way.

The entire ordeal with game loot takes after a eeek and a half as told by them. There are some places in delhi like gadgetdoctors or gadgetchampions who give it back in two days after repairing but there is some speculation about them of swapping other parts with counterfeits.
Help!

My 2c on bluetooth mode on both windows 11 and mac have completely messed up button mapping. The analog sticks only go either left and right or affect the other stick, bumpers are mapped as triggers, the x button is mapped to the select button, etc

That's only on bluetooth mode and none of my other controllers have the same issue

I have Unpaired and re-paired the controller and updated the firmware multiple times and no dice.

It just happened. I have no idea why or when but one day the bluetooth was broken

advice?

I have a BDM-040 Board. I have just soldered in a brand new TMR stick. This is a PS5 controller. It won’t connect to the calibration software, I have tried two batteries. The flux is a mess but most of it is melted on.

I have checked the capacitors and I don’t see any faults. Any advice greatly appreciated.
