ElecGear Replacement Joystick and Drift Fix PCB for Controllers, Analog Stick Controller Sensor Thumbsticks for PS5, PS4, Xbox, Xbox Elite, Switch Pro and more by ALPS and FU, Models from EL1 to EL7

Take some patience and some time don't know what you're doing you can't mess your board up but it worked as described and works great then it in a PS4 Remote that I had for a while that had some bad drift and it fixed it thank you

dropped right into the A1/A2 dualshock3... Just gotta bend some pins. Feels better than stock imo. Stock sticks tend to lock and have a bump in the tension, these are just slightly smoother.. may just be new, hard to tell for sure but the pad feels new again and I've got a couple spares now. They're teal tho and don't get the wrong idea these are not the green 4pin hall-o pots.

Dropped these into two ps4 controllers, one original and one aftermarket, that were both having a stick drift issue. These replacement joysticks fixed the issue on both controllers with no issues and have held up well since. Found the hardest part is definitely ripping out the old joysticks. Some knowledge of soldering and removal of old solder is required for this. Not sure if I would have been able to get this done without my solder wick and solder pump. Easiest way wound up being separating the potentiometers from the joystick before removing each piece individually. I added a little bit of solder to each connection since the old solder wouldn’t wick at first, then used solder wick to pull off as much solder off of each connection as possible. Then, I used my iron to heat pins on alternating sides of each potentiometer and wiggled them out as I did this, then did something similar for the rest of the joystick with the attached button. I then used my solder pump to clear out each pin hole of solder. From here, dropping in and soldering the new joysticks was hassle free.

I bought this set of analog sticks to replace an old one that was experiencing some drift for an original Xbox One controller. The first one I put in worked, as in no more drift, but one side was much more sensitive than the other. This was my very first soldering attempt, so I think it might not have been soldered on completely flat to the circuit board, and if you look at the way the joystick covers go on over the analog sticks they need to be precisely lined up otherwise they wont function correctly. I popped off the covers and just moved the sticks themselves and the movement became much more uniform, so I believe that might be a common problem. Either way, I de-soldered the new analog stick and re-soldered on a different one from the pack, this time making sure it was flush to the circuit board and held it firmly while soldering on a couple corner pins. This one works great, it needs to be broken in a bit, but it is within the ballpark of functioning at 100%. As for comparing to the old, original analog sticks, the new ones are the exact same brand ALPS, and look exactly the same. If they aren't OE, its a very well done replica. The screwdrivers were a nice touch, too. As for longevity, I'll update if the new stick starts to go bad.

There are little feet on the bottom of the base. This means, they don't sit flush with the PCB. For PS3 sixaxis and dualshock 3 controllers, there won't be enough clearance to use standard PS3 thumbsticks, I used dualshock 4 thumbsticks instead but they are much shallower and don't feel too great. However, cutting off those feet might not fix the issue. You see, this manufacturer EXPECTS that these modules will drift and include an extra little POT adjustment module that mounts underneath the joystick module between the PCB. I didn't even see the POTs but they're in the box, and you should definitely use them because my right stick has drift and I have to desolder them now just to be able to adjust it.

These work great on PS5 controllers did not have to add any of the included capacitors for drift.

I used this (EL3 model) to repair a Nintendo Switch Pro controller. There are many variants of this part, so it's great that these are all listed as explicit options when ordering from ElecGear. The first part I ordered (from a different vendor) wasn't exactly the same so it didn't work. Also if you're doing this repair and your symptom is that the joystick doesn't register its full directional input (typically up/down on the left controller) you can repair it without having to desolder the whole sensor module. You can carefully bend the green housing that holds the potentiometer away from the module, and remove the small gray circular insert with metal spring contact. Then replace it with the same gray insert and metal spring contact from the new module. No soldering required.

Installed to fix the left stick drift. Now installed, it will not work in the Y axis, only 23% left to right. Tried to calibrate on github.io and it won't work.

المنتج ممتاز جدا وقد تم تركيبه على ذراع XBOS X وعمل بكفاء ممتازة بنسبة 100%

Öncelikle lehim ve montaj-demontaj yapma alışkanlığınız yoksa hiç bu tip ürünleri alıp kumandanızı yanlış bir işten dolayı kullanılmaz hale getirme riskine girmeyin. Bu yorumu yazdığım tarihte (27.11.23) ortalama 250-350 TL karşılığında değişimi yapan tamirciler var. Eğer lehim montaj-demontajı ben yaparım diyorsanız; Xbox kumandanızda herhangi bir yöne doğru otomatik olarak hareket ertme durumu varsa (Controller drift) bu parça aradığınız doğru yedek parça olacaktır. Elinizdeki modele göre seçim yapmaya dikkat etmenizi öneririm (ben EL4 aldım) Kumandanızın ve içerideki sorunlu parçanın demontajı için youtube üzerinden birçok videodan referans alabilirsiniz. Eğer elinizde lehim sökme aleti (ısılı) varsa işiniz çok kolaylaşacaktır. Bazı videolarda hava ısıtıcılı aletler ile demontajlar var, hava ısıtıcı ile söküm teccübeniz yoksa yaparım deyip denememenizi öneririm. Ürün bana ulaşıp değişim yaptıktan sonra 2 aydır kullnamktayım herhangi bir sorun olmadı. Küçük bir kutu içinde geliyor. Hem kutu içinde hem kutu dışınca zarar görmemesi için gayet güzel paketlenmişti. Amazon'a hızlı ve sağlam teslimat için teşekkür ederim.

Works just like the original joysticks of the ps4, unlike some of the cheaper options on Amazon

Se ajusto perfecto al joystick y funcionó bien.

tres bien
