About This Video:
The Nintendo Switch Joy Con controllers have analog sticks that seem to wear on a regular basis. If you use the thumbstick a lot you may find that it will start causing your character to start drifting around even when you aren't using the stick. In this video, I show you how to repair this problem.

My two cents (from Australia) I had drift problems with both blue and red controllers. I blew on the exposed section (lifting the rubber skirt below the knob of the joystick, sounds wrong maybe, but whatever), Turned the controller upside down and rubbed with a toothbrush, updated the Switch, updated the controllers and callibrated and recallibrated and it did absolutley NOTHING. Watched a video about using a non conductive contact cleaner. So I went to Bunnings and got a WD40 Specialist Fast Drying Contact Cleaner "penetrates quickly and leaves no residue. For use on electrical equipment, contacts plastic & rubber" Cost about $17. Didn't know it would work, but thought I'd take the risk before forking out $120 for a new pair of controllers. With the help of another, I lifted the skirting of the red joystick using a large pin and shot on two sides of the joystick using the cleaner, which came with a long yellow straw for precision application. Incredibly, almost magically, the red controller worked good as new after first letting it dry (to air) for about 10 minutes. I tried the blue controller and found it more troublesome. It consistently drifted north. I tried it once, twice and no change On the third try I applied the spray to the east and west sides of the joystick and after reconnecting and a quick rotation, it also now works good as new. I can't say this will work for you. But thought I'd share my experience in case you're at wits end and thinking about ordering new controllers. Good luck.

Hey, I know it's late, but did you see the cardboard fix? Apparently the back plate of the analog stick gets lose, and that's what causes drift. Putting something like cardboard or a folded playing card to smush the stick back together apparently fixes the joycon

@bugbiteme 5 лет назад

Thanks for the tutorial! I managed to replace my left-joycon thumb control. To others, this video glosses over some details. Doable, but maybe not for the novice. Disconnecting and reconnecting ribbon cables isn't as easy is it seems in this video. Notice the edits in the video when he is doing the step of connecting those and putting everything back together. Make sure you have some needle-nose tweezers and some plastic prying tools, along with the screw drivers. Take pictures along the way and don't get flustered.

@Maurader2004 4 года назад

One bit of advice: After you install the new joystick CALIBRATE THE CONTROLLER! I bought the exact replacement joystick, followed this tutorial exactly, turned on my system, and the drift was far worse than before. I was so frustrated at the thought that I'd wasted the time to do this and I'd still have to spend $80 on a new set of joycons anyway. Then my husband got home and I showed him, and he suggested calibrating the new joystick. I can't believe I didn't think of that on my own. It worked, and now my joycons are usable again!

@laconiclizard159 5 лет назад

thx, man. This worked and i only lost one screw! If you're doing this and you have no practice just go slow. Stop when you get agitated. When the buttons pop out of place just disassemble everything but the ribbons and see how it all fits together, no short cuts. The only ribbon I had to pull was the joycon ribbon. They just pull out with a tweezers, there's no clip action or anything. I really like these controllers but the drifting is maddening and a new set of joy cons only lasts half a year. Nintendo needs to redesign the control stick and do a recall, this issue is no joke. I'd be more mad but replacing the stick was sort of fun.

@Tronicsfix 5 лет назад

Sounds like you're a natural fixer!

@laconiclizard159 5 лет назад

uh... sure. Actually the new one drifted, too! But I did a calibration and now it's perfect. For a few months, I suspect. These joy cons are garbage.

Frustrated, I found this video and it looked easy enough. I have never opened ANY electronic device in my life and have been terrified to as I know I’ll mess something up. But hey, since I’ve had kids, things get expensive. So I decided to give this a try. I did buy the iFixit tool kit, which in my opinion made this repair super easy!

What if you replace the joystick and the same problem persists even after attempting a reset and recalibration? Someone suggested WD-40 Contact Cleaner but if the joystick is entirely new then cleaning it seems unnecessary. What other problems could there be? Is the controller just a lost cause?

Thank you. These joycons just seem to spontaneously fall apart. As a regular dad, I fixed 4 SL/SR ribbons, but a bad Joy Con Stick press was the newest issue. I had one Joycon I have been using for parts, and with these instructions I was able to do a transplant. Apparently the right and left sticks are the same part. Also, I did take some comment advice: RECALIBRATE after you replace the stick.

