You can do it!

I just did this! Thank you so much for the videos! I had a 90% drift to the right (flickering rapidly between center and 90% right). Now I only have about 5% top-left, which is much better and I think it's manageable with setting the deadzone to the minimum. If someone is planning on doing this, let me just tell you though, it's much harder than it looks and so not repair-friendly! Those screws next to the trigger on the main board are freakishly hard to screw and unscrew. They got stripped a bit and the screwdriver slipped and hit the board hard. I was pleasantly surprised no soldered component got knocked off. I know I probably can fix the remaining 5% drift if I repeat the whole thing, but I'm almost sure I'll end up ruining the controller by the second or third attempt, so I'll just keep it like this for now. I have a tip though, make sure the metal housing of the thumbstick module is very straight (the 4 L shaped clips you bend out of the way to open it) but also slightly still bent inward a bit, especially the side pieces (the 2 window shaped pieces that fit on white protrusions), then you just push it straight down on the spring and the "windows" catch the plastic nicely clicking in place, you don't even have to hold it, then just bend back the 4 L clips withouth hassle.

But, even after making sure there is contact (there is no visible gap from the side), it still shows the thumb stuck in the "touched" state all the time. Any idea on what might be causing it? I checked for continuity with the case of the transducer (and all the visible debug "pads" I could find) and there is no continuity anywhere.

Because maybe instead it's touching some other thing it's not supposed to touch? I doubt it but who knows.) I also tried repairing the controller and it didn't work. And I couldn't follow the trace to where that pad is connected to (or it's connected on the same side) which is impossible to prob when the board is screwed. Well, thank you so much anyway.

So I didn't have any issue with the detection of resting the thumb, it's just that I had a tiny (5% or so) drift after the fix, and after adjusting the deadzone in the settings, the detection of resting the thumb works fine.

The spring is actually part of the capacitive sensor. I'd find it unlikely that it's actually causing your drift.

I need to make another troubleshooting video, this is probably the most common question that comes up. The "spring" under the thumbstick cap is actually the capacitive sensor. Changes are that it is not properly seated or not making good contact with the metal case of the transducer. Pop the thumbstick cap off. Check to see that the spring is held by 4 tiny hooks. If not, thread them back on using some fine tip tweezers. When you put the thumbstick cap on, you'll have to try and make sure that it goes on so the "spring" fits all the way up under the top of the cap. It's impossible to see, so the only way you'll know, is if the sensor is working. Try replacing it straight down, without tilting the transducer stick at all that seems to help. You can also try lubricating the upper part of the spring the round round bit of the thumbstick cap with a little isopropyl alcohol. It'll help them slide together. (I wouldn't use any actual grease since it has a tendency to migrate when it gets warm. The ipa will flash off as it dries.) Hope this helps.

Explaining a transducer? Probably. Explaining the controller, none that I know of besides mine, but I haven't looked around for awhile either. It's fairly simple though. While it feels like you're moving the thumbstick in a circle, you're only actually moving it (right-left) X and (up-down) Y. Metal contacts that move in X and Y, create variable resistance, that's passed to the headset. The headset converts the X/Y resistance into coordinates, these get translated into movement. Drift starts happening when the transducers produce inconsistent values, that the headset doesn't know how to translate properly. These can be caused by bent contacts, dirt, sweat, hair or anything else making contact within the transducer itself.
