another stick drift fix 

What tools I need to access the inside of Xbox

@@mesiroy1234 No special screws, Just little X

Love your explanation of the green thing 👍🤣

Is that link for joiners only? Because its unavailable for me

I’m not able to open the link in the description.

Yes I agree you know how pissed thay would be

​@@MidnightSkullWolf not as pissed off as I am. I've swapped out this same little stupid disk 3 times over the last couple months only for it to end up drifting in a different direction

@@Jimmy-1919 Lmfao Oooooof

@@MidnightSkullWolf hahah yep, definitely miss me Playstation

@@Jimmy-1919 I grew up on PlayStation but I turned to Xbox

Thats awesome!!

So just replace them? No need to do a calibration or anything else?

​@@wicho99w99they're standardized to Xbox I doubt you'd have to calibrate them

​@@TinkerManMickdoes opening the teal blocker harm the prongs at the bottom of the pedentiometer?

@@FardMaster99if you do it too many times you’ll probably snap it off, but as long as the solder and contacts don’t either touch or break off you’ll most likely be fine.

Yet my Stadia controller still doesn't have stick drift and I played Destiny 2 for over 1500hrs on it... 😂

big corps know this, trust me give it 5 years maybe even less and the right to repair will literally be abolished. Pair that with all the new high tech things like phones, drones, consoles, controllers all have their own little defects that the manufacturer knows are prevalent in their product, but they just know us as a consumer can’t do much besides give in to their tactic and buy a 70$ controller from them directly. Honestly gonna say screw it and just learn a bit of fixing and repairing so i don’t have to be a puppet to all these company’s since there is a good amount of fix it channels out there with good tutorials.

my og xbox controller never had it lmao it jus bc they use cheap parts

LMAO "Fun fact I work out" "I know its a mechanical well recorded issue that happens to everyone but maybe it happens to me just because im too strong" bro....humble down..

To fix it they have to invent a completely new piece or go back to older software. The controller lasts 5-7 years but the module that reads the stick movement only lasts 3-15 months. Its an issue with all controllers cause they all use the same kind of module, every brand of any play station, xbox, pc and nintendo controller uses this piece. Xbox 360 and old playstation controllers lasted much longer before drifting so I think they should go back to that set up. But they cant do much to change it. The options are very limited and this was the lesser evil. A good thing is xbox is becoming a lot more compatible with mouse and keyboard, which is a different system than sticks so we can avoid this issue all together. From what I have learned its that the module burns out, literally, it slowly burns until the metal is non conductive in areas. If you replace one check to see if the metal piece on it is brown or black. That would just show that it burns the metal over time, just like how a silver pizza pan becomes bronze or brown with use. When you do this as as soon as you notice drift effecting game play, even if minuscule, and replace the module then it wont start effecting anything past it and youll have a controller for a long time. Its an investment. 5 bucks a year tops and about 2 hours of your time a year to avoid spending an hour a year to go get a controller for 60 bucks is well worth it. I have 6 controllers and 3 game players in my house so I replace this piece far more. It only takes me 15 min now to open a controller and replace this piece, and its only 10 bucks a year (cause I buy in bulk). Well worth it in my opinion. I highly recommend learning it. Ps: test the controller stick before you screw the plates back on all the way (use with plates on even though its not screwed on so you don't touch the electronics when they are running) Another ps: start by using an air can to clean dust first, sometimes that's the only issue. GL 😊

I saw a video of a guy who completely desoldered the entire unit off the motherboard, This is so much faster😂

No way

Is this a part made for this fault or the same is in other Controllers? Can you only fix it with this part or also with another controller?

@@cuethefart41 ty

@@joelh3030me too thank god I found this one first cause I was about to buy a soldering kit 😂

It's not just Microsoft thing Sony and Nintendo are just as guilty by same standards. PS5 controllers are having the same issue and also switch controllers. It seems like PS4 and Xbox one and previous controllers never had that issue. Dont know why these newer one have problems with stuck drift. Still use my Xbox one controller I got in 2013 on my series X still works like a champ!!

​@@joshuasykes4817 I've had stick drift on PS3, PS4, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X. I may just be bad with controllers lol but last gen definitely had issues with it as well

​​ @joshuasykes4817 facts man I still have my og xbox one controller from 2013 no drift but I'm on my 5th series x controller smh

​@@Trapful Get the Power A from Walmart with the $5 Warranty and just send it in everytime it starts to drift. Learned the hard way with my Elite Series II and OG Series X Controllers. MY MAN HANDS DESTROY THESE SUBPAR CONTROLLERS.

@Nighthawk Viper crazy thing is I've took my controller apart several times and replaced the disk things for the analog sticks with the powerA ones and haven't had a drift in months

I replace the washer only with a new one. It gets worse.

@jhnyjoejoe69 I just tried that and it didn't work for me

@@The_Post-apocalyptic_Few yeah it only lasted a few days then it started to fail again. These controllers suck. The OG 360 ones were easier to fix.

in the description. this is the comments section. on mobile you can access the description with the 3 dots at the top right corner of the player

The potentiometers are the only thing picking up faulty movement. The sensors are made of graphite and every console manufacture (literally all of them) should be sued for selling faulty goods.

@@dmaskell92so they just wear out over time no matter what and need replaced like this?

Exactly what i jus did on my scuf impact what is the name of the part i need to order

How

What are they called? The link isn't working 😢

@@noelnemeth6263Trimmer potentiometer.

​@@noelnemeth6263 potentiometer

​@@noelnemeth6263i found a comment that said it is a potentiometer

@@noelnemeth6263Where are y’all seeing a description in this RU-vid shorts mode? I only see descriptions for regular RU-vid videos, so i couldn’t even find the link

Yeah but you don't even have to solder anything if you get the WD-40 contactor spray just sprayed in there real good work it all around let it dry remove any hair you see and boom it's done

​@@Catch_u_reloadnidk cleaning It in my experience barely works for me. Most of my stick drift personally happens from wear and tear and doing this method is the only way to fix the issue

You put them back in the wrong way around, I've done the same. The only way to fix it is buy replacement little circle things you broke.

⁠@@garethwillisI did the same thing aswell but I put my little circle thing (potentiometer) back to the correct way and it’s resolved my issue

Because its the hardest to do and costs money

​@@seyhuh doesn't cost money just take one out of an old controller from the side it doesn't drift

yes

You put the round things back in the wrong way around that it why it won't shut. Spin them around and put them back in.

@@garethwillis ahh thank you lol i shoulda tried that

@@kylejohnson9510 exactly the same thing happened to me. It won't close properly so you squeeze harder, then the pins snap. Either buy new ones or get a new pad, even a used one. Sorry that happened to you too mate but at least you know now. I can't remember for sure which way around the go but just watch a tutorial and see which way they are configured, best of luck bud.

You say that but every time I changed that contact it stopped the drift

@jaysolo23 the 3 dots at the top has a description

Yes

It depends. If the green box is damaged you need to replace it as well

It's good to replace both so you won't have to go back in.

Replace the audio jack?

You could always just get an adapter to plug it into the console, or you can get a Bluetooth adapter....

The one replaced in the video is for left and right. The other green thing is for up and down
