i tried that also. doesnt work. even take out the thumbstick and spray with contact cleaner also doesnt work. lucky the replacement thumbstick is quite cheap, but the feeling is not the same as the original one, a bit stiff, but after a while i get used to it.

1 year+, my left joycon recently shows symptons of drifting. How do you guys solve the drifting problem? Frankly, i seldom use the joycon as i always play with Pro and other controllers at home. Joycon only used when outside.

i'm not sure what caused the drifting, i dont think its because of the dust buildup coz when i disect the thumbstick there are no build up of dust or anything, im suspecting the metal inside that handle the direction input is bend or the film itself is broken, the only way is to replace the whole thumstick for my case.

and no, the moment you open this, you cannot assemble it back.

A bit sad the quality is a bit lacking. Coz its the most expensive controller out off all console. My ps4 and xbox controller all working fine for more than 2 years of heavy use. I hope the pro controller quality is better

I replaced my left thumbstick. It's not the same as the original thumbstick no matter how similiar it is. The feeling is off. I won't ever replace the right thumbstick as the right stick is more for aiming in shooting games. Pray it last long.

the clone one the build internally is a bit different. The supposed original parts is a bit expensive, around 20usd. not gonna gamble it anyways. but yeah, the feeling is totally different. much stiffer.

if you have drifting right also worse, you cant use motion to aim as it overwrite it with right thumbstick movement. if you still have warranty, better send back as they can fix it. but not for me, i can wait for the rma process.

if your unit is under maxsoft maybe can direct rma with them. not sure whats the process. but buying with the seller online without physical shop might be a bit though. good luck bro