@Elestel 5 лет назад

Thanks! Although you made it for the right stick, I find it useful for the left one. It have also a weird ribbon over the final screw, but nothing impossible. Also the last step is to recalibrate the jostick. And finally, all like new. :-)

@Maurader2004 4 года назад

Same. I was doing the left joycon and just assumed Nintendo must have changed the joycon "guts" a bit at some point until my husband pointed out that the joycon in the video is the right one. lol And yes. CALIBRATE!

@CForce 5 лет назад

Guide was very helpful in replacing my out of warranty joycon sticks. For those that have this issue make sure if its within a year (or 90 days for additional joycons) that you let Nintendo repair them for free first. I had to start replacing my own sticks after my warranty ran out but I did have them repair some before I spent any money on parts. It is pretty silly these sticks seem to be failing so quick but at least make Nintendo Support work for you before you take it upon yourself.

@Tronicsfix 5 лет назад

Good points. Seems like they could make these a little better quality for sure.

I did that with both Joy-Cons replacing the Analog Sticks with Electromagnetic ones that never drifts. The originals will drift in the future. Shame for Nintendo of not replacing these Analog Sticks.

I know this is a year old and I'm just commenting for fun but tweezers will help immensely with this. I fixed a couple joy-cons for friends and family and I did it without seeing any videos on it first, and I had to run to the store to grab tweezers to hold the cable and push it into the latch after fighting with the ribbon cable for the trigger for about an hour with no success because there's almost no slack in the ribbon cable. Otherwise, just flip up the latch with a fingernail (or tweezers but be gentle), and flip down with your finger. Don't use tweezers to press those down or you'll be like me and break the latch off of your 3DS screen connector (which I still haven't fixed...) Best of luck to whoever needs this random information.

Try either of those drivers...whichever one fits. You should have the 00 in your kit though.

@@Tronicsfix I found out one that Fits, thank you very much! However I still do not have a PH 00 in my set. Its alright though since I found one that fit. Once again, Thank you very much!

I think Nintendo built the joystick with very cheap material to force us to buy the pro controller.

@@brunogava6424 yes, I mean it's a big mistake if they did that intentionally because the pro controller it's not 100% mobile

Has anyone ever gotten drifting problems from their right joy con stick? I tend to get mine from the left joy con stick.

I think I broke the whole Joy-Con. you should show how to put in the ribbon cables.

anyone success on the first time trying??? is it hard when put it back?

@matthewg.2397 5 лет назад

I succeeded for the first time! It is very easy to place it back, you just have to be very careful.

@brandon1469 5 лет назад

2:23 is nearly Impossible. The cable is so fucking short it barely reaches.. Edit: did eventually get it in place though and no more drifting 👍

Im not sure if u will read this now but i wanted to ask you if it might be possible if you make a video one of these days where you take your working switch and measure alle the caps and pins around the M92T36 chip (maybe once with charger plugged in and once with only the battery) so that we guys that want to repair our switches could have something to compare our voltage measurments to. My switch for example has a short somewhere and im getting very strange voltage readings on the board. As i dont have a working switch laying around i cant compare the measurments to know if that part of the board is working properly or not. As you know there is next to none information about switch board schematics and stuff like that. Im sure that would be a REAL big help.

@Tronicsfix 6 лет назад

I might do that if I get time...not sure if that will happen but I'll def keep that in mind.

@mgzukows 5 лет назад

If you have a short it will get hot where the short is. So what you will want to do is take a power supply and set it to something like 1 volt. You will want to inject voltage on the suspected rail. Which will be enough to heat up the area but not cause any damage. Another good way to test is put your meter in diode mode and look for a direct short to ground on the rails you are getting a strange voltage on. Then check the resistance to ground, if it's a low resistance that's your short. Use the alcohol method then to find the exact component. Then if you don't have an IR camera you can put alcohol on the suspected area and if it's getting hot the alcohol will evaporate very quickly.

@@mgzukows hey thanks for the Tipps, i was able to find the cause of the short, it was the PI3USB Chip on the back, i replaced it and the Switch works again, the only Thing that does not work anymore is Docking it to a TV but portable Mode is working perfectly

@@1995sharaku Have you checked the system on a known working dock? It's a known issue for those to fail, especially if you had USB issues before.

@1995sharaku 5 лет назад

no sadly not yet as it is the only dock i have at home, i will need to see if i can borrow a dock from someone to check if its my dock that became faulty somehow. Im just glad that i was able to fix the console partially somehow haha but thanks for your time and help i really appreciate it !

its not just the sticks, also the zl zr flex cable gets damage from the 180 degree cure it makes over the battery, terrible quality fo such high price
