This is the most zen tutorial I've ever watched, and it gets to the point well done

[jonathanireland]

this is a really helpful tutorial. it took me about an hour to complete ( it is fiddly to get the sensor in ) but my controller now works beautifully. it saved me having to buy a soldering iron kit or a new controller all I had to buy was a new switch kit from amazon for £6 which came with the drivers and the little plastic prying tool too. good job - thank you XQ gaming.

Gotta love the internet man. What a time to be alive. You can fix anything these days, just watch the How to video on youtube and order the parts. Thank you sir for this useful content.

Great video. My 7 year old was able to do most of the work following the instructions. I did help him with the sensor replacement section (4:40-6:20). Spent only $2 for the replacement part. He learned something valuable and earned bragging rights that were immediately used on his older brother.

This is not only an excellent tutorial for journeymen and blossoming experts alike, it is also incredibly calming and meditative to watch (im assuming partly due to the music, but also probably because there's no dialogue, and its well shot and edited). Thank you for at least a few well spent and productive minutes in this crazy-ass time we're living in atm.

I just finished replacing this sensor and my controller works great again. No more drifting. Why didn't anyone else figure this out. Nice job XQGaming.

Tysm. I had two controller. One having a joystick problem and the other one not having it. I swapped the sensors and the one that I want to work actually works completely fine now. This works to everyone that sees this and you’ve gained an extra sub brother

Lesson learned: free controllers from friends come at a cost

[travismarshall]

My mind is kind of blown right now. I've had to replace sticks for several years now and it's very easy with the right tools i.e. soldering iron, solder and desoldering pump/braid.

I've never once thought of doing anything like this and just tried it out on a stick by "transplanting" another sensor out of a stick and IT WORKS! No drift! Now, situations like this are of course for sticks that are NOT loose and feel as they should, like the stick I just fixed, yet for one reason or another drift nonetheless. This video has opened a whole new avenue for repair for me!

[SuperCerReal]

I tried this and it actually help with the stick drift. I didn't buy the sensors from you because I'm not from wherever you sell those.

I actually use some backup broken pair which had the sensors fine. I transferred them over and it worked well with one exception my right stick would completely drift up if I clicked in the stick.

Unfortunately the controller started acting up again and I lost my tools to check if it has gotten loose. Am sad

[DPrintingPiper]

Finally, a clear and concise tutorial. Thank you so much.

2 controllers fully repaired for under £20 and in under half an hour - great post, many thanks!!!

[BitFut]

You just helped me fix my controller, thank you!

[toastyy]

This worked like a charm for series x controllers too I swapped one of those disks out with one from an old Xbox one controller

[JacobBirt]

This is awesome. I've had my elite controller open for a month trying to get the solder off these contacts. This is the perfect work around.

[bigboregaming]

Excellent, I picked a faulty controller up yesterday for £5, Instead of replacing the sensor, I cleaned it in alcohol, Reassembled and now its working perfectly. Thank you so much!

[AxeManx]

Thank you so much! I had an issue where if I clicked forward on the joystick my character would sort of stutter when it walked forward or it wouldn’t move forward at all. This tutorial fixed that. I also didn’t end up having to pay for sensors because I just took sensors out of an old broken controller that was beyond my ability of repair. Your tutorial really helped. 👍

[olnumber]

Just got your sensors today and my stick drift is GONE! This vid is a perfect tutorial on how to replace them. Thank you all very much! Saved me from buying another elite.

[MrCaveman]

Bro!! Thanks!! This fix worked for me. The sensor didn’t come out as easily as in the video, but the steps were pretty much the same.

[davidcalabria]

This actually worked!! This video was incredibly easy to follow. My son is stoked he can use his favourite controller again!
