Analog joystick gets stuck to the left

The right side analog joystick on this wireless xbox 360 controller pins to the left when moved to the left. It sticks in that posistion as if there is something stuck, like the spring mechanism is backwards, making it stay to the left instead of re-centering. Any help is appreciated.

SOURCE: issue with right analog stick - Xbox 360 Controller

I'm afraid I've had the same problem and I can shed a little light on it.

I've tried to fix this but to no avail. I have even transplanted the whole analog stick unit with one from a working controller to see if it will work but I have the same problem.

So, my conclusion the problem is not with the stick itself, but with the microcontroller inside the pad which takes the info from the stick.

I took the analog unit out, and plugged the pad into the computer without it , but STILL the vertical axis on the right stick was pushing up even though there was no input from a stick. It seems to be a fault with the pad, not the analog stick.

My Xbox one controller left joystick is always moving to the right.

sounds like the microswitch is stuck. The return spring won't help resolving this. more than likely replacing the controller will be your most efficient means to resolve the issue.

PC twin shock gamepad

Switch your gamepad to 'analog' mode by pressing small button 'MODE' at the center. Light under that button should turn red (indicating analogue mode) from green (indicating digital mode).

My left joystick keeps moving things down without me moving it

Sometimes your joystick on xbox controllers can become stuck. To fix this you can do one of two things. you can ether buy a can of air used to clean out computer keyboards and spray it inside the analog stick. Sometimes if that does not work you can also disassemble your controller with a t8 torc screwdriver. Ones disassembled use hot water on and below the analog stick to get rid of unwanted grim. This should fix the problem.

My x box 360 control's left stick wont respond and moves my character walking back without me touching it

The mechanism that controls the stick breaks after a while. You can either buy a new controller, or replace the stick mechanism.

If you have experience soldering, and a soldering iron its alot cheaper. The tool to open the controller is under 2$ on amazon. If you dont have a soldering iron you can find them on google products for 25-30$. The replacement part for under 4$ on sparkfun. So you could fix it for under 36$, but it will take a bit of time as well. The directions can be found on instructables.com.

Xbox 360 controller left analog stick

If you bought it brand new, contact Microsoft ASAP.

Otherwise, no luck. Just an unfortunate side affect of playing a 360.
